From design
to manufacturing.
Compass Software GmbH develops the CAD/CAM solution. TEDICAD is a regional contact for questions about selection, use and services.
Modules to match your requirements
The functions described belong to different base modules and options. Availability depends on the specific software configuration and machine integration.

Develop staircases digitally
Compass supports the design of different stair types, including stringer, cut-string, spiral, folded-plate and bolted stairs. Depending on the configuration, railings, component details and spatial constraints can be included. Presets support recurring designs.
Manufacturer's design information Discuss your configuration
Show the design in space
3D visualisation shows a design from different viewpoints. Views, materials and spatial relationships support discussion before manufacturing. Compass provides presentation features and further options for this purpose.
Manufacturer's 3D presentation information Discuss your configuration
Reuse the design data
The design can produce parts lists and, with the appropriate configuration, full-size templates for manual processing. Suitable machine interfaces and postprocessors are used for CNC manufacturing. The actual machine and desired workflow must be taken into account.
