- Standard drives are acceptable, but SSD’s truly make a difference in response times.

Fast Setup Time
FabSuite comes with most of the basic information already in it. However, like any program you would have to enter the information particular to your company. You can also change the basic information already in the system to match how your company does business, with few exceptions.
Our Model Exchange tool gives you the ability to seamlessly round-trip information back and forth between FabSuite and TEKLA Structures or SDS/2 3D models. By importing a compressed XML file into FabSuite you will have access to drawing files, revisions, bill of materials, user-defined attributes, CNC data and more. You can use and update that data through the various modules in FabSuite like Combining, Inventory Control, Purchasing, Production Control, etc. After you have manipulated the data in FabSuite you can round-trip that data back into your 3D model with current status information and colorize the model base on those statuses.
