CADspace to Sell SolidWorks in Australia
Sydney-based CAD/CAM/CAE software specialist, CADspace, has been named as the newest reseller to provide the Australian market place with Dassault Systemes Solidworks software products.
CADspace is a privately owned Australian company and its team members have technical backgrounds in engineering, manufacturing and industrial design. They have been working in the constantly changing world of CAD/CAM software technology for over two decades during which time they have exclusively provided other international software products.
"CADspace is delighted to have been chosen by Solidworks to represent them in Australia. It is not often that they decide to nominate a new reseller. There have been two resellers for some time now. You could call us a '20 year overnight success'. We have customers in mechanical design, engineering services, manufacturing and tool making across many industries including automotive, aerospace, agriculture, energy, marine, motor sport and transport", says company Founder and Managing Director, Steve Thomas.
"At CADspace we have a comprehensive understanding of Design To Manufacture (D2M) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) for all of these industries. We provide them a competitive advantage to help them grow both locally and in the global market place." Mr Thomas says the company is very targeted about the people it wants to help. It has located its office close to the industrial heartland of Sydney and will be focusing on Greater Western Sydney, "We are passionate about helping Australian companies involved in product design, engineering services and manufacturing to be as competitive and as profitable as possible. We believe that these industries can become sought after as high-level innovators and developers by the biggest names in the Global Village. We are on a mission to empower businesses with a combination of world-leading efficient technology plus comprehensive support and training, with invaluable know-how developed from 25 years of industry experience. We seek to become a valued Technical Support Partner to these companies now and into the future.
CADspace is selling and supporting SolidWorks Professional (which increases 3D design productivity with file management tools, automated cost estimation, eDrawings®, automated design and drawing checking, a sophisticated parts library and advanced photo realistic rendering), SolidWorks Premium (a powerful 3D design solution which adds simulation, design validation, reverse engineering, advanced wire and pipe routing and ECAD/MCAD collaboration to the capabilities of SolidWorks Professional), SolidWorks Simulation and SolidWorks Enterprise PDM.
The SolidWorks story began in 1993 when they developed the first 3D CAD technology that ran on the Windows platform and within months of the first release of SolidWorks® software it was winning accolades for ease-of-use, allowing engineers more than ever before to bring their product designs to life. Today, DS SolidWorks offers a complete toolset to create, simulate, publish and manage data, maximising the innovation and productivity of your engineering resources.
SolidWorks provides a single seamless environment in which to conceptualise, design, analyse, test, prototype and produce new ideas more cost-effectively. Mr Thomas says that in addition to the Solidworks technology, CADspace offers a full gamut of services including a dedicated support engineer, tailored support service, on-site training and online webinar training. He adds that their customers will also benefit from the company's valuable belief system, "We live and work by an ethos we call the CADspace Commitment. Every action, every decision, every conversation is influenced by our core values. They are the foundation stones of who we are as individuals as well as what the business is as a whole. We make a point of listening to what our clients need, rather than telling them that we've got. We are accountable for our actions, we communicate clearly and openly, we strive each day for excellence as we raise the bar to achieve 100% success, we have honesty in all of our dealings."
