“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.”
“Using SolidWorks for industrial design provides me with a definite advantage."
“The SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation studies enabled us to customize the tool by putting a band around the bit, so that two-thirds or more of the air went down the shaft, We needed an adequate split of air to let the cuttings fall by gravity, where the trapped miners kept busy clearing about eight dump-truck loads of spoil. SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation allowed us to recon gure the tool and reach the miners faster.”
“Solidworks helps us a lot in the design phase because it’s very versatile and intuitive, enabling us to halve the time required for design and implementation of drawings.”
“We needed a robust modeling environment that could import and accommodate the varying forms of design data, and a PDM [product data management] system that not only supported diverse data types but also enabled collaboration and facilitated workflows on a global scale. On this project, openness, usability, and flexibility are the key requirements.”
"With SOLIDWORKS integrated solutions, we’ve been able to support rapid, sustainable growth without missing a beat, primarily because of our ability to automate sales, marketing, design, and production."
“Having all of the models correctly set up in SOLIDWORKS enables us to develop designs more quickly and easily, cutting design time from a couple of weeks to a couple of days.”
“The diversity of SOLIDWORKS as our main design platform gives us a distinct advantage. Where some jobs are purely industrial engineering, many are heavily led by aesthetics. SOLIDWORKS continually blows minds of my artist and graphic design partners this lets us into a niche where the engineering designer can devise or develop aesthetics to a standard that often would demand a conventional artist’s skills. Crucially this approach seriously reduces lead time because even from early project stages, we are designing for manufacture feasibility, yet to a standard of aesthetic that is top of its game. This means a client can go straight into making things without the inevitable compromises and delays to realisation.”
“The implementation of SolidWorks Enterprise PDM software helped us to quickly transition from a small, family-run company to an agile, high technology company with hundreds of users. The organization that PDM establishes has enabled us to more efficiently manage our work from start to finish, from providing estimates to managing production.”
“Obviously, having access to each other’s designs allows us to collaborate more efficiently. We no longer have to email files or fax drawings, or worry about whether someone’s working with the correct revision. An added benefit is that SolidWorks Enterprise PDM lets us manage work across the organization. If the workload is high in Milwaukee and low in Leeds, they can easily shift some of the work and maximize their utilization of resources.”
"Before we implemented SOLIDWORKS Electrical software, there were two different workflows and two separate bills of materials (BOMs) for electrical and mechanical design. Now, we have a single platform, one workflow, and a unified BOM for everyone, which results in fewer mistakes and misunderstandings and greater attention to the overall branding aspects of how our machines look and operate on the factory floor."
"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.”
