“By making the switch to SOLIDWORKS, we have cut our design cycle from 16 weeks to less than 12 weeks. We used to create three prototypes prior to deciding on a production model; now, we only need one. This has saved a minimum of 160 man hours and substantial prototyping …

“The only way to manufacture our CCRs cost-effectively, while maintaining our high-quality standards, is to use SolidWorks software. SolidWorks Premium is a lot more open and intuitive, and provides us with a seamless product development and production capability.”

“Whether we are using simulation to meet restrictive weight requirements, PhotoView 360 to create photorealistic renderings, SOLIDWORKS eDrawings to communicate with customers, or SOLIDWORKS Composer to accelerate documentation development, SOLIDWORKS provides us with the full range of tools that we need to continue leading the way in the development of …

“The level of automation that we have been able to achieve via SQL integrations with SOLIDWORKS Electrical has allowed us to save significant amounts of time. Our designers report drawing speed increases ranging from 25 to 50 percent, and a detailed look at our projects over a five-year period revealed …

“I was trained by xLM Solutions; I then trained the CAD group, purchasing, and the work center leaders, and the work center leaders trained their personnel. The training was a breeze—no training session took longer than an hour, with most lasting only 30 minutes. Everyone found it very easy to …

"SolidWorks has been a great change from our previous CAD software. It helped us to quickly create concepts, review them in vivid 3D detail with NASA, and develop a very sophisticated design."

“Although we needed 2D drawings for production, we also had to communicate with ESA and NASA partners, as well as address how the MARES system would operate and fit within the close confines of the ISS’s European Columbus Module. In short, we had to use a 3D design tool to …

“The combination of our expertise, the integration of SolidWorks Simulation, and the software’s range of capabilities has allowed us to cut development time in half.”

“Many volunteers are especially interested in the visual look of the replica does it look like the original photographs? Seeing their excitement as they passed the iPad around the table was great to see.”

"Because SOLIDWORKS is a full-featured, integrated product development environment, it helps us design very quickly and competitively, thanks to an extensive range of technologies and tight integration between all of the modules that we use across the entire order lead- time. The seamless integration of all SOLIDWORKS solutions used by …

“SolidWorks provided the design capabilities that we needed to grow the business.”

“By automating design and manufacturing processes, SolidWorks has helped us cut development costs by 50 percent.”

"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."

“Using SOLIDWORKS Professional design software has improved communication and collaboration with our design and fabrication partners, With SOLIDWORKS Composer software, it’s easier to create high-quality documentation materials, which are more accurate and up-to-date.”

"The traditional business view of sustainable design is that it makes products more expensive. The pilot project with SOLIDWORKS Sustainability demonstrates that this view is invalid and that sustainable design practices can improve processes and save money."
