When each iteration of design can cost of the hours engineering And to slow down there putting on THE walk of a product, Mecping wants reinvent the work of mechanical engineers. Based on independent agents, the startup is developing an intelligent assistant capable of supporting repetitive modeling, verification and estimation tasks, throughout the design cycle.
The solution is based on technology Specs-to-Cadwhich converts textual descriptions or sketches into parametric 3D files. Objective: to accelerate the transition from the idea to the prototype, by reducing friction between the formulation of the need and the generation of a ready for manufacturing file.
Among the flagship features of the platform:
-
- Tank : automatic transformation of textual descriptions into exploitable 3D models.
- Intelligent file search : Exploration of databases CAD from keywords or sketches.
- Compliance verification : automatic error detection according to industrial standards.
- Live cost estimate : dynamic calculation based on geometry, materials and processes.
- Sketch conversion into 3D models : Simplification of prototyping from hand -raising drawings.
- Compatibility with the main frame software : SolidWorks, Catia, Inventor, Fusion 360, Creo.
Designed to integrate the tools already used in design offices, the platform allows a more fluid collaboration between technical teams and trades. It is aimed in particular at industrial companies, manufacturers and hardware startups seeking to reduce their design cycles while increasing the quality of the designs delivered.
Founded by Owein Dourneau,, Alexandre Senet And Guillaume Debregeas, Mecage has just raised 2.75 million euros ($ 3 million). This funding is supported by Outlander VC, Founders, Inc., Earthling VC, Kima Ventures, irregular expressionsas well as business angels Thomas Wolf And Arnaud Kooij.
