“Our robots are complex systems, requiring the integration of information from sensors related to speech, facial expressions, and body movements that results in a high level of communication and coordinated actions. Our teams need access to a complete set of 3D design and engineering tools to meet our objectives.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Management wanted to ramp up new product development, so we needed to acquire 3D design, simulation, and communication tools to achieve efficiency and productivity gains to support that effort."
“SolidWorks has provided incredible value, and has helped us to respond to our engineering challenges quickly, innovatively, and cost-effectively.”
"From incoming part lots to in-process assembly inspections, SOLIDWORKS Inspection software helps us catch more unacceptable parts and eliminate assembly issues."
“Human error contributes to our inspection challenges, so we needed a system to help us eliminate it.”
“The success of our company depended on developing products the right way from the beginning. There was no margin for error. To be faster and better than competitors, we needed the design visualization, communication, and production capabilities of SOLIDWORKS and the process control, workflow automation."
"Because 99 percent of our products are designed in SOLIDWORKS, it’s much easier to set up all of the possible configuration combinations that are used by SOLIDWORKS Sell than with other solutions. SOLIDWORKS Sell is less costly and more affordable, and the implementation of SOLIDWORKS Sell is much smoother and easier."
“With SOLIDWORKS Plastics Premium, we can optimize the part and the mold. With SOLIDWORKS Simulation Premium and SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation, we can attack the issues associated with placement and manufacturing of the cooling channels. These solutions allow us to approach the research from all angles.”
“As educators, we’re driven by what employers want and what students need to land jobs. The success of this program demonstrates that teaching solidworks increases employment placement.”
“What we’ve discovered is that SOLIDWORKS skills benefit graduates who work in manufacturing. SOLIDWORKS is much more than a design tool. It’s also a manufacturing tool that has become more and more important at the production/technical level.”
“With SolidWorks Flow Simulation software, I was able to produce gridindependent solutions and report multiple flow gradients with high fidelity and detail in a single day.”
“Dyson’s done everything that everyone in engineering wants to do. He has a lightbulb moment and makes it a reality.”
"To match the continual curvature of today’s smartphones, we use a hybrid of surface and solid modeling in SOLIDWORKS. We find the fill and boundary surface tools give us the best results for controlling tangency and curvature to obtain the right shape. Creating the blends and transitions in our products is only possible using the powerful surfacing tools in SOLIDWORKS Professional."
