The Challenge
Art Morrison Enterprises, Inc., a leading designer of race cars, needed an affordable 3D modeling system that provided a smooth transition from concept to design to the shop floor.
The Solution
After evaluating AutoCAD, we chose SolidWorks software because it is reasonably priced, has an intuitive Windows-based interface, and is extremely powerful. The software includes a variety of time-saving innovations like sketch and curve-driven pattern capability, the ability to create edge and base flanges, sheet-metal design, and SolidWorks eDrawings. Whether it's design automation or collaboration improvement, SolidWorks provides us the tools we need to get it right the first time.
"No more fabrication errors!"
