Hi,
Our company is looking into purchasing new solid modeling software. We are still in the very early stages of this process, but in order to eliminate a few choices I wondered if anyone had some ballpark numbers on what we would need to pay for one seat of either Solid Edge, or UniGraphics. I...
Hello,
Our business is looking to purchase a new solid modeling package. I've heard that SW and SE both are very comparable as far as function goes, but is SE close to the approximate $5,000-$6,000 that I can expect to spend on one seat of SW?
Thanks,
Zack
Hello,
Our business is looking into maybe purchasing one seat of SolidWorks. Does anyone have a rough idea of how much this will cost? There is also a yearly licensing fee, correct? I have been looking on different software websites and can't come up with an approximate figure on this. I'm...
Bradley,
You say the cost of SolidWorks is low. Approximately how much can our business expect to pay for one SolidWorks workstation? I'm assuming this can be installed on one of our already existing PC's. (Pretty sure it meets the requirements of most modeling softwares) There is also a yearly...
Dear ManDrake22 & Julian,
ManDrake - You say you've worked with Hoffman enclosures. Are their 3-d models able to be edited in a variety of programs or must a company have SolidWorks to modify these products? Do you know what sort of software package those companies are using?

Dear Ben,
Thanks for your swift response. We manufacture enclosures. These boxes have a lid, a couple hinges, 4 threaded inserts, a couple latches, maybe a few cover screws and a base. That's it.
We manufacture these in-hous--yes. But we already have a sufficient prgm. for our CNC machine. I was...
Hi,
I am looking into transferring all our 2-d CAD drawings to 3-d models. These models will be used to show the customers better views of our products and maybe incorporating our CNC machining into this all at once. We are looking into a new solid modeling program to use for this, but we need...
Hi,
I am currently working on modeling all our products in the 3-d state. We manufacture boxes. I want to know if once these 3-d models are created on MechDesktop they can then be viewed as 2-d dimensional drawings quickly and easily. Is MechDesktop the software that I want for a task like this...
Hi,
I am currently looking into converting all our 2-d CAD drawings of our products to 3-d to help customers view the product. We are basically looking for a simple, easy-to-use software package that will be able to be used to show products in 3-d and also separate into 2-d dimensional drawings...
Hello,
I currently am working on a project for our enclosure manufacturing plant where we are looking to model all our standard enclosures in 3-d. We have a seat of Mechanical Desktop, but I've heard good things about Solidworks. Will the files we create be viewable by someone with an AutoCad...
