FD GROUP Srl | Passion and High Competence for Industrial Design

Customer challenge

FD Group Srl is a leader in automotive support and industrial machine design and collaborates with the most renowned car manufacturers and companies in the engineering sector, both in Italy and abroad. The Company was created to support the innovation and competitiveness of companies in the development of products and technologies, from the creative phase to the industrialization phase. The main challenge of FD Group Srl is to provide its customers with constantly updated and prepared resources, equipped with all the tools, intellectual and practical, that allow them to guarantee a constantly top quality work. Every element of the company contributes to making this happen, through the training and use of innovative software. The ambition is to maintain a prestige that corresponds to that of the companies with which it collaborates.

Project goals

FD Group Srl is a company that is aimed in particular at sectors such as research and development within large and prestigious customers. A specific field of action is that of 3D modeling, within which software such as Autodesk Maya and Autodesk Alias, used respectively in the initial and final phase of modeling, are of great support. These software solutions allow the digital realization of elements of style. The main sector in which FD Group operates is that of the automotive sector and the use of Autodesk software allows you to model surfaces to obtain the desired results. Using Alias and Maya, FD Group aims to streamline complex work procedures and achieve a final result that meets customer expectations.

Solution

The following Autodesk solutions have been implemented: 1) Autodesk Alias Surface: mainly used for modeling surfaces of class A and B; its use is prevalent in the final stages of the project, when the design is defined and the model takes on the final form, ready for production. 2) Autodesk Maya: used early in the modeling process. It's based on polygonal modeling; this makes it easier and faster than Alias, albeit less accurate. These characteristics make it ideal for the first sketches during the design research process.

Business outcome

FD Group Srl is made up of a team of highly trained and experienced professionals able to support the major industries in the realization of their ideas, offering them not only research and technological evolution but also highly qualified knowledge and professionalism and services at a competitive price. The use of Autodesk Alias and Autodesk Maya software has brought countless advantages and qualities in the daily work of the FD Group. The precision that these software solutions bring to modeling has ensured that the company's standards and customer satisfaction are maintained.

Conclusion

The use of Autodesk software and the continuous collaboration with NTI-NKE, allow FD Group to achieve its objectives and to maintain high standards of innovation, quality and design that make FD Group a precious reference in the automotive world and of industrial design.

Von der grünen Wiese zum Industriegebiet: Geländemodellierung mit Autodesk Civil 3D

Das Architektur- und Ingenieurbüro HOFFMANN.SEIFERT.PARTNER (HSP) plant im Auftrag der Stadt Schmalkalden die Erschließung eines über 35 Hektar großen Areals, auf dem ein neues Industrie- und Gewerbegebiet entstehen soll. Eine besondere Herausforderung liegt in der anspruchsvollen Topografie, die große Erdbewegung erfordert: Die Planer rechnen mit einem Volumen von rund 350.000 m³ Auf- und Abtrag beim Anlegen der Terrassenstruktur. Da zudem eine Anbindung an das bestehende Verkehrsnetz geplant ist, entschied sich HSP mit Autodesk Civil 3D für eine Lösung, die Verkehrs- wie auch Geländemodellierung abbildet.
