Growing a Global Manufacturing Consulting Firm With Solid Works

Overview This case study briefs about BWIR design and manufacturing systems developed in consultation with services of Barry-Wehmiller Companies as well as some of the world's leading manufacturers. A thorough study of existing CAD solutions by BWIR resulted in the Barry-Wehmiller Companies selecting SolidWorks software as its standard 3D CAD solution worldwide. It selected the SolidWorks 3D mechanical design system as its standard design environment because of the system's large assembly functionality; short learning curve, and communications capabilities. This helped to shorten their design cycles and production time significantly; cut costs associated with ECOs and rework; and improved communication capabilities with their customers.
