• Easy to customize
• Strength integration with IronCAD
• The difference
• Dialogs are not modal

• User can get on the fly BOM of the entire scene
  or the selected assembly. These BOM can be
  exported to MSExcel

PROParameter Table

• This tool helps user in creation and management
  of parametrical parts.
• The difference
• User can define esxpression using VisualBasic
  statement.
• User interface is very friendly and powerfull
• Its possible to define parametrical position of
  parts and assemblies

PRODrill

• PRODrill is a technology inside IronPRO that

• Set kernel type for one/more/all parts
• Manage External Links
• Allow user to create parts with automatical set
  of PartNumber, Description and CustomData

12
JTAttach

• JTAttach are used in order to speed up operations
  related to placement and attachement of parts
