Can CAD Data Be Processed Automatically?
Visoric offers a perfect combination of modern AI-driven processing of CAD data and fine-tuning by experts.
With the help of Artificial Intelligence, it is possible to automate many tasks in data processing, as long as the data are prepared accordingly. This includes having an appropriate structure and properly named materials and material libraries.
However, AI cannot replace human experts as it is not capable of fully understanding the requirements and use cases of the end user. Therefore, it is crucial to combine AI and human expert knowledge to achieve the best possible result. Visoric offers exactly this combination by utilizing the benefits of AI and expert knowledge to optimize the processing of CAD data.
