Case Study: Remmele Engineering achieves 25–30% faster design cycles and builds an advanced drug‑delivery manufacturing system with SolidWorks

Creating an innovative drug delivery manufacturing system with SolidWorks software

Remmele Engineering, Inc., a supplier of advanced manufacturing systems, faced rising complexity and tighter communication needs that outgrew its AutoCAD 2D workflows. After evaluating 15 platforms, Remmele selected SolidWorks 3D CAD software (including SolidWorks Simulation and related tools) to provide 3D modeling, large-assembly handling, and better customer communication.

Using SolidWorks, Remmele developed a 4,000+ part manufacturing system for Aradigm’s AERx pulmonary drug delivery system, leveraging large-assembly capabilities, simulation, eDrawings, and 3D ContentCentral to improve visualization, configuration, and quality control. The SolidWorks-based solution cut design cycles by 25–30%, reduced errors, sped CAM data transfer and documentation, and measurably boosted productivity and product quality.
