Software to program the machines of the Gemini, Libra and Aries range.

Designed since the beginning under Windows environment and therefore totally PC compatible, this software stands since long time as a benchmark in the sector. The simplicity in the creation and use of its logic symbols really makes every user independent in the creation of his own knitting programs.

The program offers a very important base library that is being constantly updated and enlarged and that can be freely customized by the user. .

Moreover, the program analyses the pattern feasibility and displays a simulation of the knitting process, thus really helping the user to understand the stitch structures formation. .

To program intarsia patterns, an intarsia subroutine analyses and optimizes the simultaneous movements of the 32 available yarn-carriers and consequently generates the knitting program to be down loaded to the machine. .

With a few instructions, this Model version allows from a BMP format graphic design to automatically create the whole program while optimizing the production time.The left end side of the displayed window shows the original graphic pattern while the right one shows the automatically generated program. .

Despite the "full automatic" option, the user can always make changes at each level. For instance, he can directly select the yarn-carriers in a part or in the whole of the program. Or, he may also decide which knitting symbol will be selected or even change the sequence to let the yarn-carriers in and out of the intarsia areas. The final result will be in any case a file that can be read, changed or stored in the Model environment.

With the last version 7.22 , Model presents various news, such as a navigator, the possibility to establish for each row of knitting parameters for carriage speed, take-down speed, stitch.

Performance of the development tools
High-performance database in the GB area
Optimum interaction between the database and interface
Simple initial installation and automatic Kundenupdating
In the program development system CONZEPT 16, these four main requirements are combined on a brilliantly simple way. The Dialog Designer is defined in the RAD method, supported by drag and drop the application. Characterized by the highest performance database is already an integral part of CONZEPT 16 and provides the direct connection between application and database maximum efficiency.

For the real problems often begin after the completion of an application. With CONZEPT 16 is the first installation of the application at the customer, a process that takes only a few minutes setup-based. Using the setup routine will install the necessary files automatically CONZEPT 16 program and the application (for us all contained in the database, and application data file A) is also automatically transferred to the target system. Accordingly, all the steps necessary to operate the customer care and customer training can begin.

Another criterion is the application maintenance in connection with the updating of the customer. The more customers need to be cared for, the greater this problem Preciados is updating the customer is using 16 CONZEPT easy. Per item, the changes are gleaned from the development database and on the client side by page read back - ready. The customer can keep on rolling again. If there are specific processing operations are carried out after the update, this is by connecting directly controllable by the application procedure.

They say it is not - let them convince you directly!

Make an appointment for evaluation workshop with us.

SOFiSTiK Structural Desktop (SSD)
For general building design SOFiSTiK offers various FEA-packages mostly based on the SOFiSTiK flagship solver ASE. Any package can be upgraded for special tasks like bridge design, dynamics or tunnel engineering. The SOFiSTiK package will be controlled via the SOFiSTiK Structural Desktop (SSD). The SSD is an all new working enviroment to control the different SOFiSTiK programs without being forced to use the text-based editor. The SSD allows the user a task-oriented way of working by offering various wizards or pre-defined task from a library.
For building design SOFiSTiK offers various packages (all include the SSD):
"SlabDesigner PRO" - 2D non-linear FEA & Design
The SlabDesigner PRO is a powerful 2D FEA package handling the analysis of slabs, walls, frames or grillages. It comes with an AutoCAD-based pre-processor, CAD-based section generator, automatic superpositioning, interactive result viewers and automatic report generation. For those engineers not having AutoCAD, this package comes based on an optional AutoCAD 2006 OEM engine. This means: Full AutoCAD-technology and compatibility for a very competitive price.
SlabDesigner PRO comes with many advanced features like non-linear cracking analysis for slabs and beams, non-linear bedding and supports, integrated t-beam design and theory 2nd order and many international codes like BS, EC, DIN, SIA, ÖNORM, ACI, BBK/BRO (Sweden), SNIP (Russia).
The SlabDesigner PT Pro package offers additionally the option of analysing and designing Pre- and Post-tensioned slab with SOFiPLUS and SSD data input. For more information please check the Post-tensioned Slab Example on our WebSite.
"Basic 3D FEA & Design"
Like the SlabDesigner PRO this package is AutoCAD-based and is an economic start into the 3D FE-analysis using SOFiSTiK. The package come with an interactive pre- and postprocessor and an automatic mesh-generator. The user can perform linear static analysis for any 3D structure, from simple slabs to freeform surfaces including RC-design for plate, beam and truss elements. Implemented codes are identical to the SlabPRO-packages.
"BASIC 3D Frame and Girder Systems"
Based on the program STAR 3 the user has a powerful solution for analysis and design of general frame and girder systems according to 1st/2nd order theory at his fingertips. The input can confortably be done using SOFiPLUS.
"SOFiSTiK Premium" - Advanced 3D FEA & Design
The Premium-package is an ideal upgrade from BASIC 3D FEA. Additional features are:
Volume elements
Pile elements
Non-linear springs
Theory 2nd order
Cracked-section analysis (beams)
Elastic-plastic, plastic-plastic
Torsional buckling checks (EC)
Staged construction
Non-linear bedding
User defined cross-sections incl. design
3D integration of structure's stresses to forces on equivalent cross-sections
Full steel and concrete section design
Thin- and thick-walled section types
...and a lot of more
The SOFiSTiK Premium Package is available in two configurations, the first one as SOFiSTiK Premium Concrete (including the design of shells) and the second one as SOFiSTiK Premium Steel (including theory 3rd order and membrane elements).
The Premium package can easily be upgraded to post-tensioning structures, seismic analysis, bridge and tunnel design.


Column - Column analysis according to 2nd Order Theory
With COLUMN the engineer has a program interface of the new generation at hand. Based on the modules STAR3 and STUE the program offers column analysis and design according to the buckling column model procedure (DIN 1045-1) or 2nd Order Theory including non-linear material behaviour and creepage/shrinkage. Further more COLUMN offers an option for automatically drawing reinforcement plans for SOFiCAD.
