"Using Solid Edge makes it pretty easy to modify imported data files from competing CAD systems, whether they’re straightforward or involve a lot of complexity, such as curve modeling."
“The project’s basic goals were to establish a single design approach across the entire company, to transition to a single data format and to improve the quality of design documentation, We decided to start by choosing a CAD system.”
“We have one truth in all the company, and all the departments, they use the same information, so there is much less chance that we make mistakes.”
"In many cases, they are simply budgetary estimates, but with early simulation our confidence in these estimates is greatly improved. Early use of FEA speeds the process. Hand calculations for loadings on key structural members that could take hours in the past can be done in 20 to 30 minutes now."
“Design tasks that took six hours on a drawing board dropped to about four hours using 2D computer-aided design (CAD), and then to 15 minutes with 3D Solid Edge."
"We’ve found that using Solid Edge with synchronous technology enables us to dramatically accelerate our entire product development operation compared to the CAD software we were using. Using synchronous technology is not only better and faster for editing a design, but also for new product development as well."
"By combining the features of timepieces with our own R&D requirements, and after an evaluation by our senior leaders, we chose a flexible and easy-to-use software solution that addresses all aspects of the product development process. We chose Solid Edge from Siemens Digital Industries Software."
“The speeds are getting faster, and the margin between winners is getting smaller. Being able to use digital processes – like stress analysis – I think it’s the future. The trucks are going to get faster, lighter and more reliable, the cost is going to go down and the speed is going to go up.”
"The versatility we have with these software systems for parts modeling and the ability to visualize a new design in a very practical manner and with great precision has benefited us greatly, especially with regards to validation time and material savings."
"Using Solid Edge with synchronous technology, our design changes are made 10 times faster and customers are extremely impressed with the speed in which Trlby can turn around major engineering change orders."
"Valves for pipelines are characterized by non-standard geometric shapes, complex profiles and a large number of junctions. Solid Edge with synchronous technology helps accelerate our design process. Using Solid Edge, we soon realized just how quickly and effectively we could design valve parts from scratch, such as valve covers, which have highly complex surfaces."
"Solid Edge undoubtedly has a lot of advantages: easy-to-use interface, speed, and the ability to build assemblies with unlimited nesting. Moreover, there are several unique features that favorably distinguish Solid Edge from other systems in its class."
"The software we used before only worked with two dimensions, so when we would go to the plant to set up the assembly processes, things would not always fit."
“Bikes should move forward, progress and get better, just as the rider does.”
"Redrawing entire CAD models is no longer necessary. This feature of Solid Edge alone has saved us hours of re-work, making our processes more streamlined and productive."
