Why Manufacturers Are Switching to SOLIDWORKS Simulation

Have recent changes with your simulation provider left you wondering what’s next? You’re not alone. Many companies are facing rising costs, complex licensing models, and limited flexibility, forcing engineering teams to seek alternatives that deliver both performance and value.


That’s where SOLIDWORKS Simulation, powered by the 3DEXPERIENCE Works portfolio, comes in. Designed to be cost-effective, easy to use, and cloud-enabled, these solutions enable manufacturers to evaluate designs, mitigate risk, and enhance product performance without straining their budgets.


Why Make the Switch?

  • Affordable Innovation – Reduce costs while accessing cutting-edge, proven tools.

  • Easy to Learn – Get your team up and running quickly with intuitive software.

  • Comprehensive Tools – Evaluate designs, enhance reliability, and improve collaboration.

  • Predictable Costs – Pricing linked to the consumer price index ensures transparency and control.


Real-World Example: Resemin’s Journey

One company that made the switch is Resemin, the third-largest global manufacturer of underground mining drilling equipment. Facing the challenge of extending machine life and boosting performance, Resemin needed advanced simulation tools that could integrate seamlessly with their existing SOLIDWORKS environment.

After benchmarking Ansys against the Durability Performance Engineer role from the SIMULIA brand within the 3DEXPERIENCE Works portfolio, Resemin found that both tools produced accurate results, but SOLIDWORKS’ cloud-based solution was faster, easier to set up, and more cost-effective.

Key Results from Resemin’s Adoption:

  • Reduced time to market by 10%

  • Shortened nonlinear analysis times by 3 hours using cloud simulation

  • Doubled product development throughput and expanded product lines

  • Extended equipment durability improves customer confidence


As Engineering Manager, Fernando Díaz put it:

“With the capability we’ve gained with Durability Performance Engineer, we are both improving the performance of our existing designs as well as increasing innovation in the design of new products. Working with Dassault Systèmes solutions, we’ve expanded our product line and doubled throughput from 60 to 115 machines each year.”
