“Using SolidWorks software, we can create a mold in three weeks, and go from a napkin drawing to a CNC-machined pattern in a week.”

“It also provided the integrated structural simulation tools that we needed to validate our products and ensure that manufacturing would go smoothly.”

"With DraftSight, we can manipulate past projects and our design library of P&ID symbols to save time and effort. In short, DraftSight gives us greater flexibility to work with 2D file formats and design entities more quickly and easily."

“The biggest benefit of the SOLIDWORKS PDM implementation is that we now have one version of the truth. SOLIDWORKS PDM allows us to automatically replicate our vault to other design offices and manufacturing facilities around the world, which ensures that we are using the same data, rules, and workflows across …

"SOLIDWORKS saves us time and money because we can iterate quickly on a design, helping us to shorten time-to-market, meet firm deadlines, and ensure product durability and performance."

“We are committed to offering a durable product that you can take out in the field and drop numerous times—or bang around your car—and it will still function properly,”

“The more testing we can do with real people to obtain feedback from actual users, the better.”

"By installing SolidWorks Enterprise PDM, we keep the work flowing, which is how we make money."

“Weight is a major concern in all drone development. Even a reduction of 100 to 200 grams is a big deal, and a reduction of the magnitude of 10 pounds simply by using a lighter but just as strong material can lead to improved performance, such as doubling the flight …

“SOLIDWORKS has been critical in all of our product development, and it’s at the core of our mechanical engineering work.”

“SOLIDWORKS has helped us improve large assembly design, resulting in time savings, cost reductions, and quality improvements.”

"What really sold me on SOLIDWORKS Visualize software was the ‘glass’ quality—how real it makes glass bottles look. We do a lot with glass and plastics, and we need a tool that provides the most photorealistic images possible. With the other packages, the glass quality was really not there, so …

“There are so many tools inside SOLIDWORKS. Once people start working with SOLIDWORKS and discover the available tools and how easy it is to use them, our number of users just continues to grow.”

“We started using SolidWorks software when we won a job that required SolidWorks software data as the delivered CAD format. Our headquarters in Nashville, Tennessee, was already implementing the software, so we made the decision to transition to 100 percent SolidWorks 3D CAD software at our Phoenix facility.”

“The system had to be designed to operate with different feeders, conveyors, and manual assembly systems. The project also involved creating an assembly of approximately 600 components in a relatively small space, We envisioned the Viper as a robotic cell on an assembly line or as a standalone assembly station. …
