“Our schematics layouts definitely look nicer and make a better impression with customers. We’ve added a good number of new symbols to our SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic database, which enables me not only to create more aesthetically pleasing schematics but also to complete them more efficiently and cost-effectively.”

“For example, locating solid-state electrical devices in a confined space generates heat. By having all design domains on one platform, we can simulate heat flow inside the cabinet by bringing in the thermal effects of electronic components and satisfy demands for miniaturization while maintaining the high levels of quality for …

“I discovered that we’re more Pavlovian than we might think and that developing good habits—like drinking more water, exercising regularly, or flossing daily—requires an environmental cue and emotional reward."

“We can take a mold and use different colors to designate different surfaces, and then quickly send an eDrawings file of the mold design to a customer. By improving our design communications, we greatly reduce the likelihood of errors and misunderstandings. Because SolidWorks software is so easy to use, and …

“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]."

“We are, by the nature of our business, multitaskers. We move from project to project very quickly and often need to juggle more than one project at a time. Using SolidWorks Enterprise PDM, we can manage different projects and data more effectively. In addition to tightening revision control, the software …

“Our high-end home music reproduction systems are designed, engineered, and built by people who care about lifestyle, music, the environment, quality, fairness, and the trust that we’ve earned over the last 40 years.”

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

“R&D had progressed to the point at which we needed to streamline processes and refine the design. In addition to needing better design, simulation, and visualization tools, the engineers that we hired had experience using one 3D system in particular. That was SolidWorks.”

“Designing the engine and main structural frame was fairly straightforward, involving generic shapes. Creating the fan blades and housings was another matter. On some parts, everything is a curve, and many are made using composite materials. SolidWorks gave us the surfacing, simulation, and flow simulation tools that we needed to …

“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.”

"The company chose SOLIDWORKS software for its ease of use, which allows new engineers to get up to speed quickly.”

"To be successful, we needed to leapfrog the competition by developing the top-performing product on the market in a short period of time. The decision to deploy SolidWorks as our CAD platform was an important part of our strategy."

“I loved power tools, and making and repairing things, like fixing my bike, building the background for my sixth-grade science fair project, or running the phone line extension required to put a telephone in my room. Although I studied career development in depth, I gained an understanding of the value …
