Accepted Answer

Custom CAD Tools are software tools we develop to automate and streamline daily tasks specifically within your CAD environment. They help improve efficiency, reduce repetitive work, and enhance productivity for your design team.

Question 4

What makes GSIK’s Custom CAD Tools unique?

Accepted Answer

Our team has experience with multiple proprietary programming languages used in various CAD platforms. This allows us to create advanced functionality that isn’t normally available, enabling bespoke features, automation, and integrations tailored to your company’s workflows.

Question 5

What is a PLC system?

Accepted Answer

A PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is a specialised computer used to control machinery and industrial processes. It receives input from sensors, executes programmed logic, and sends output commands to equipment like motors, valves, and pumps.

Question 6

What is a SCADA system?

Accepted Answer

SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) is a system used to monitor, control, and automate industrial processes. It collects real-time data from sensors and equipment, providing dashboards, reports, and insights to operators for informed decision-making via a visual user interface (UI).

Question 7

Can GSIK implement and integrate PLC and SCADA systems?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can implement both PLCs and SCADA software, integrating them with your existing hardware, sensors, and software systems. This provides a fully unified monitoring and control environment, where PLCs manage real-time process control and SCADA supervises, visualises, and stores operational data for analysis and reporting.

Question 8

Can PLC and SCADA systems be customised for my business?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We can develop custom PLC programs, SCADA interfaces, dashboards, and automated reporting tools tailored to your equipment and workflows. This ensures your systems provide actionable insights, simplified control, and optimised operational performance.

Question 9

Why do PLC and SCADA systems matter for my company?

Accepted Answer

PLCs capture live data from sensors and equipment and execute automated control based on inputs and outputs, while SCADA collects and stores this data in databases for monitoring, analysis, reporting and allows operators to make changes to the process via a visual interface.

Question 10

Can GSIK create custom software for my business?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We produce custom B2B management software, including automated reporting tools, built on our internal template and tailored to your workflows.

Question 11

What are software templates?

Accepted Answer

Software templates are pre-built frameworks or starting points we develop in-house to accelerate the creation of custom software solutions. They include core functionality, structures, tools, and interfaces that can be tailored to each client’s specific workflows. Templates reduce development time, ensure reliability, and provide a proven foundation for your bespoke software.

Question 12

What is GSIK’s custom project management software?

Accepted Answer

GSIK’s custom project management software is a tailored B2B solution designed to manage your projects, workflows, and reporting. It can be built on our internal template, it is fully customised for each client’s environment and integrates with your existing systems. This is not an off-the-shelf product, each implementation is tailored specifically for your business, processes, and operational requirements.

Question 13

What software does GSIK use for engineering?

Accepted Answer

By default:
Inventor Nastran -> Mechanical FEA
Inventor Frame Analysis -> Mechanical FEA
Solid Works Simulation -> Mechanical FEA
SpaceGass -> Structural FEA
Engineering Toolbox -> Civil/Structural Calculations

Other software is an option if required.

Question 14

What software does GSIK typically use by default for drafting and mechanical design?

Accepted Answer

SolidWorks -> mechanical design, drafting, structural detail drawings
Inventor -> mechanical design, drafting, structural detail drawings
AutoCAD -> P&ID and electrical drawings
