Geometric DFMPro Gets SolidWorks 'Solution Partner' Status
MUMBAI,
India, June 5, 2008 - Geometric Limited (BSE: 532312, NSE: GEOMETRIC), a
leader in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions and technologies,
today announced that their revolutionary Design for Manufacturability (DFM)
product, DFMPro has achieved ‘Solution Partner’ status from SolidWorks
Corporation. Fully integrated with SolidWorks 3D CAD, DFMPro facilitates
upstream manufacturability validation and identification of design areas
that are difficult, expensive or impossible to manufacture.
Commenting on the new partner product status, Ms. Efrat Ravid, Director
of Marketing and Alliances at SolidWorks said “DFMPro is a unique add-in
within SolidWorks that checks manufacturability issues right at the design
stage. Since it is fully integrated within SolidWorks, it can be effectively
used by our customers to reduce overall product development costs”.
Dr. Vinay Kulkarni, COO – Desktop Products & Technologies, Geometric
Limited said, “This recognition from SolidWorks Corp. reflects our
commitment to customers to ensure greater efficiencies in product
realization. DFMPro is our niche offering in the DFM space, which helps to
get designs right the first time.”
Used at the designing stage, this tool allows quick and in-depth
examination of product manufacturability. DFMPro performs rule based checks
which can predict manufacturing problems early in the designing stage. It
considerably reduces the design review steps, thereby pushing new products
into the manufacturing stage swiftly.
DFMXpress, a lighter version of DFMPro is shipped with every seat of
SolidWorks 2008. Geometric recently announced the launch of DFMPro 2008 EX,
the latest release of DFMPro, which permits organizations to build their own
custom rule libraries easily and quickly. A limited period trial version of
DFMPro 2008 EX is available at
