Challenge	ZAMAK design needed to create realistic 3D renderings of innovative industrial design concepts quickly and easily for presentation to clients, promotion of new concepts, and marketing of products. The firm previously used the Keyshot rendering package but found it inefficient and lacking in quality. They required a solution that was fast, easy to use, and capable of producing high-quality, photorealistic renderings for a variety of projects. Read More
About Customer	ZAMAK design is a leading French industrial design studio driven by the creativity of four experienced designers: Nicolas Michel-Imbert, Florian Foizon, Damien Esclasse, and Arnaud Perez. The team is formally trained in industrial design and brings diverse expertise and multidisciplinary skills to creating innovative solutions for their clients' product development challenges. They work with an established network of partners specializing in engineering, set design, CAD, web development, and consulting to ensure successful project completion. Read More
Solution	ZAMAK design implemented SOLIDWORKS Visualize 3D photorealistic rendering software after evaluating several alternatives, including Maxwell, Octane, Flamingo, and Lumion. They chose SOLIDWORKS Visualize for its balance of quality, speed, and ease of use. The software allows them to quickly change colors, materials, and lighting without losing render quality, significantly shortening design cycles. The easy-to-use interface and linked capabilities make it an invaluable tool for their design process, enabling them to produce high-quality renderings efficiently. Read More Log in to view content
