Manufacturing: Transfer CAD & Other Files Online

Modern manufacturing businesses cannot ignore the advent of the digital workplace. Customers are frequently demanding custom or customized products from manufacturers. The specifications that the customers require are usually stored in some kind of digital format, whether it be large CAD files or scans of hand drawings. Your company must have a way of receiving large files from your clients, and neither email or FTP is ideal, since the first option cannot handle large file transfer and the second option requires cumbersome and insecure login procedures.

Example

American Custom Moldings is a small and successful plastic prototype molding company. It works with toy designers to build safe, economically viable plastic moulds for toys. ACM traditional operations relied on hand delivery of design files on Compact Disc, but this was inconvenient for the clients and ACM wanted a better way to do things. The complex 3D CAD files were often too large for email delivery and ACM did not want to have to hire IT staff to administer an FTP server. ACM decided to use FilesDIRECT as the solution to its large file sending and receiving needs.
