AP Racing design high performance clutch and brake assemblies for many high profile customers, such as Formula 1 racing teams, and hence excellence in design is key to their success.
In fact, the value of NT CADCAM and SolidWorks has proved itself so much to Radical Motorsport that Radical have now invested in their own system from NT CADCAM, which is already delivering significant benefits.
“SolidWorks 3D design has been vital in helping speed up the design and pattern-making process of the complicated engine castings. Having worked with NT CADCAM you know you always have their support to take on tasks and complete them quickly and efficiently.
NTCADCAM has offered our Extrusion development department at Maesteg an efficient and friendly support service. Ensuring both our CAD and CAM software products work together, allowing for a smooth transition between tool design and manufacture.
"We bought SolidWorks because its functionality was far greater than any competitor pound for pound. In fact regularly one of the designers will find a trick that allows us to do something even faster.
"We have moved into SolidWorks slowly and are now starting to realise what it gives us. It saves us allot of time and reduces the errors. We can now produce much better manuals, but the best thing has been that we can now show a customer a product before we make it.
