“To model an impeller manually took a couple of days previously. With iLogic it takes about 15 minutes.”
– Alex Curtin, Product Manager, FS-Elliott
-
“We’ve shown our internal departments that they can create a new model in two hours instead of three weeks.”
— Lune Riezebos, Application Specialist in Service Delivery, GEA
-
“Inventor is helpful because races in our league can be decided by thousandths of a second.”
— Scott Finnis, CNC Shop Manager, Kalitta Motorsports
