Clover Industries, INC.
SUCCESS METRICS
- Reduced design cycles by 66 percent
- Cut costs related to production errors
- Improved design collaboration with sister companies

The Challenge
Clover Industries, Inc., specializes in the design and manufacture of single-stage and telescopic hydraulic cylinders, piston accumulators, and intensifiers for the oil & gas, military, industrial, and construction markets. Following its acquisition by The Oilgear Company, the hydraulic cylinder manufacturer needed to collaborate more closely and efficiently with its sister companies. To facilitate this integration, the company needed to implement and share a common, easy-to-use product data management (PDM) system.
The Solution
Clover Industries selected SolidWorks® Enterprise PDM software, implementing 100 licenses system-wide, because it is easy to use, is completely integrated with SolidWorks software, and supports multisite access to design data. By choosing SolidWorks Enterprise PDM, Clover Industries has reduced its design cycles by 66 percent, cut costs related to production errors, improved design collaboration with its sister companies, and standardized and simplified its workflows.
