Engineering AI software for industrial equipment design. Generate 3D models from existing 2D CAD drawings, or turn a P&ID and your approved component models into a native, editable SOLIDWORKS assembly.
SEE THE ASSEMBLY TAKE SHAPE
MST assembles approved component models into a native SOLIDWORKS assembly your engineers can inspect and keep developing.
Watch the recorded assembly stage, then explore how it fits the P&ID-driven equipment-design workflow below.
Discuss a demo for your equipment
A short description of your equipment and repetitive design work is enough to start. No drawings are needed.
TWO WORKFLOWS · YOUR EXISTING ENGINEERING INPUTS
For equipment companies and design teams reusing existing 2D drawings.
Bring front, top and side views of the same equipment. MST reconstructs an editable Revit family for your engineers to check and modify.
See the drawing-to-model exampleFor semiconductor gas-equipment design teams working in SOLIDWORKS.
Bring a P&ID and the approved component models in your own PDM library for MST to import. MST connects component layout and routing with a native, editable SOLIDWORKS assembly.
See the P&ID-to-assembly exampleYour design engineers review the result. Engineering leaders can assess the workflow with CAD/PDM administrators and IT before deployment.
FOR THE PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE FOR DELIVERY
Start with the quality of the delivered design. Then compare the total cost and time to reach it. MST targets repetitive drawing reconstruction and supported equipment-assembly work; the value depends on how much accepted work your team can complete with it.
Keep approved inputs, revisions, configured checks and unresolved items visible. Agree who reviews the native result and accepts it for its intended use.
Include preparation, generation, review, corrections, software and implementation. Compare the cost of an accepted task, including work that must still be done by people.
Less repetitive CAD work can free time for other projects. Check whether it reduces a real bottleneck, overtime or outsourcing before treating that capacity as a financial return.
| Role | Decision to support | Evidence to collect |
|---|---|---|
| Owner / general manager | Can we deliver more work profitably with the team we have? | Accepted output, avoidable overtime or outsourcing, and realistic demand for released capacity. |
| Engineering manager | Does the complete task take less effort? | Preparation, execution, checking, correction and handover hours, including failed attempts. |
| Project / delivery manager | Will this help us meet the committed date? | Queue time, dependencies, approval waits and the remaining critical path. |
| Quality manager | Is the deliverable acceptable and traceable? | Agreed criteria, checked revisions, recorded exceptions and named release authority. |
| Finance / procurement | Do the benefits justify the full commitment? | One-time and recurring costs, customer effort, utilization assumptions and alternatives. |
| CAD / PDM / IT lead | Can the workflow be operated and supported? | Library readiness, authorized data flow, licenses, training and support ownership. |
Use the mechanical-design AI ROI checklist to record the assumptions. The recorded assembly demo shows execution; it does not establish your quality, cost or delivery result.
TECHNICAL DEPTH · ENGINEERING PRODUCTIVITY
For supported semiconductor equipment, MST connects the process requirements to the physical assembly:
The separate drawing-to-model workflow generates 3D geometry from existing 2D CAD views, with the source views beside the result for review.
Evaluate how much modeling and assembly work reaches an accepted result, including the preparation and engineering review it needs.
Your engineers retain design and release approval. Use the recorded demo to inspect assembly execution, then measure productivity with your own task and acceptance criteria.
NEW PRODUCT MODULE
Generate an editable Revit family from dimensioned front, top and side views. Reuse existing equipment drawings, then inspect and modify the result in Revit.
Agree the drawing preparation, Revit version and example edit for your task. Parameter-driven geometry, family types and connectors are additional requirements to confirm during evaluation.
Explore the three-view to Revit family workflow
DELIVERY TIME / ENGINEERING CAPACITY
It can help when the work it reduces is a real delivery bottleneck. Faster CAD generation alone does not prove an earlier handover: preparation, review queues, corrections and downstream dependencies still count.
Record input-ready, work-start, review-ready, accepted and handover dates. Separate active hours from time spent waiting for inputs, decisions or reviewers.
If repeated assembly work is on the critical path, reducing it may advance the handover. If an unchanged approval or procurement dependency controls the date, faster modeling may release capacity without shortening the project.
Track issues found during agreed downstream review. A quick first output followed by more corrections can erase the initial gain.
Illustrative schedule, not an MST result: reducing a two-day CAD task to one day saves one task-day. If both versions must wait for the same Friday approval, the approved handover date stays Friday.

P&ID → OPTIMIZED PHYSICAL ARRANGEMENT
Within a declared engineering boundary, two coupled solvers search for a compact, feasible physical result. A layout change reshapes the routes; an infeasible route sends the layout back for another candidate.
Optimization boundary: “Optimized” means selected against the customer-approved objectives, hard constraints, search space and stopping criteria. It is not a claim of a universal global optimum, and engineers retain release authority. Read the P&ID-to-assembly answer
MECHANICAL ASSEMBLY AI
Bring your P&ID, approved components and engineering rules. MST connects them into a physical layout and an editable SOLIDWORKS assembly.
For configured semiconductor equipment, with your approved models and rules. Your engineers approve the result for release.
01 / REUSE
Start with your approved valves, flow controllers, fittings and native models. Keep part identity and revisions tied to the design.
Models come from your authorized PDM scope or a controlled export.
