Case Study: VIG MAKINA achieves twice-as-fast manufacturing with SolidWorks

One of the globally selected aluminum plant manufacturers of the world VIG MAKINA now manufactures two times faster thanks to SolidWorks

Vig Makina, a leading Turkish manufacturer and exporter of aluminum plant equipment, needed to revise complex, heavy machine parts rapidly while reducing long design cycles, high scrap rates and costly prototypes. To tackle this challenge the company adopted SolidWorks, deploying SolidWorks 3D software (two Simulation users, two SolidWorks Premium users and one Professional user).

By implementing SolidWorks—in particular SolidWorks Simulation—Vig Makina halved its design cycle time, cut design scrap by 70%, reduced product development costs by 30% and prototype costs by 35%, and shortened project/design offer times by 40%. SolidWorks enabled faster design reuse, fewer physical prototypes and improved customer satisfaction, reinforcing Vig Makina’s industry leadership.
