A SolidWorks Case Study
Zygote Media Group, a leading provider of 3D human anatomy content, faced rising demand from medical device manufacturers for licensable, parametric CAD templates of soft-tissue organs such as the heart. To meet requests for anatomically accurate, surfacing-intensive models, Zygote evaluated CAD solutions and chose SolidWorks (using SolidWorks Standard and SolidWorks Professional) for its compatibility and industry prevalence.
By implementing SolidWorks, Zygote accelerated model development and realized a 300% productivity gain, improved its ability to model complex organic shapes, and produced the first anatomically accurate CAD model of the human heart. SolidWorks’ advanced surfacing, ease of use, and broad data compatibility also helped facilitate cardiac product development by Zygote’s customers and streamline the company’s licensing pipeline.
