Many AutoCAD users are using AutoCAD 'out of the box', not realising it's full potential. One of the most powerful features of AutoCAD is it's capacity to be customised to increase drawing productivity. More dramatic productivity gains can be achieved with bespoke programming - imagine your own 'intelligent' commands that 'know' what you're about to do! Reduce mouse clicks to the minimum and maximise your AutoCAD investment.

K4 CAD Solutions is a software development business focusing on programming and customisation services for AutoCAD users. Additionally, Windows ® programs can be written to run independently of, or inside AutoCAD, enabling elegant solutions to complex CAD requirements. A manufacturer's Product Selector, for example, may consist of AutoCAD and Windows programs to view and insert products into drawings and further Windows programs to process purchase order data. K4 CAD Solutions can make your 'wish-list' dreams come true!

Parametric Commands - produce complex designs (2D/3D) simply by specifying dimensions of various features within the design, enabling families of parts to be produced with minimum effort. Options to save/load parameter sets.

CNC Code Generators - commands to draw machined parts and generate CNC code to your specifications (feed rates, spindle speed, cut, etc). G-CODE turning and milling projects undertaken, other CNC operations considered.

Data Input via Dialogue Boxes - a well designed dialogue box enables a user to interactively input/select parameters quickly and easily (using edit boxes, list boxes, radio buttons, etc).

Bespoke Windows Programming - from Database programs (which can run independently of, or within AutoCAD) to Scientific Utilities for Engineering, Job Costing and Order Processing systems and more.

Data Import Commands - commands to import text-based design data and so greatly reduce AutoCAD drawing time by allowing the preparation of drawings outside AutoCAD.

Manufacturers' Databases - suites of commands that interactively insert manufactured objects into drawings - for use in-house or for distribution to specifiers and architects. High quality graphics and automatic generation of purchase orders via CD ROM Catalogues.

K4 CAD Solutions develops custom commands to meet very specific user requirements ranging from simple utilities to complex 'knowledge driven' applications. Applications can be designed to integrate with other systems and data, to provide total solutions to your CAD and IT needs.

Additionally, K4 CAD Solutions offers Optimisation Contracts, covering utility programming and customisation. Utilities, programmed to automate repetitive tasks can dramatically reduce drawing time. Customisation (linetypes, hatch patterns, menus, scripts, etc) will make your day to day use of AutoCAD more productive and help implement and maintain drawing standards.
