Trimble now has an application for
iPad-toting sheet metal contractors.
The Trimble Field Fitting Input App
allows contractors to quickly get information on sheet metal project dimensions
and send it to the fabrication shop.
Using the app reduces errors and
saves time, company officials said. It uses standard fittings from Vulcan CAM
software.
"Leveraging technology such as Apple's iPad platform as a means of
delivering new levels of speed and accuracy to the process of drawing sheet
metal fittings in the field is what Trimble's BIM to Field vision is all
about," said Pat Bohle, general manager of Trimble's building construction
division. "With Trimble Field Fitting Input, we have removed the manual
process of measuring, documenting, and then transporting sheet metal fitting
information back to the shop and replaced it with an intuitive digital work-flow
app for the iPad."
The new app, which debuted Monday, is available in Apple’siTunes Store .
