645 SolidWorks Testimonials

“It’s easy to make design changes and samples with SolidWorks software. The improved design visualization helps us to investigate how a change will impact the product. This helps us improve quality and better prepare for testing, while saving time and money.”

“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.”

“The corner treatment of weldments is truly awesome, because it gives us a clear idea of the joints.”

"SOLIDWORKS allows us to reduce development and lead-times, as well as reduce the time required for research and development."

“The speed with which I can churn out sheet metal designs with SOLIDWORKS has surprised our fabricator, who said my output is more than what three of his designers could produce. That’s the type of productivity that is helping grow the company.”

“It’s not just the ability to model anything that you can imagine in SolidWorks. It’s being able to work out in SolidWorks how to pragmatically design and build your imagination.”

“Time is money, so anything we can do to speed up the process will improve customer satisfaction. Whether it’s a request for specials or configurable models for download, SolidWorks is helping us achieve that ultimate goal.”

“The customers want to see the product working in their assembly. ETECH leverages SolidWorks design configuration capabilities to provide fully configurable models for download. Customers have downloaded millions of models that are configured this way.”

“Weight is a critical design issue. While a mechanical engineer is interested in structural stresses and the positioning of the drivetrain, a naval architect focuses on hydrodynamics—balancing weight for stability and maneuverability—which affects how electrical engineers position solar cells, batteries, circuits, and motors. We all have to work together, and SolidWorks facilitates this process. In one instance, SolidWorks animations allowed us to understand how we could let our batteries slide from side to side with the motion of the boat to improve performance.”

“Ease of implementation and maintenance is what sets Solidworks enterprise pdm apart from the other pdm systems out there.”

“At times, we work with outside design contractors and suppliers. Instead of dealing with FTP file transfers and verifying different versions, we can give a partner access to only the part of the database (vault) that is necessary for completing the task, which is much more secure and efficient.”

“With SolidWorks software, we engineered the product line from top to bottom in less than a year. This was done in record time. Getting just a single product out the door can take two years or more when working in older 3D systems or in 2D.”

“Solid model data feeds directly into these analysis and simulation tools. So we can evaluate the design early in the process and easily correct problems before getting to hardware testing or the shop floor. Eliminating these build-and-test cycles shaves months off the typical product development cycle.”

“The whole project would be impossible without an easy-tolearn CAD system, and SOLIDWORKS has allowed us to build upon the work of past teams to grow, improve, and become more competitive.”

"It might seem difficult for a non-profit organization to have the same technological tools as industrial manufacturers do. That would have been the case if not for the initiative of VISIATIV. They listened to what we do and gave us access to SOLIDWORKS’ cutting-edge technologies."
