TeklaPowerFab integrates with most machinery in the fabrication shop. The most efficient of these integrations automate communication between Tekla software and fabrication shop's software by utilizing the Tekla PowerFab Open API.
The PowerFab team at Trimble was recently able to compare a workflow with SigmaNest that does not use the PowerFab API with a new workflow made possible with the Tekla PowerFab Feedback tool developed by SigmaNest that uses the PowerFab API.
What the team found was the manual steps by the user for creating a nest in SigmaNest (including sending parts to SigmaNest, creating a nest, and sending results back to PowerFab) were reduced from 10 steps to 5 steps. The steps to update PowerFab once the plate has been cut were reduced from 5 steps to 1 step. So a total user-interaction improvement from 14 to 6 steps. Even better, the steps that are now automated were the more time-consuming steps, like saving and importing reports, resulting in conservative time-savings of 80%!
When the operator completes a nest, the inventory in PowerFab is taken from stock and any relevant remnants are returned to stock in real-time, automatically. Each appropriate Tekla PowerFab production job is then updated with their appropriate TFS production station, so we see real-time production status."

Haskell Corporation uses Tekla PowerFab to manage every single part that is issued to CNC laser. Nowadays they only have to press one button instead of sending, for example, every nest back and forth manually between Tekla PowerFab and SigmaNest.
P2 Programs successfully integrated their barcode software, Steel Tracking System, with Tekla PowerFab. Now, Tekla PowerFab inventory, production, and shipping information is accurate in real-time, and it's as quick and easy as scanning a barcode label.

The American Institute of Steel Construction has developed steelXML; a better way to buy steel. As we currently stand, more than 90% of structural steel in the U.S. is purchased via a fax, or email attachment. Both of these require large amounts of human interaction in the form of manual re-entry of line items. Using steelXML will enable direct, automated communication between buyer and seller across the entire spectrum of procurement.
steelXML will allow you to process orders and inquiries more quickly, and accurately, better serving your customers. steelXML is a free, light-weight, format to convey alpha-numeric information (such as that in order and inquireis) which can be used with virtually any inventory system.
It depends how quickly it's adopted: Several participating companies have already implemented part of the schema, but to be successful, we need participation not just from software vendors, but from steel suppliers as well
In order to be successful, steel service centers, producers and software developers of MIS systems need to find time and reason to implement and support it within their systems: This is the single issue that is out of AISC's control.
If, as a fabricator you want to spend less time making better decisions in a shorter amount of time then be sure to let your software supplier and steel suppliers know. We've prepared sample letters to send them.
Top-of-Pole Mounts are designed with a collar ready to be mounted on a pole. The racks accommodate different size poles and are adjustable for optimal sun angle from 15 to 65 in 10-degree increments. They can be rotated on the pole for manual tracking. Stainless steel module mounting hardware is included. Anchor bolts and poles are not included. Standard racks have mill-finish aluminum module rails with painted steel pole collar and strong back. Mounts are available in galvanized steel and anodized aluminum.
Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB) announced today the introduction of the latest versions of its Tekla software solutions for constructible Building Information Modeling (BIM), structural engineering and steel fabrication management: Tekla Structures 2022, Tekla Structural Designer 2022, Tekla Tedds 2022 and Tekla PowerFab 2022. With the introduction, Trimble continues to advance the constructible process, which offers significant improvements in construction productivity, efficiency, and quality. The latest Tekla software supports sustainable construction and offers more automated and connected workflows across all project phases and stakeholders.
Structural BIM software Tekla Structures version 2022 enhances the design-to-fabrication workflow with in-product intelligence to create fabrication drawings, reducing the time spent creating and editing drawings. For the concrete detailing industry, the new Tekla Structures introduces reinforcement (rebar) assemblies. Primarily used in Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) workflows, this new feature solidifies the Tekla portfolio of automated element fabrication tools. Also new for the 2022 version of Tekla Structures is the inclusion of an Embodied Carbon Calculator extension, offering dynamic calculations and visualization of the CO2 impact of structural design choices to Tekla Structures users.
The Embodied Carbon Calculator functionality that was already introduced for Tekla Structural Designer in 2021, has now been further enhanced for viewing, reporting and sharing of carbon data. By using Tekla Structural Designer, structural engineers can in the early scheme-design phase calculate the embodied carbon of various alternative proposals, optimizing the design and materials to produce a low-carbon design. The related information is easy to communicate from within the software through reports, charts and data export.
To improve collaborative design-to-detailing workflows, the structural design software Tekla Tedds now allows for easy sharing of structural design information and documentation via the Trimble Connect collaboration platform. The latest version also includes new calculations and updates to existing calculations for faster, more reliable structural element design.
Steel fabrication management software suite Tekla PowerFab 2022 solves a common engineering problem with enhanced nesting and material management for splicing and splitting. With a streamlined system implementation, new customers can enjoy a smoother migration path from their previously used fabrication Management Information Solution (MIS) to Tekla PowerFab. This helps avoid tedious manual work and supports taking the new system into use with confidence, as the data from past projects is automatically saved, as required. The software also provides improved visibility and control with a new shipping calendar in the web-based Tekla PowerFab Go.

Structural Material Manager aids steel fabricators in managing material lists. It reduces the man-hours required to process the lists by requiring the operator to enter only the material items. The software then automatically provides weights, surface areas, paint/primer requirements, bolt counts, shipping lists, estimating reports and optimal cut-lists.

The Factory Scheduler utilizes Advanced Heuristics, Linear Programming, Optimization, and Intelligent Search Algorithms to generate a real-time optimized schedule that can be easily tuned to meet your manufacturing needs.
Dispatch rules are not sufficient to manage the WIP for a modern factory. While their execution is simple and better than purely manual decisions, they are difficult to maintain as they cannot automatically adjsut to changing factory conditions. When compared to scheduling dispatch rules have considerable drawbacks:
For small factories, a single Area Scheduler can be powerful enough to schedule all the WIP in the facility. For most high volume factories, INFICON will install a group of several Area Schedulers working together. Area Schedulers feature modular logic to accommodate the specific complexities of the area being scheduled - Lithography, Diffusion, Implant, Test, Dicing, etc. They also communicate with each other to optimize global priorities.
The Scheduler Gantt Chart shows when and where lots will run and how the decision was made. The intuitive user interface will display the reasons that led to the placement of the lot on the schedule, broken down by the importance of each priority. This enables engineers to see the imact of the current schedule on downstrean steps.
