QUEBEC, CANADA, February 5, 2004 – IRISCO, an important technology integrator working in the field of Computer-Assisted Design, announces the immediate availability of a new software application designed to extract and export design data from Autodesk Inventor. components. Dubbed Elmo 2004, this unique software has been Inventor-certified by Autodesk, ships in three languages (English, Spanish and French) directly from the IRISCO Website at http://elmo.irisco.com. Elmo 2004 not only addresses the needs of Autodesk Inventor users, but also those of all their collaborators, particularly those who work along the production process. Elmo 2004 allows extracting and exporting, in just one single operation, of the exact composition of all the Inventor assemblies, subassemblies and parts, as well as all of the properties (“iProperties”) of each part, including custom, user-defined properties. Prior creation of Inventor Parts Lists is not required to obtain the BOM (Bills Of Materials), which takes the form of a single file which can then be imported or attached in third-party applications (such as Excel, Access, etc.), or even directly brought in a commercial application MRP/ERP system. One can thus be assured of perfect synchronization between shared data such as engineering, production, costing, etc.. The IRISCO R+D team developed Elmo to make data available in a timely fashion throughout the entire Product Lifecycle.
IRISCO’s President and Science Officer, Ricardo Talbot, said about the value of Elmo: “Throughout the last 20 years, Autodesk customers have invested considerable sums in the creation and the maintenance of their digital design data, and it would be a shame that this data of priceless value to all departments of a company (production, sales, marketing, costing, service, etc.) is not made accessible to those people. Elmo represents the first of a rich collection of tools which will allow to dig for these hidden treasures.”
Founded in 1976, IRISCO is a leader in the creation, management and publishing of the numerical data of design. Dedicated on Autodesk technologies, IRISCO offers a broad range of services of consulting, planning, software, customization, training and implementation, as well as solutions in the fields of manufacturing, building and construction, and earth sciences.
