Case Study: JL Audio, Inc. achieves faster time-to-market and modernized installation instructions with SOLIDWORKS Composer

Modernizing speaker installation instructions with solidworks composer

JL Audio, Inc., a leading manufacturer of high-performance audio systems, needed to modernize its installation instructions and user manuals so documentation could be developed concurrently with product design and delivered on smartphones, tablets, and the web. To solve this, the company adopted SOLIDWORKS Composer from SolidWorks to generate visuals and animations that update automatically as designs evolve.

Using SOLIDWORKS Composer, SolidWorks enabled JL Audio to replace photo-based, back-end documentation with 3D-rendered, animated instructions, automate BOM creation, and integrate QR-code delivery. The result: at least a one-month acceleration to time-to-market, higher-quality documentation, fewer production errors from automated BOMs, and new digital delivery options for customers, dealers, and partners.
