Case Study: Modular Services Company achieves accelerated time-to-market and 99% faster sheet-metal conversion with SolidWorks

Innovating a new medical pump delivery system with SolidWorks software

Modular Services Company, a designer and manufacturer of headwall systems for clinical environments, needed a more capable 3D design platform to develop an innovative Pump Star pump transport system and support increased product customization. After finding Autodesk Inventor insufficient, the company switched to SolidWorks, deploying SolidWorks 3D CAD and three network licenses of SolidWorks Professional for product development, manufacturing and sheet‑metal fabrication.

SolidWorks provided a complete 3D design and visualization toolset— including improved assembly handling, sheet‑metal features, eDrawings, rendering and CAM compatibility—enabling Modular Services Company to accelerate Pump Star’s time‑to‑market and improve communication with customers and clinicians. Measurable impacts include dramatically better assembly performance and a 99% reduction in converting 2D sheet‑metal flats to 3D (from up to four hours to about two minutes), along with overall faster, more flexible product development using SolidWorks.
