Configure, design, sell, and manufacture custom industrial components faster
DriveWorks is used by industrial components manufacturers in countries all over the world. DriveWorks design automation, 3D product configurator, and CPQ solutions enable manufacturers to automate complex engineering design tasks, maintain quality standards, and deliver customized products quickly.
Reducing design time and improving customer experience with DriveWorks
The challenge
Hangzhou Spring Co., based in China, specialize in the design, production, and service of springs. Their main product lines include valve and hydraulic springs. The organization is growing rapidly and needed to standardize their processes to help meet customer demand.
The solution
Hangzhou Spring Co.’s experienced engineers transferred their product knowledge into their DriveWorks configurator to automate design processes and reduce repetitive workload. Automation has increased throughput without the need for additional skilled engineers. Reduced errors have also improved business efficiency.
Hangzhou Spring Co. use DriveWorks to configure springs to meet customer requirements. The configurator enables engineers to review and approve drawings, which can then be sent directly to the customer.
Added benefits
DriveWorks has enabled quicker turnaround times and streamlined processes, improving the customer experience for Hangzhou Spring Co. Before using DriveWorks, manually designing a spring took 30 minutes, this has now been reduced to just 5 minutes.
Reducing the manual design workload means Hangzhou Spring Co. can respond to more customers with the same number of engineers.
It’s quick to get started, easy to learn, and gives a sense of accomplishment.

How DriveWorks makes a difference for other industrial components manufacturers
Industrial component manufacturers produce highly customized items. Products such as valves, pumps, motors, and enclosures often vary in size, material, performance, compliance requirements, and pricing. Complex configurations don’t fit easily into traditional manufacturing processes originally set up for off-the-shelf products. This can lead to bottlenecks and delays in design, quote, and sales cycles.
DriveWorks design automation, 3D product configurator, and CPQ solutions enable industrial component manufacturers to automate complex engineering design tasks, shorten sales cycles, improve accuracy, and optimize pricing.
