Design
CAD intent, customer requirements, part review, and early tooling decisions.
The Digital Toolroom
Software, engineered like tooling.
Every product here was born from a problem on Saptasati’s own shop floor — then specified, built, validated, and released with evidence, the same way a die leaves the toolroom. This is the stack we run daily, and the stack we are bringing to the industry.

01 — The Route
The software follows the same route as the factory.
Design, CAM, machining, finishing, tryout, inspection, review — each stage produces data the next stage needs. The stack keeps that record moving with the job.
Digital toolroom workflow steps
CAM
Manufacturing preparation and setup choices before cutting begins.
Machining
Machine queues, VMC work, and shop-floor progress need reliable status.
Finishing
Lapping, EDM, grinding, corrections, and hand finishing carry details that must not be lost.
Tryout
Development presses, validation, correction feedback, and quality loops prove the work.
Review
Project records and CAD files travel with the job — to the desk, the floor, and the phone.
02 — The Build Series
Four products. One connected record.

S1 — Operations
Stratos
The operating system for the toolroom: RFQs, project planning, VMC and machining queues, stores, inventory, quality reports, HRMS, finance sync, and dashboards — one place for status, ownership, and delivery control. It runs Saptasati’s own shop every day.

S2 — Engineering
CADMation NXT
A native Windows engineering workstation for CAD-driven tooling: CATIA-connected BOM extraction, rough-stock measurement, Smart Setup decisions, drafting automation, DXF/PDF/Excel exports — and durable .cadm project packages that carry identity, decisions, and drawings from engineering to production.

S3 — Field Review
CADMation Mobile
Engineering details beyond the workstation: Android job packets with session details, 3D and 2D viewing, BOM data, hole tables, measurement history, and field-friendly CAD inspection controls — beside the machine, at the vendor, in the review meeting.

S4 — Everyone Else
PartLens
A free, offline Android STEP/STP viewer with honest measurement — no upload, no login, no ads, no CAD seat. Built for operators, fitters, inspectors, and suppliers: the people who need to open a part file beside the machine and keep the discussion moving.

03 — In The Lab
What’s coming next.
The work in progress that has us excited — engineered, like everything else here, against real shop-floor problems.
Exact CAD answers on a phone
PartLens now carries a full exact-geometry kernel on the device. The goal: tap anything, get the true dimension — with honest exact-vs-approximate tagging on every measurement.
2D drawings from any STEP
Front, top, side and iso views with true hidden lines, exported to DXF or PDF — generated from the model in your pocket, headed for PartLens.
Weight & press tonnage
Material weight and stamping-tonnage estimates straight from part geometry — the quoting language of the die business, computed where the conversation happens.
The connected job record
CADMation NXT’s .cadm packages, Stratos status, and mobile review converging on one goal: records, CAD, and inspection notes that travel with the job — the foundation for practical AI assistance in manufacturing.
