Telstar Industrial, S.L.
Telstar designers use SolidWorks to develop this remote handling system for the ITER project, a joint international effort to build a fusion device to prove the feasibility of fusion power.
The Results
- Shortened design time by one month
- Saved $17,000 in development costs
- Reduced errors by 45 percent
- Acquired tools for animation and visualization
"SolidWorks CAD software is easy to learn and use with good tools for designing anything we want."

The Challenge
Telstar Industrial, S.L. is the direct heir of Telstar, S.A., which was founded in 1963. It is concerned mainly with designing, manufacturing, and selling vacuum technology and air ultra-filtration equipment goods. The company needed a very capable 3D CAD system in conjunction with its work on the ITER project, a joint international effort to build a fusion device that is twice the size of the largest current devices with the goal of demonstrating the scientific and technical feasibility of fusion power.
The Solution
The company chose SolidWorks CAD software because it is easy to learn and use, yet is highly functional. Telsart also values the system's broad data compatibility with other applications, particularly on the collaborative, international ITER project.
