Creating rich 3D content with SolidWorks Composer

Technology Category	Application Infrastructure & Middleware - Data Exchange & Integration Application Infrastructure & Middleware - Data Visualization Functional Applications - Product Lifecycle Management Systems (PLM)
Applicable Industries	Aerospace
Applicable Functions	Product Research & Development Sales & Marketing
Use Cases	Digital Twin
Services	Software Design & Engineering Services System Integration
Challenge	3DMP faced the challenge of providing customers with realistic 3D and interactive content in their marketing deliverables. Traditional methods of creating 3D content were time-consuming and often lacked the ability to develop additional features. The company needed a solution that could handle very large and complex models, allowing them to create accurate and interactive 3D representations of products. This was crucial for meeting the growing demand for product-focused communication and realistic 3D representations. Read More
About Customer	3DMP (3D Marketing & Production) is a recently formed company in France specializing in multimedia and audiovisual tools. As part of Master Image, which focuses on corporate branding and creating documentaries, publicity for television, and corporate films, 3DMP provides services to marketing and communication teams of companies needing expertise in 3D digital imaging and animations. Their clients include major aeronautic companies such as Airbus, Snecma (Safran Group), and CFM International. The company aims to depict a customer’s product as realistically as possible in terms of graphics, aesthetics, and content, adding significant value by providing presentations or animations that closely imitate the actual product.

Solution	To address the challenge, 3DMP implemented SolidWorks Composer to create content for both interactive and paper-based documentation. SolidWorks Composer allows 3DMP to derive 3D content directly from the product's 3D model, significantly reducing the time required to transfer complex models. The software's authoring tools and development support from Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corporation were key factors in their decision. Additionally, SolidWorks Composer Player Pro enables 3DMP designers to create robust and highly customized 3D interactive applications, which can be manipulated in real-time during live presentations. This capability allows 3DMP to work with entire large models, such as airplane engines, without needing to break them down beforehand, thus streamlining the content creation process.
