"Due to our success in increasing efficiencies using the SOLIDWORKS platform, we’ve now made it mandatory for all of our designers to pass either the Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional [CSWP] or Certified SOLIDWORKS Expert [CSWE] exam. We made these certifications a requirement because we believe we can increase efficiency further by …

“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.”

“Using SOLIDWORKS Simulation tools, we can help our customers reduce weight by removing material where it isn’t needed, then send the customer the simulation report. This helps us get a design right on the first prototype, in most cases.”

“NextEngine and SolidWorks software are both powerful tools that are surprisingly easy to use, and they work well together. The scanner is very reliable, and the scanning setup can be wickedly fast. In this case, I just teed it up on the AutoDrive part positioner and started shooting. Since SolidWorks …

“The fact that Composer is a SolidWorks product and part of Dassault Systemes meant that we’d be going with something that was leading edge and not just a stand-alone product. We wanted to work with a company we knew would be around for the long term.”

”We really needed to find an effective solution to this problem and we started to search the market for suitable documentation tools. Since we already were SolidWorks users it was natural to look at SolidWorks Composer first, and we soon found we didn’t have to look any further. After having …

”Now I have no problems finding the time to update the user manuals when we deliver a new or improved machine. I even have time to try different solutions and not just accept the first one that comes to mind. With SolidWorks Composer I haven’t just cut document production time …

“Using the real-time collision detection capabilities, we are able to detect areas of collision and interference on the computer, and fix them before building a single prototype. In the past, we would have had to build a prototype of the whole assembly to understand the same thing, a costly and …

“Every year, we need to update our existing product lines as well as put new products on the shelves. The pace of our product development efforts demands a flexible yet technically powerful design package.”

"From an engineering standpoint, SolidWorks software is easy to learn and easy to use. That’s why we do all of our design work in SolidWorks."

"Our product is on the market and has been received very well by the anesthesiologists and operating room personnel in large part because of SolidWorks Simulatoin analysis results."

“SolidWorks software enables us to do what no one else can. The success of our CAD effort gave us the confidence to move ahead with additional SolidWorks Simulation and PDM tools.”

“The ability to create compelling photorealistic renderings and 3D animations of our systems gives us a real leg up. We use design visuals in our product literature, marketing materials, and technical instructions, but where they really have an impact is during the sales process. Whenever we can get our design …

“By gaining a better understanding of the physics involved, we developed a more efficient system. Simulation capabilities provide a huge benefit and give us a real competitive advantage.”

“In the water treatment industry, lead-time is often more important than price. With the combined SolidWorks and TactonWorks solution, once our proposal is accepted, design goes through engineering in just a few days, then out to fabrication. This type of automation has been a key factor in our business growth.”