Explore model reuse
02 / ARRANGE
A smaller cabinet changes more than component positions. MST plans placement and connections together, using the interfaces, keep-outs and access rules defined for the task.
Explore layout and routing
03 / KEEP DESIGNING
The output is a native, editable SOLIDWORKS assembly. Your engineers can inspect the components and continue developing the design.
This frame comes from the published assembly-execution demo.
Watch the assembly take shapeTags, symbols, linework, connections, flow direction, conditions and source evidence become typed observations.
The graph preserves direction and conditional state instead of reducing the drawing to undirected connectivity.
Authorized BOM/SAP/PDM identity, revision and lifecycle state are joined to the exact native model and its B-Rep interfaces.
Search component XYZ, orientation and interface placement together with feasible paths, fittings, layer changes and keep-outs against declared compactness and engineering objectives.
Create a versioned plan for parts, poses, mates, routing tasks, checks and evidence obligations.
Within the declared controlled scope, MST creates a native .sldasm, reopens it and reads back the checks configured for the declared acceptance scope. Unverified items remain explicit; customer engineering release is still required.
ENGINEERING REVIEW
MST reopens the assembly and reads back the checks configured for your task. See which inputs produced the result and which checks still need attention.
Unverified items remain explicit. Your engineers retain release authority.
Review the verification methodWhy PDF-to-assembly is the barrier
The difficult work is maintaining accountable meaning across document perception, directed topology, enterprise part identity, real interfaces, continuous 3D physical layout, SolidWorks execution and round-trip verification. Starting with an already-clean assembly skips most of that chain.
Unresolved identity, interface or rule evidence blocks execution or requires explicit engineering approval.
Layer changes become real blocks, bridges, elbows, tubes and BOM consequences—not a line moved on screen.
Review how P&ID requirements map to selected physical paths and the available component, mate and interface facts. A missing check is not a pass.
02 / ASSEMBLY IR
The physical solution is represented before any CAD API is called. Assembly IR v1 separates engineering meaning from vendor-specific execution while preserving deterministic instructions and evidence obligations.
03 / VERIFIED ENGINEERING INTELLIGENCE
The MST Engineering Intelligence Kernel governs task orchestration, evidence, approvals, replay and regression. Learned patterns from approved historical assemblies may rank candidates or propose rules; only deterministic, versioned and approved authority may affect production compilation.

PRODUCT QUESTIONS
For equipment assembly, prepare your existing PDM model library for MST to import. For drawing reconstruction, start with the 2D CAD drawings. Choose cloud access or private deployment; private deployment combines enterprise licensing with implementation fees.
MST AI Engineer is Engineering AI software for industrial equipment design. It brings together 2D CAD drawing-to-3D model generation and P&ID-driven equipment layout and native SOLIDWORKS assembly. The assembly workflow uses your existing approved component models and currently focuses on configured semiconductor gas equipment.
Yes. The drawing-reconstruction module generates a 3D model from 2D CAD drawings and keeps the source views available alongside the model for review. Agree the supported drawing inputs, required output and acceptance checks with MST. Engineers check dimensions, omitted details and intended use; this workflow is separate from assembly using existing PDM component models.
MST automates bounded mechanical assembly tasks with authorized inputs, supported part families, declared engineering rules and acceptance checks. It does not replace engineers or claim arbitrary whole-machine design.
Within its configured scope, MST connects P&ID equipment and connection requirements to approved models, constrained layout and routing, then directs SolidWorks to create an editable native assembly. New part families or unresolved interfaces may need onboarding or engineering review.
Yes. Prepare the existing model library in your own PDM for MST to import. The assembly workflow uses your approved component models within the agreed scope. It does not regenerate qualified parts. The public website does not access customer PDM.
Yes. MST supports cloud and private deployment. For cloud deployment, MST opens an account for your team. For the equipment-assembly workflow, prepare your existing PDM model library for import into the agreed scope, whichever deployment you choose.
Private deployment combines an enterprise license with implementation fees. The proposal defines the licensing terms, private environment and implementation deliverables for your team.
MST reopens the native assembly and reads back the checks configured for the declared acceptance scope. The review must identify which component, mate, rebuild, connection or spatial checks were performed and which remain unverified. Customer engineering approval is still required for production release.
No. Public Ask MST is a human-follow-up inquiry channel. It accepts no files, connects to no customer systems and executes no engineering tasks. The public LLM adviser is not enabled. Protected data requires a separately authorized deployment process.
START WITH A DEFINED TASK
Start with supported semiconductor gas equipment and the existing models in your own PDM library. Agree on the design constraints and acceptance checks for your environment.
New equipment categories need their own configured libraries, rules and validation.
Explore deployment04 / CURRENT CONTROLLED SCOPE
The current controlled scope is modular semiconductor process-equipment assembly under authorized libraries, approved Rulepacks and defined engineering constraints. The bounded execution contract requires no engineer operation during the run; customer engineering approval and production release remain required outside it.
ONE APPROACH · EXPANDING APPLICATIONS
The product is designed around reusable customer models, interfaces, engineering rules and governed tool execution. Process-equipment assembly is the first application, not the limit of the product vision. Each new industry needs its own configured libraries, constraints and acceptance checks.
Planned modules: engineering drawing generation and manufacturing/detail drawings. These are expansion directions, not capabilities demonstrated by the current assembly recording or a release-date commitment.
