Staircon Professional – Efficient processing and material optimisation

Work preparation with the push of a button

Efficient and well-coordinated work preparation for manufacturers using full-scale print-outs. In combination with the add-on module Export 2D DXF, Staircon Professional is also used by CNC manufacturers using general CAM software.

The stair details are processed into production data with material optimisation and/or printed to plotter as full size drawings. They can also be printed as scaled production drawings and/or bill of materials to be used for material preparation or as checklist on the shop floor. The plan view can be printed scale 1:1.

The staircase is designed in three views; Plan view, side view and 3D view. The visualisation in 3D gives a good understanding of what the finished staircase will look like. Surrounding walls, windows and doors can also be visualised. Different design alternatives can easily be presented for the end customer, for example material and finish. The plan view is typically used to design the shape of the stair, floor opening and walls. Dimensioning can be done automatically and/or manually. The side view is typically used to edit the side shape of strings and balustrade.

The stairs compliancy to chosen building regulations (headroom, step height etc) is easily tested. Documentation can be generated with project properties as well as scaled drawings of plan-, side and 3D view. Guides with predefined stair shapes are used to quickly draw the most common staircases. Staircon also allows for modification into any shape, giving the user a large range of design possibilities. Floor balustrade, openings and walls can also be created with flexible design. There is no limitation to the number of stairs, floors or stairwells that can be designed in one single project.
