645 SolidWorks Testimonials

“With SolidWorks, students get a real jump start on industry tools and methodologies, SolidWorks serves as both a learning interface and a tool. The software’s incredibly intuitive and establishes a more practical, parametric paradigm for thinking about design.”

“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.”

"SOLIDWORKS helps us work more quickly and collaborate more effectively."

“We were charged, fi rst, with confi rming that a PDM system would increase effi ciency, result in greater design reuse, and improve resource utilization, and, second, with choosing the best PDM solution to meet our needs."

“SOLIDWORKS Simulation Premium software really helped us address a range of structural issues related to reducing weight while maintaining structural integrity and safety. We ran lots of optimization loops to take mass out of the vehicle. The SOLIDWORKS analysis tools enabled us to reach a design that is lighter, stronger, and less expensive to produce.”

“Parts of our bike required numerous iterations and microiterations. Doing our testing virtually with SOLIDWORKS simulation literally saved hundreds of part prototypes and one or two complete prototype builds.”

“Using SolidWorks for industrial design provides me with a definite advantage."

"Students will have more job opportunities by having experience with SolidWorks CAD software."

“We started using SolidWorks software when we won a job that required SolidWorks software data as the delivered CAD format. Our headquarters in Nashville, Tennessee, was already implementing the software, so we made the decision to transition to 100 percent SolidWorks 3D CAD software at our Phoenix facility.”

“The system had to be designed to operate with different feeders, conveyors, and manual assembly systems. The project also involved creating an assembly of approximately 600 components in a relatively small space, We envisioned the Viper as a robotic cell on an assembly line or as a standalone assembly station. Either way, we needed to fit the system into a tight space. We were given a 650 millimeter envelope, and had to shoehorn the system into that envelope.”

“We wanted to build a solar vehicle that was uniquely Singapore-designed and built, but still retained the look and feel of a commercial vehicle, It was a long journey to reach this level of design, experience and technology –six years, three races, more than nine different prototypes, including solar cars to create the SunSPEC5 model.”

“Some were good, some were bad, but none was even close to perfect. The trickiest part is easily the knob, which is crucial for performance. We wanted our knob design to start with the best qualities of what already existed and then reflect our innovations.”

“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 software is parametric, every tweak to the model was relatively simple, and dependent dimensions and features all changed automatically. I’ve used and taught a number of CAD programs in the past, but I always come back to SolidWorks software, because it lets me and my students focus on the design, not on learning software.”

“We have several cylinders that exert up to 1.5 tons in the center or at the end of the [weightlifting] bars.”

"We can do these expensive and complex drop tests directly in [3DEXPERIENCE Works Simulation], which is a big time-saver. The opportunity we have with the 3DEXPERIENCE Works Simulation is that we can reject early [design] ideas digitally, saving a lot of money and time [on the back end]."
