ExactFlat for SolidWorks® sets a new benchmark for productivity improvement, helping customers get more done, in less time, with lower effort.

ExactFlat Design Studio for the Automotive Industry

Toronto, Ontario (January 28, 2013) - The ExactFlat suite of software is designed for manufacturers working with fabrics and technical textiles. ExactFlat Design Studio for SolidWorks® - their newest product - is the first product to integrate the five essential steps of product development (design, flatten, pattern, nest, cost and document) inside a leading 3D CAD package.

Ohio Valley Industrial Services manufacturers insulation covers for turbines and other industrial applications. Their customers typically require custom designs within very specific delivery periods. After 10 years of looking for a solution that met the needs of their customers, they found and started using ExactFlat to position their business for growth.

“All we need is a CAD file and we can turn-around a complex project within 1 day if necessary. This used to take us (and our competitors) weeks,” commented Joel Kaminski, Vice President at Ohio Valley. “We no longer need to travel to the customer to get measurements and we now have a predictable process for product delivery and costs. As a result, we now have the confidence to go after projects anywhere in the world and know that we can deliver faster and better than our competitors.”

“No one else can do this”, states Steven McLendon, EVP of ExactFlat. “By leveraging the power of a leading CAD platform like SolidWorks®, and extending its capabilities to automate repetitive tasks, reduce manual processes and eliminate duplicate effort, innovative manufacturers like Ohio Valley are growing their businesses by getting 100% of the result with just 15% of the effort.”

After seven years of development and consulting with over 150 companies that work with industrial fabrics, ExactFlat are leading a shift from manual to automated processes in the development of sewn products. Leading manufacturers in automotive, marine, industrial and furniture have integrated ExactFlat into their product development workflow to dramatically improve their productivity. At SolidWorks® World 2013, ExactFlat will be demonstrating their product suite for industry leaders.
