Simplicity and accessibility is an important part of Cibes Lift´s vision, just as innovation. From today on the company launch their platform lift products as BIM objects, to both save time and simplify the design process of lift solutions in construction projects. BIM, Building Information Model, can be described as further developed CAD drawings into intelligent 3D objects with the ability to be visualized.
Cibes Lifts product models are available from today on as BIM objects, in various configurations and sizes for a wide range of applications. They can easily be imported and used as models. The items are free and available to download from the BIMobject® Portal and from Cibes Lifts own architect site. The BIM objects contain size options, color choices, lift shafts and door types.
”We want to make our lifts available in the arena where architects and builders meet in their daily work. We believe that BIM will become increasingly important in this respect, both regarding life cycle aspects in construction projects as for the ease of handling drawings that appears”, says Börje Fransson, Head of Sales Cibes Lift Group.
