Designing your physical workshop can be challenging, especially with limited space or budgets. However, you can design your very own car garage without leaving the comfort of your home or spending lots of money, all thanks to KROFtools’ 3D simulator.

Our 3D simulator is a revolutionary tool, helping you design your garage virtually using three-dimensional objects. In fact, with the help of modelling technologies, you can build your own garage for free.

This solution provides a range of benefits, from working out where to place equipment and workbenches inside your physical garage to simulating and testing the square footage of the space available.

• Mechanical Workshop: The impact of technology on its operation

 

Why is it important to plan out your garage?

Planning your garage space is essential to ensure:

• Efficiency: an organised repair shop reduces time spent on unnecessary tasks;
• Security: the right equipment ensures occupational safety  is guaranteed, avoiding accidents;
• Workflow: a workshop space should be designed to allow for efficient workflow, therefore improving employee productivity;
• Ergonomics: ensuring bench and table heights, chair positioning, and equipment arrangement all follow ergonomic principles to benefit employees and avoid injuries.

 

What is a 3D workshop?

A 3D workshop is a space designed using 3D printing tools and/or technologies to design and produce three-dimensional objects.

3D workshops are often used by designers, engineers, artists, students, and other professionals who want to create prototypes, custom parts, or sculptures.

Companies can also use these tools to develop new products or improve existing production processes.

Using 3D workshops, users can use computer-aided design (CAD) software to create virtual designs of the objects they want to produce.

While building a 3D workshop can be challenging, there are several steps you can take to make the process easier and more efficient.

 

 

How can you create a 3D workshop?

If you want to find out how to design a 3D workshop, consider the following points:

• Planning your space: consider the type of equipment you want to include, how many people will use the space at the same time and the kind of work to be carried out, among other factors;
• Choose the materials you want to use to build your garage;
• Tests and adjustments: Adjust as needed and ensure the space meets all the applicable safety requirements.

 

 

What is the KROFtools 3D simulator?

To help you design your 3D workshop online, KROFtools provides a 3D simulator,  allowing you to simulate your car garage.

In addition to selecting the equipment, cabinets, and other products you’ll need, you can also use your 3D workshop to design your workshop, that is, to choose the types of floors and coatings you want, among other elements.

Thanks to photorealistic 3D animation, you can see the final result of how your garage will look in real time. That way, you can keep altering until you get the desired result.

What are the advantages of designing a 3D workshop using the new KROFtools software?

There are several advantages to designing a 3D workshop, such as:

• Accelerating the design process;
• Lower costs, as it allows you to simulate and test your design before physically implementing it, thereby reducing costs relating to design errors;
• Customisation, creating personalised, unique objects adapted to the specific needs of each project;
• Improved accuracy with the creation of three-dimensional objects, allowing users to add objects with high precision and quality;
• Flexibility – being able to adapt your workspace to specific needs, adding or removing equipment according to the project;
• Innovation – opening up possibilities for new products and design solutions that were not possible previously, encouraging innovation and creativity.
