…Terex engineering manager. But most of them don’t have SolidWorks, the 3D CAD software Terex uses. “We spend a lot of time and money traveling onsite or waiting for back-and-forth communications on a 2D PDF via email or FTP,” he adds. After reviewing options for improving its customer collaboration, Terex decided to focus on enabling customers to review and directly comment on 3D models without having to update their internal design tools. Terex selected Vertex, a cloud-based collaboration suite that uses the digital twin concept to create a zero-install software environment for manufacturers and customers to collaborate on design or…

…the 3D market. The first, a free add-in for SolidWorks, promises to provide a design environment optimized for 3D printing multi-material electronics (see video). The software aims to help engineers design complex prototypes—consisting of polymers and metals—that can be 3D printed on the company’s DragonFly Pro printer. The second, called Switch, offers a proprietary pre-processing application that enables operators to prepare printed circuit board designs for 3D printing on Nano Dimension’s printer. On another front, researchers at UTEP have begun to develop software that goes beyond enabling the design of circuits that conform to a surface and opens the door…
