3D rendering transforms imagination in to something tangible. It gives form to ideas, depth to designs, and vision to marketing. By integrating 3D rendering into the product development pipeline—and leveraging the capabilities of platforms like SOLIDWORKS—designers can move from sketch to screen with confidence and precision.
Investing in solidworks training equips teams and individuals with the technical skills to harness the full potential of rendering. Whether you're presenting a concept to stakeholders or preparing a product for market, rendering ensures your design is seen—and understood—in the best possible light.
Prototyping and Testing
With CAD files in hand, physical prototypes are built. Depending on the product, these could be:
3D printed parts
CNC-machined components
Electronics mock-ups
Fully functional pre-production units
These prototypes are used to validate usability, test ergonomics, identify design flaws, and refine manufacturing methods. Multiple iterations may be required to get everything just right.
6. Design for Manufacture (DFM)
One of the biggest challenges in product development is ensuring that a beautiful design can be efficiently and affordably manufactured at scale. Agencies guide clients through:
Selecting materials and finishes
Choosing manufacturing processes (injection molding, die casting, etc.)
Optimizing parts for tooling and assembly
Cost engineering and supplier sourcing
