Fully automated manifold design

No more design backlogs

QuickManifolds® is a fully automated manifold design platform, powered by VEST patented AutoRoutertechnology*.

 

The cloud-based platform enables progressive organizations
to deliver manifold designs at a cost that is significantly
lower than standard design processes.

* US Patent No 7558713

A customized web interface
branded to your organization standards,
allows your distributors and customers to help themselves to manifolds designs, 3D models, and manufacturing drawings
within minutes, before placing an order.

 

Setup

Your Company Standards

QuickManifolds has a library of standard material,
tooling, and cavity data, which is used by the
AutoRouter engine to design manifolds

 

The library is configurable to your company standards

 

QuickManifolds handles both metric and imperial data
and has multi-standard support for global organizations

Design Defaults: Units, minimum wall thickness, maximum slenderness ratio, minimum clearance between components,

cross drill port standards

 

Standard Ports and Valve Patterns

 

Manufacturing Defaults: Drill sizes, material cross sections, manufacturing constraints

Output

...in minutes not days

 

Interrogate and analyse outputs using VEST 3D Manifold Manager and Assembly Manager

 

3D manifold design ( .ipt format)
Can be opened and viewed in Autodesk® Inventor®

 

 

3D STEP solid model of the manifold ( .stp format)
Can be imported into most CAD platforms

 

3D manifold design ( .mbxml format)
Can be opened and viewed by VEST Manifold Manager and
also with MDTools® Inventor® / SolidWorks®

 

2D manufacturing drawings, including bore chart
(AutoCAD .dwg format and Adobe Acrobat .pdf format)

 

Design Report (Adobe Acrobat .pdf format)
Documents the input constraints and design check report

Note:

- The 3D manifold design can be edited/refined using VEST MDTools manifold design software

- QuickManifolds designs in both Metric and Imperial units

WebCAD®

MDTools®

Submit your circuit to QuickManifolds
directly from WebCAD

QuickManifolds used for small-run mobile manifolds to quickly produce a workable design configuration which can be further refined using MDTools®


MDTools used in a manual semi-automated process for
industrial manifolds and large-run production manifolds

Limitations

QuickManifolds is capable of designing manifolds
with screw-in cartridges and surface mounted valves
Other valve types are presently not covered


For large circuits, consider using
VEST MDTools manifold design software

Circuits with up to 12 cartridges

Circuits with 1 surface mounted valve
and up to 8 screw-in cartridges

Circuits with 2 surface mounted valves
and up to 5 screw-in cartridges
