The beginning of Paro Software
HydroMan, the software for designng hydraulic manifolds, is the reason that once upon a time the idea for Paro Software sparked. At the time, back in the 1980s, it was a couple of engineers at Paro Engineering that decided to create a tool for themselves design manifolds faster. After their customers got a whiff of this new tool, there was no stopping them from asking Paro Engineering to share it with them too, and so Paro Software as born.
Now Paro Software is a company with its own in-house development team and users all over the world. The mission is always to listen to the users and to continuously make the software more intuitive, more flexible, and easier to use.
This is also the reason the latest update and the expanded design flexibility.
A whole new dimension for hydraulic manifold design
If HydroMan was great already, it’s now gone to the next dimension. Our users can tell you that they have enjoyed the 2D view, allowing you to see all walls of the manifold at once when you design, paired with the 3D view that helps you visualize the manifold and have an overview of your work.
With this new upgrade, HydroMan allows you to work in 2D and 3D interchangeably; designing in 5D (2D + 3D) has never been so intuitive and easy! We like to think this elevates manifold design to a whole new level.
For seasoned professionals
The power of HydroMan has always been in the flexibility of being able to design simple as well as complex manifolds quickly while minimizing possibility of human error. The extensive Paro Component Library of hydraulic symbols and components adds to the speed of design by being able to click and add hydraulic parts. This is a software that supports seasoned professionals in flexing their creativity and turning their knowledge into nothing less than an art form — and yes, we did just call designing manifolds art.
For new engineers
What HydroMan’s seamless designation between designing in 2D and 3D adds is a way for new engineers to be able to start designing and learning faster and easier. Designing in this new dimension will make sparks fly for new engineers as they are given additional insights in real time as they design their manifold.
Even the sales team can now design manifolds
We like to think we’re bringing manifold design to the masses! While our seasoned pros love to use HydroMan themselves, they also love how the sales team now leaves them alone to work as they can use HydroMan for client quotations.
How do we know this? We tested this on our own sales team. Even our own CEO Marc, AKA the sales guy, can create a functioning manifold with HydroMan. The world of manifold design will never be the same.
