Case Study: Isono Body achieves faster vehicle development with Solid Edge

Isono Body cuts product development time by 33% with Solid Edge

Isono Body Co., Ltd., a truck body manufacturer, faced challenges with its conventional 2D CAD-based development process, which was error-prone and led to costly re-manufacturing. The company needed to accelerate time-to-market and improve collaboration between engineering and manufacturing to remain competitive. They turned to the vendor Solid Edge for a 3D CAD solution to address these issues.

By implementing Solid Edge and the add-on program MACsheet SEG5, Isono Body achieved a more efficient 3D-based product development process. This solution enabled virtual assembly, improved sheet metal modeling, and facilitated better internal and external communication. As a result, product development time was reduced by 33 percent, outsourcing costs were considerably cut, and lead time for delivery was shortened from three months to two. The vendor Solid Edge helped Isono Body dramatically improve design efficiency and collaboration.
