There is not one, "ultimate" CAD software package. That would explain why some of our clients' engineers and toolmakers use Pro/Engineer, some use Solidworks, and some Unigraphics.

To be able to bring our concepts through to manufacture with our clients we too use all of these programs. In fact, it is essential for us to be extremely proficient with these programs, to prevent the software dictating the design content.

We have over 50 CAD stations of:

Pro/Engineer
Unigraphics
Solidworks
Catia
Alias
Rhinoceros

Every one of our industrial designers is a proficient user of one or more of these software packages.

Part of the efficient process guidelines that TEAMS has developed over the years is to avoid time-consuming CAD systems at the initial stages of a project.

While CAD systems may help visualize complex forms, they can also limit the scope of rapid creativity essential at the start of a project.
