"The students took to SOLIDWORKS right away they soak it up like a sponge and immediately began creating complex designs using 3D parametric modeling. We’ve always had strong placement numbers because manufacturers have experience with the quality of our graduates. Even though many companies are willing to invest in training …

“Having all of the models correctly set up in SOLIDWORKS enables us to develop designs more quickly and easily, cutting design time from a couple of weeks to a couple of days.”

"Because SOLIDWORKS mechanical, electrical, and electronic design tools are integrated, we completed the design without having to make a prototype and with just a single revision."

“We have several cylinders that exert up to 1.5 tons in the center or at the end of the [weightlifting] bars.”

"We can do these expensive and complex drop tests directly in [3DEXPERIENCE Works Simulation], which is a big time-saver. The opportunity we have with the 3DEXPERIENCE Works Simulation is that we can reject early [design] ideas digitally, saving a lot of money and time [on the back end]."

“SOLIDWORKS helps us improve design manufacturability, such as making sure the model has sufficient draft, and reduce iterations with our moldmaker.”

“Now we are able to apply new ideas to designing a completely efficient compact feed mill without all the trial and error of making prototypes.”

“The corner treatment of weldments is truly awesome, because it gives us a clear idea of the joints.”

“SOLIDWORKS allowed our team to create the aqua-walker in 3D without the need for physical prototypes. By refining and completing our design in the software, we saved a significant amount of money on materials and created a product to our exact specifications. The sugar on top: no alterations were needed …

"SOLIDWORKS Plastics Premium software provides the advanced capabilities such as post-filling, cycle optimization, cooling analysis, and warp prediction that allow us to simulate complex mold scenarios, accelerate customer time-to-market, and reduce internal launch costs."

“We used capabilities of SolidWorks software to help highlight design challenges in a fiberglass architectural ceiling system at The Plaza Theater in El Paso, Texas. We were able to quickly demonstrate what the adjustable acoustic ceiling system would look like from several vantage points within the theater, allowing for a …

“With SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D, we are better positioned to develop our next generation of optimized systems. It’s helping us improve margins and reduce customer costs, which allows us to maintain and manage our dramatic business growth.”

“For example, locating solid-state electrical devices in a confined space generates heat. By having all design domains on one platform, we can simulate heat flow inside the cabinet by bringing in the thermal effects of electronic components and satisfy demands for miniaturization while maintaining the high levels of quality for …

“We are also using SolidWorks Composer to create animations of new designs for consulting physicians to show how the product will inject, travel, and work.”

“Thanks to SOLIDWORKS, we were able to reduce the design time of a machine from 10 to six months. Now, the quality of our 3D designs, manufacturing drawings, technical documentation and marketing content is much more valued by our customers.”
