A SolidWorks Case Study
Boston Group, Inc., a long-established maker of retail merchandising displays and power systems, needed to move off 2D CAD to shorten development and fabrication lead times and improve visual presentations for retail customers. To solve this, the company adopted SolidWorks solutions, deploying SOLIDWORKS Standard and SOLIDWORKS Premium design and analysis software to integrate 3D modeling, sheet‑metal design, and photorealistic rendering into its workflow.
Using SolidWorks’ integrated design, simulation and rendering tools — and linking designs to SheetWorks for nesting and direct machine output — Boston Group streamlined its design‑to‑production process and removed manual programming steps. The SolidWorks implementation cut conceptual design cycles by 50%, shortened product delivery times by 25%, reduced sheet‑metal fabrication time by 80%, and eliminated prototyping while enabling manufacturable, photorealistic customer visuals.
