645 SolidWorks Testimonials

"By acquiring SOLIDWORKS design, simulation, documentation, and sustainability solutions, CATAS has added a range of cutting-edge services to meet our clients’ future challenges. At CATAS, we are preparing for tomorrow, and SOLIDWORKS solutions are helping us be ready."

“Human error contributes to our inspection challenges, so we needed a system to help us eliminate it.”

“In this tight market, there’s no room for error, and we can’t afford to lose, either. With the information and automation provided by DELMIAWORKS, both our pricing and position are more competitive. In short, DELMIAWORKS gives us a competitive edge.”

“Advantage for [ECCO] in implementing SolidWorks Plastics is the ability to understand how a part is going to behave in tooling.”

“The light bar base was the largest injected-plastic part that we have made. With SOLIDWORKS Plastics, I was able to modify the design to improve the flow of plastic in the mold. I added a large post for the injection sprue and ribs heading out from the post to serve as runners to improve flow. Instead of having to go back and add runners, which would have resulted in a delay, I had already done it. All the moldmaker had to do was change a gate dimension.”

“To support the increased activity, we needed a 3D development platform that would enable us to tighten up development and manufacturing. By doing so, we could shorten delivery leadtimes and free up resources to go after new opportunities.”

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

“I knew that SolidWorks was a better system for working with engineering students because of the short learning curve. We have now standardized on SolidWorks for all of our engineering courses and research at Dartmouth.”

“The transition to 3D design and iMachining via the integrated SOLIDWORKS/ SolidCAM CAD/CAM solution has enabled us to increase throughput, improve our bottom line, and grow revenue.”

“Because of the benefits SOLIDWORKS provides in terms of design speed, we are more competitive.”

"SOLIDWORKS provides an intuitive graphical user interface that allows us to design, check, and verify a design within a few hours. That’s why we use SOLIDWORKS: It allows us to design everything very quickly."

“SOLIDWORKS Simulation helped us minimize trial and error in testing the safety of our robots through finite element analysis. Making physical mock-ups is very time-consuming. Therefore, we use SOLIDWORKS to visually prototype parts before we physically assemble them.”

“SolidWorks Workgroup PDM helps us to efficiently manage the many projects we have. We have since upgraded to the SolidWorks Web Server, so we can manage vendor access to product design data. We have so many projects going at any one time that we often need design help and offload work to outside contractors. With the SolidWorks Web Server, we can provide vendors with access to our Vault, so they can place and pull product design data in and from the Vault in a secure, controlled fashion. This capability not only eliminates the need to manage files uploaded and downloaded to our FTP site, but also ensures that we are not stepping on each other’s models.”

“3DEXPERIENCE Works version and revision management is very robust and is working really well. The integrated data storage and management that it provides is one of the reasons we chose the solution. There’s no need to buy a server, set up a VPN [virtual private network], or spend resources on administration because it’s all taken care of in the cloud.”

“I was debating on getting an entrepreneurship minor or starting my own company. I decided to make the leap. Starting a company is you putting yourself out there. If you have an idea, go for it. You can’t be too worried about not having it too perfect or ready. If you think it’s going to make a difference, put your idea out there. I wouldn’t be in this spot with my company if I didn’t take that chance.”
