Case Study: Hutton Technologies helps farmers save time and improve irrigation with Solid Edge

Hutton Technologies helps farmers trade 5 hours of bucket carrying for 1 hour of pumping with Solid Edge

Hutton Technologies, a UK-based industrial machinery company, sought to develop a safe and efficient water pump for smallholder farmers in developing countries. These farmers faced the dangerous and time-consuming challenge of manually carrying water for irrigation, often from crocodile-infested water sources. Using Solid Edge software, the company aimed to design a solution that would significantly reduce this burden.

By implementing Solid Edge, Hutton Technologies was able to design and develop its simple yet impactful water pump. The solution from Solid Edge enabled farmers to exchange five hours of carrying water buckets for just one hour of pumping. This innovation has the potential to massively improve crop yields and increase income for the millions of people supported by smallholder farmers.
