A Solid Edge Case Study
CREAT, a Beijing-based power distribution equipment manufacturer, needed to modernize its product R&D and improve design efficiency and manufacturing processes as it expanded its portfolio of substations, switchgears and transformers. To address this challenge, CREAT turned to the Solid Edge solution from Siemens Digital Industries Software to move its development platform to 3D CAD.
Using Solid Edge, CREAT made a seamless transition to 3D CAD that streamlined design workflows and better integrated design with manufacturing operations. The Solid Edge deployment helped accelerate R&D and production readiness for complex products—supporting CREAT’s rapid growth (the company reported a 35.67% year‑over‑year operating income increase in 2014) and positioning it for continued expansion.
