PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

For the smooth running of any design department, you need to make sure all your engineers are working in a consistent manner.

We can show your CAD/ Drawing team how to use the best tools and options within SOLIDWORKS, making their workflow as seamless as possible. We cover subjects such as, CAD vendor interaction, workstation optimisation, CAD guidelines advice, software deployment strategy and more.

Whether you are looking for photorealistic images for your brochures, to show real animations on your website, or instructional manuals and other visually appealing material to engage your audience and bring your message to life, our experienced visual consultancy team is ready to help.

We can assist in creating high quality renders, animations, exploded views, Virtual Reality scenarios and more. We also offer assistance with technical documentation, such as maintenance manuals and instructional graphics. If you need a fast turnaround and access to powerful hardware to achieve high quality results faster than you would on your own, our Rendering & Animation services may be the solution you were looking for.

We offer both bespoke and configured solutions for companies that design and manufacture including other processes and departments within that organisation. We are able to automate the push and pull of data into other systems such as ERP, PDM and CRM platforms. Furthermore, we can create macros that work within SOLIDWORKS and DriveWorks to manage data through post-generative tasks to speed up design task even further or to meet very customer specific needs.

All PDM (Product Data Management) offerings are tightly integrated into SOLIDWORKS allowing your team to focus on design and innovation instead of time-consuming administration. With our implementation services we save you the hassle of launching your PDM system on your own.

Our SOLIDWORKS PDM implementation programs are based on proven methodologies that use industry-standard best practices, so you can gain the benefits of a PDM system and start realising return of investment in the shortest amount of time.

By utilising the Application Programming Interface (API) for SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional, our customers find that with our services, they are able to introduce additional functionality to PDM that allows them to save time by automating and programming key sections of their processes.

As well as specifying and developing those bespoke solutions, the team at Solid Solutions also develop and support a range of core tools that enhance or increase the existing capabilities of PDM Professional.

Best practices get best results. The top-performing companies and their design teams make sure they meet cost targets while staying under budget and ahead of deadlines. But how do you do that in a world where your designs have to go from engineers to analysts and back again before you can even prototype?

Simulation software empowers design engineers by indicating how product designs will behave before they are built. We offer powerful, intuitive and accurate 3D engineering solutions for all product engineers. If you are looking to improve your designs but don’t have the required expertise, we offer training and consultancy that can be tailored to meet your requests.

Automate repetitive tasks and free up time for your designers and engineers to work on product development and innovation.

Using DriveWorks as our tool of choice, we offer you support with everything from complete software implementation and training, to full turnkey solutions for design automation. Our customers claim design automation has had a transformative effect in their companies’ culture, allowing their teams to be more creative and productive, as well helping keep product knowledge and data within the company, not just in the hands of a few employees.

Save time by customising, automating and programming key sections of your workflow and get faster return on your SOLIDWORKS investment. With this service, you can keep your design team happy and productive by eliminating tedious and repetitive work, freeing up their time to do real engineering.

SOLIDWORKS add-ins to address specific business requirements. Many of these programs are now fundamental tools within their product development processes and are responsible for reducing the design and development cycle giving our customers a competitive advantage.
