i3Detroit - Customer Case Study

i3Detroit, Metro Detroit’s largest community-run DIY workshop, needed accessible, professional tools to support a wide range of makers, from hobbyists to self-taught learners, for everything from shop-floor layouts to 3D printing. Solid Edge supplies that capability—providing Solid Edge 2D Drafting, the Solid Edge Student Edition, and the Solid Edge portal—to give members the design, prototyping, and collaboration tools they require.

Solid Edge delivered a turnkey solution: free 2D drafting, perpetual Student Edition licenses for 3D modeling and printing, and cloud-based project management via the Solid Edge portal with 5 GB of free storage. The result is faster prototyping and easier collaboration at i3Detroit—members can produce and share .DWG or Solid Edge files, manage projects online, and keep tools free and continuously available.
