Case Study: Fogg Filler achieves faster assembly and 24-hour prototyping with SOLIDWORKS

Filling The Need For More Complex Machine Designs With Solidworks

Fogg Filler, a leading manufacturer of rotary filling systems, faced growing market demands for more complex, higher‑performance custom machinery and needed to speed design-to-prototype cycles. To address this, Fogg Filler adopted SolidWorks, deploying SOLIDWORKS Professional and SOLIDWORKS Premium for 3D design and simulation of motion, stress and fluid flows to catch interferences before manufacturing.

Using SolidWorks’ 3D modeling and simulation tools, Fogg Filler moved to virtual prototyping and manufacture-ready models, enabling faster iterations and better integration of components. The change cut assembly time by four weeks, reduced prototype build time from weeks to 24 hours, improved machine performance, lowered fabrication and assembly costs, and unlocked new product innovations.
