When Solidworks was launched more than 20 years ago it brought 3D CAD software to every engineer’s desktop, and now Solidworks CAM has the potential to do the same for manufacturing. Where Solidworks CAM is different is in its potential to bring CAM to every desktop. “CAM has been around for a while, it’s not new, but it has been complicated, and there have been multiple software packages available from different companies. ![]() Over the years, we have worked in different lifecycles of the products for our clients and we have experience working in engineering as well as manufacturing.” What is different about Solidworks CAM? We are driven by the software more than the industry and our work tends to be driven by companies that use Solidworks and the engineering and drafting services that they need. Broadly we work in the oil and gas industry, the piping industry and the automobile industry, etc. We work with a variety of companies and industries. ![]() “Indovance has been in business for over 14 years now and we work with a variety of customers, across the world, although our focus is the US, and we support Solidworks as a platform for CAD services, but we also support other software. It was there that I saw the market opportunity for computer-aided design (CAD) outsourcing services and that is when I founded Indovance.” What has your experience been of using computer-aided design and manufacturing processes? While there I helped to develop the Solidworks software in multiple areas specifically in drawings and parts and assemblies. “After studying a master’s of science at North Carolina State University in the US, where my focus was on computer-aided design and manufacturing, I went on to work for Solidworks and was part of Solidworks R&D for a number of years. ![]() Ahead of the platform’s release, E&T spoke to Sandesh Joshi, CEO and co-founder of US-based computer-aided design outsourcers Indovance, about what this could mean for the manufacturing industry.
