Case Study: Thermax Ltd achieves 70% reduction in drawing lead time with SOLIDWORKS

Achieving on Time Design Release Using SolidWorks Drafting Automation

Thermax Ltd, a global engineering company serving the energy and environment sectors, faced a critical bottleneck: drawing and release processes for large plant assemblies and pressure vessels were time-consuming, relied on scarce drafting resources, and delayed project delivery. To speed up design release and improve consistency, Thermax adopted SolidWorks drafting automation tools.

Using SolidWorks design software with Design Tables, Excel integration and the SOLIDWORKS API, Thermax automated pressure vessel design and drawing generation. The SolidWorks-driven solution cut drawing lead time by about 70%, shortened engineering cycle times, improved productivity and consistency even for novice users, and enabled faster, on-time design releases and plant deliveries.
