Structural Steel Fabrication

Are you using platforms such as Inventor®, AutoCAD®, Solidworks® or MBS® to fabricate structural steel components? With each software outputting its own file format, interoperability becomes impossible and the manufacturing process becomes time consuming without the right tools to feed data into your machinery.

Convert files from Inventor®, AutoCAD®, Solidworks® or MBS® into DSTV NC1.

Unify all parts files into the standardized DSTV (*.nc1) extension with our CMS solutions

We offer a one-stop-shop to quickly convert, modify and fabricate structural steel components. 

Conversion

Speedily convert structural steel parts files and 2D drawings, from components into the NC1 format or create your own files from scratch.

Modification

Make modifications to your NC1 files exported from 3rd party platforms like Tekla® SDS2 or post-process your own converted NC1 files in CMS.

Easy Interface

Our solutions have easy to use interfaces, designed for beginners and experts alike.

Improved Efficiency

Reduce the time it takes to manufacture your single body parts and assemblies.

Easy Implementation

A lean platform that requires little set up time and smoothly integrates into current workflows.

Support Team

We provide constant support every step along the way to help facilitate productivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

DSTV NC1 is a universal format that structural steel CNC machines understand. When every parts file arriving in your shop is converted to a consistent, machine-readable NC1 format, your operators spend less time troubleshooting file compatibility issues, streamlining the process so you can start fabricating faster.

Yes. CMS is designed for single-body parts and assemblies across both standard and non-standard sections. Whether you’re producing beams, columns, and connections from typical structural profiles or fabricating custom components with complex cut operations, the tool works across a wide range of what a structural steel shop typically produces.

No. CMS outputs standardised DSTV NC1 files, which is the format supported across the broad majority of structural steel CNC machinery regardless of manufacturer

Minimal. CMS is designed as a lean plugin that sits within the design tools your team already uses such as Inventor, AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or MBS.
