Ultra Librarian On-line is an online service for the cost-reduction of CAD/CAE library creation and maintenance activities.

Ultra Librarian On-line is an online service for the cost-reduction of CAD/CAE library creation and maintenance activities.

Ultra Librarian automates the creation of library components for single or multiple CAD/CAE environments and also translates libraries from one CAD or CAE tool to another.

Ultra Librarian is already in use at a number of the world's leading electronic systems manufacturers.

Frank Frank, President of Accelerated Designs stated: "The Ultra Librarian On-line is a vendor neutral tool that will allow complex footprints to be built by even novice designers".

"It has been inspired as a way to help users benefit from parametric construction of libraries".

"These benefits include cost effective creation of custom components, verification of proper part creation, creation of libraries to both industry and company standards and re-usability across multiple CAD tool platforms".

The Ultra Librarian Engine can be used to create footprints online.

Users simply select the style part to build, enter the size and parameters of the part from a spec sheet, select the CAD tool or tools to which to export, and receive their parts.

The On-Line Footprint Builder is a unique software solution that automates the process of footprint and symbol generation, making it easy to generate the part with better quality and faster speed.

Using the Ultra Librarian technology quality footprints and symbols can be built to users' specifications.

Users simply upload their data to Accelerated Designs, specify the tool in which to build the parts, give details of any parameters that need to be met, and Accelerated Designs will normally return completed components within 48 hours.

The user can now make a part one time and use it in almost any CAD system.

CAD CAE libraries can be translated both symbol and footprint from one CAD tool to another for a set fee, or a per component fee.

Users simply select the host and target formats, upload their libraries or provide Accelerated Designs with details and samples of their libraries, and the company will provide a detailed quote.
