645 SolidWorks Testimonials

“When I have that understanding, I’m able to bring that part to conclusion just so much quicker.”

“The 3DEXPERIENCE platform gave us access to SOLIDWORKS CAD, SOLIDWORKS Simulation analysis, SOLIDWORKS Visualize rendering tools, and a cloud-managed PLM [product lifecycle management] system. Our team designed, prototyped, and ultimately built the Version 2 system thanks to all of the tools provided by the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. I’m not sure if we’d have even been able to create and launch the Version 2 system with our existing design software, but if we could it would have taken at least twice as long as it did with the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.”

"Many of our product designs comprise thousands of parts, and a single roller coaster train can contain upwards of 8,000 individual components. So we needed a system that could handle large, complex assemblies. Our goals were to shorten design cycles, improve product quality, and enhance design visualization, while reducing prototype development costs."

“SolidWorks Simulation capabilities allowed us to put the hydraulic brake line detangler through its paces—all on the computer screen—ensuring that the product was safe and effective before Mike Montgomery attempted his first stunt, jump, or ride.”

“It’s very beneficial for the students to have solidworks threaded throughout the curriculum. The students have become so proficient with solidworks that we’ve included the certified solidworks associate certification test as part of our final exam.”

“With SolidWorks, students can undertake more substantial projects, SolidWorks helps students make intelligent decisions more quickly and accurately, and complete projects with a level of detail, refinement, and consistency that we haven’t seen before.”

“With SolidWorks, students get a real jump start on industry tools and methodologies, SolidWorks serves as both a learning interface and a tool. The software’s incredibly intuitive and establishes a more practical, parametric paradigm for thinking about design.”

“To cover more ground and bett er prepare students for work in industry, we sought to tie in our Foundations class with the courses that follow, We wanted to give students the necessary tools to not only visualize a design but also communicate with engineers and work with manufacturing techniques to build their own creations.”

“With SOLIDWORKS Simulation Professional software, we run linear static stress analyses not only on critical components but also on each subassembly of the rig. This capability has allowed us to reduce the weight of our rigs by 10 percent while maintaining strength and performance.”

"We make a lot of models and prototypes of our shoes, and SolidWorks has helped us to make greater use of virtual models. Overall, we have cut our development costs by 50 percent.”

“We set out to develop a computer-controlled, robotics-assisted system that could codify this surgical technique and allow more surgeons to conduct this procedure with reproducible precision. We needed a 3D design platform that would enable us to develop and visualize robotic concepts, and communicate our ideas with surgeons.”

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

“The combination of Solidworks design and simulation tools enabled us to make the best choices for functional efficiency of equipment as well as manufacturing.”

“This is a new field for us, and we are still learning the powers of the software. We received training at our reseller, Cadware, which helped us to understand the importance of model preparation. We rely more and more on SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation for new studies.”

“R&D had progressed to the point at which we needed to streamline processes and refine the design. In addition to needing better design, simulation, and visualization tools, the engineers that we hired had experience using one 3D system in particular. That was SolidWorks.”
