Mundus to Use Inventor for VTOL/Flying Car Project
LOS ANGELES (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) January 15, 2008 --
Mundus Group Inc.
(Pink Sheets:MNDS) announces that Roadable Aircraft's VTOL/Flying
Car technology and newly-patented designs for an experimental
aircraft are being designed and tested using Autodesk
Inventor. The engineering firm's decision to upgrade came from chief
design engineer, Michael
Boehm, “From Boeing C-17s to Hummers and
Toyotas, Autodesk Inventor is helping manufacturers design and build
vehicles and experimental aircrafts by giving them a true digital
prototype work directly with the Inventor 3D model.”
Digital Prototyping gives manufacturers the ability to virtually explore
a product that is completed before it is built. This allows them to
create, validate, optimize, and manage designs from the conceptual
design phase through the manufacturing process. By using a digital
prototype, Roadable
Aircraft can visualize and simulate real-world performance of the
design with less reliance on costly physical prototypes.
The Autodesk Digital Prototyping Solution enables manufacturing
workgroups to create a single digital model that can be used in every
stage of production, bridging the gaps that usually exist between
conceptual design, engineering, and manufacturing teams. Inventor has
decreased design time on rework or work-in-progress for crucial
projects, reduced errors by 50 percent on initial designs through better
visualization and achieved “first-time-right”
design during tight lead times.
“It provides the technology to help us build
fewer physical prototypes, reducing design and production costs. We will
limit errors and product design changes that may need to be done down
the road. We will continue to invest in the right tools for the job,”
said Boehm.
About the Company
RAI plans to revolutionize VTOL /Flying Car “inner
space” travel with its patented configuration
for an experimental aircraft utilizing counter
rotating propellers within a ducted
fan that are unexposed and thereby allowing take offs and landings
without the inherent danger found in the typical helicopter propellers
of the current technology.
