Case Study: Groupe Maurin boosts designer productivity and enables 'try-before-you-buy' catalog downloads with Solid Edge

Using pre-designed part models enables customers to try before they buy

Groupe Maurin, which brings together Emile Maurin, Michaud Chailly and Béné Inox, supplies more than 200,000 catalog items to over 30,000 industrial customers worldwide. Facing the need to let customers “try before they buy,” prove the usability of standard parts and deliver industrial‑grade products, Groupe Maurin adopted Solid Edge software from Siemens Digital Industries Software to create, validate and publish 3D CAD models and make catalog items easily accessible for download.

Using Solid Edge, Groupe Maurin provides pre‑designed part models that customers can download and fit into their assemblies, simplifying selection and reducing duplicated design work. The Solid Edge solution increased designers’ productivity, saved customers time by eliminating redundancies, and supported a consistent, long‑lasting supply‑chain catalog of 200,000+ validated items distributed to more than 30,000 customers.
