How do manufacturers maintain accuracy and efficiency when every product is customised?

In our latest blog, we explore how David Ltd, a UK‑based trailer manufacturer, uses with to manage complex, custom designs more efficiently, without slowing production.

The blog looks at how design automation helps standardise processes, reduce manual effort, and improve confidence in every order, even in a highly configurable manufacturing environment.

If you’re dealing with repeat variations, engineering bottlenecks, or growing custom demand, this is a practical example of how can support smarter design‑to‑delivery workflows.

If your SOLIDWORKS designs include wiring, then electrical decisions are already affecting your work.

The issue is visibility.
Electrical information is often created separately from the 3D model and updated late, which means problems tend to show up during assembly or prototype.

In this live webinar, we’ll explore where those issues come from and how teams are addressing them earlier by bringing electrical information into their SOLIDWORKS workflow.

This session is suitable for design and mechanical engineers, and small teams where electrical tasks do not sit with a specialist role.

From CAD to the circuit 🏁

We’ve published a new blog following our first race weekend supporting Fish Fabrications and Sam Fish at Snetterton.

Classic touring car racing provides a tough, honest environment for engineering: tight margins, real loads, and no hiding place.

The Alfa Sud delivered two strong races, two trophies, and faultless reliability across the race meeting.
