Jacoby-Tarbox is a world-leading manufacturer of sight flow indicators and sight window products. These products incorporate glass to allow customers to safely observe processes and flow in piping, vessels, and reactors. JT sight flow indicators are designed for versatile installation, whether engineers require a flanged, welded, or threaded connection.

When an engineer is in the design phase, they can now go to The Jacoby-Tarbox website and use the new model builder to configure the exact sight flow indicator needed for their project. "There is a real engineering time savings here,” says Dave Purcel, Jacoby-Tarbox Product Manager. “In the past, engineers would request a 3D model or drawing and one of our engineers would design it to their exact specifications. Depending on the complexity of the request, it could take a week before we delivered the CAD model to the engineer,” Purcel adds, “With the new model builder, any customer is now able to configure a product to their exact specifications and instantly download in the CAD format they prefer. This takes a process which took days to deliver and becomes a transaction which takes minutes instead.”

The online CAD models include detailed product information for design and purchasing decisions. The model builder generates the part number for each configuration and builds the data directly into the CAD model that can include a complete data sheet and drawing, providing a seamless handoff between engineering and procurement.
