SolidWorks

“Our robots are complex systems, requiring the integration of information from sensors related to speech, facial expressions, and body movements that results in a high level of communication and coordinated actions. Our teams need access to a complete set of 3D design and engineering tools to meet our objectives.”

“As a small startup company, we have limited resources on which to draw and need to pursue the most cost-effective means for achieving our goals. The ability to use SOLIDWORKS Professional software and our 3D printer for rapid prototyping, and to drive design iterations, saved us thousands of euros in prototyping costs and was critically important to our fast development approach and business success.”

“I can solve a nonlinear simulation problem that used to take a week in a few hours. With that kind of speed, I can quickly optimize and deliver a design that will perform. Then, when we need to machine prototypes or final parts, our machinists save additional time. They can go backwards in the SolidWorks feature tree—to understand the jigs and fixtures required—without losing associativity and while maintaining revision control."
