Case Study: Craftsman Automation Pvt. Ltd. boosts throughput 40% and cuts cycle times 30% with SOLIDWORKS

Growing automated manufacturing business with SOLIDWORKS® Solutions

Craftsman Automation Pvt. Ltd., a diversified light‑engineering and tooling company based in Coimbatore, needed to increase manufacturing capacity and shorten cycle times to support growth and expansion into molded and cast parts. To eliminate errors from 2D workflows and better consume customers’ 3D data, the company standardized on SolidWorks solutions, using SOLIDWORKS Professional, SOLIDWORKS Premium, SOLIDWORKS Simulation Professional and SOLIDWORKS Composer for design, analysis, and technical communication.

By implementing these SolidWorks products, Craftsman now runs FEA validation on every tooling design, speeds development, and improves communication with customers. The move boosted annual throughput by 40%, cut production cycle times by up to 30%, improved tooling and part quality, increased customer satisfaction, and enabled expansion into injection‑molded and cast parts markets.
