The Challenge
Taiwan-based Ajames Design House provides high-quality industrial and mechanical design for consumer and electronics products. The firm needed to create surfaces and curves more effectively than it had previously been able to with AutoCAD. The designers also wanted to be able to share designs more easily and effectively with their clients.
The Solution
The firm evaluated several design engineering software products, including Mechanical Desktop, Pro/ENGINEER, and SolidWorks. The group chose SolidWorks because of its superior affordability and ease of use. With SolidWorks, the firm has reduced product design time by approximately 50 percent. The free SolidWorks Viewer enables designers to share designs more easily over the Internet, and PhotoWorks helps to create effective photorealistic renderings for presentations. Other beneficial features include the simplicity of making part features, the ease of creating 2D drawings from 3D models, and increased flexibility through the wide choice of integrated applications.
