Your time is valuable! To save you time, Kato’s Online CAD Configurator allows you to quickly design 3D CAD models of Kato products in a variety of CAD formats and the flexibility to manipulate the geometry to show different positions in your design.

* Select from a large variety of Native and Neutral CAD and other formats, including AutoCAD®, Unigraphics®, Solidworks®,
   Solidedge®, Catia®, Pro-E®, IDEAS®, PDF, etc.
* Native CAD formats are drawn as assemblies to allow you to use features from your CAD system to easily manipulate the
   geometry.
* Request CAD models in Open/Extend or Closed/Retract positions.
* Configurator ensures that the proper Kato ordering data is generated and handles compatibility in real-time.
* CAD models usually generated in less than five minutes.
* Download CAD models directly from your browser or have them emailed.
* Graphical configurator selection allows you to select options by graphic to generate valid ordering data.
* Using our CAD configurator simplifies and streamlines the design process allowing the design engineer time to focus on the
  more complex details of the assembly.
* When you are satisfied with your design, contact Kato for verification that your desired spring is possible to produce.  We           will also give you a tender of price and lead time. You can always ask us for guidance at any time.
* Contact us for help with optimizing your spring.

CAD Configurator is tool used by design engineers to shape custom spring components typically used in the design of a custom machines and automated devices used in various manufacturing processes. Using CAD configurator simplifies and streamlines the design process allowing the design engineer time to focus on the more complex details of the assembly. Kato CAD Configurator is making the design engineer even more productive.
Handling of number of the technical specifications, rules, and constraints, often require the skills of a seasoned engineer to configure a valid product that meets the required specification.

Today, the design engineer can navigate our website; design a component without worrying about the technical specifications, rules, and constraints. The part configurator will not allow out of range or incompatible specification to be considered. This removes hours of research typically provided by the design engineer to check the compatibility of components within the specification of the part.

The next generation of our CAD configurator will provide instantaneous price and shipping information freeing up more time for the design engineer. The design engineer will be able to cost out assemblies without providing drawings and waiting for the local spring shop to quote to the specifications presented in the drawings.
