“Without SolidWorks Composer and this animation. It would have been very hard for us to win this €700,000 contract.”

“Our injection-mold specialist used SOLIDWORKS Plastics software to determine where the gating locations should be to minimize the appearance of sink marks and knit lines. The simulations also enabled us to understand that by keeping the device in the mold a little longer and at higher pressure, we could contain …

"SOLIDWORKS saves time whenever we need to customize a chassis or fabricate sheet metal, which happens whenever we’re working on a new line."

“With SOLIDWORKS Industrial Designer software, you don’t have to think about how to build a shape and have the unconstrained freedom to explore new concepts and innovative ideas.”

“With SolidWorks Simulation, I can identify and resolve potential issues during design, so that when we mold those initial pieces, they are right the first time. It’s an incredible tool that has let us save 30 to 60 percent in capital costs in the development of new products.”

“We chose SolidWorks Premium software because CAD-integrated simulation is more efficient and better for incorporating results as part of design.”

“SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic software has enabled us to accelerate development by letting us quickly determine the best cabinet size to house selected components by providing the cabinet layout tools that we need to place 2D component footprints inside the cabinet while meeting assembly space requirements.”

“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 prefer to reuse designs whenever possible to reduce our design times and costs. With SOLIDWORKS Enterprise PDM’s search capability, it’s easy to find an existing design, using an attribute like material, size, or function.”

“With PDM, we are able to do more with our existing resources. If we didn’t have PDM, I don’t think we’d be able to support our current throughput while maintaining quality control. PDM lets us produce systems quickly while making sure that they’re fabricated correctly.”

“SOLIDWORKS is hands-down what our members wanted to work with the most.”

“We immediately understood that SolidWorks Composer could help us obtain the global reach and technical credibility we needed to grow the business.”

“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.”

“We discovered that SOLIDWORKS is an industry leader in the development of consumer products, is easy to use, and provides access to an integrated, robust suite of design and engineering solutions. We chose SOLIDWORKS solutions because they help us give our start-ups the best chance for success within the 16 …

“We started Switchmate to design a smart light switch that is super simple to set up and that makes everyday life a little bit easier. Users just snap it on over an existing light switch, and then use the app to turn the lights on or off, or control anything …
