The Challenge

Southmedic, Inc., a leading manufacturer and distributor of medical instruments, designs, builds, and molds its own components, then assembles them prior to shipping. The company required solid modeling software that could handle a multi-disciplinary approach to research and development. Designers also needed to reduce errors induced by software that was incompatible. Version changes and file-transfer protocols also necessitated a serious evaluation of software to meet the company's design needs.

The Solution

We chose SolidWorks CAD software because it helps us function as a one-stop shop for our customers. Other solutions were difficult to understand and did not allow single-window integration. SolidWorks CAD software and its integration-solutions speed the transition from concept to finished product, which is important for us as a single-source supplier for new and customer products. Using SolidWorks CAD software, we revolutionized oxygen therapy in acute and chronic care markets with delivery of our patented OxyArm product.
