A SolidWorks Case Study
Indmar Products, Inc., a specialist in converting automobile engines into marine inboard engines for jet boats and high-performance towboats, faced slow, manual and fragmented design processes after trying several CAD systems. To standardize collaboration with boat manufacturers and suppliers and to streamline engineering workflows, Indmar adopted the SolidWorks 3D product development platform.
Using SolidWorks for 3D design, FEA, CFD, technical communication and PDM, Indmar realized about a 40% reduction in design time and far easier data sharing with customers and vendors. SolidWorks also enabled faster innovation—Indmar developed the Strainer Pro entirely in SolidWorks—helping accelerate marinization projects and improve product functionality and maintenance.
