BigBelly Solar

Using SolidWorks software, BigBelly Solar was able to reduce material costs while improving product quality.

The Challenge


BigBelly Solar designs and manufactures innovative solar-powered trash compaction systems that lower fuel costs and carbon emissions by reducing garbage truck pickups and trips. Selecting an efficient 3D CAD platform for developing the BigBelly system was an important consideration for the startup company, in order to build and satisfy the needs of a new market.

The Solution


The company chose SolidWorks CAD software because of its ease of use and widespread popularity among design and manufacturing partners. BigBelly Solar also valued the software’s visualization, sheet-metal design, and integrated analysis capabilities. By implementing SolidWorks software, BigBelly Solar developed the world’s first solar-powered trash compactor; increased its sales 300 percent following product redesign; cut its material costs by using 30 percent fewer steel parts; and improved its design quality and control.

Success Metric


  • Developed the world’s first solar-powered trash compactor

  • Increased sales 300 percent following product redesign

  • Cut material costs by using 30 percent fewer steel parts

  • Improved design quality and control

Random Research, Inc.

Random Research used SolidWorks to develop a lightweight, all-wheel-drive racecar, which included innovations that are now being applied to electric vehicles.

The Challenge


Random Research, Inc., is a design consulting firm that is on the leading edge of next-generation electric automobile development. When company President Dennis Palatov founded Random Research in 1995, he needed a 3D CAD program that could support the random and varied nature of the product development, industrial design, and engineering consulting work that has become his firm’s trademark.

The Solution


The company chose SolidWorks software because it is intuitive, easy to use, and provides a breadth of design capabilities, including large assembly, sheet-metal design, and mold development tools. By deploying SolidWorks, Random Research created a lightweight, all-wheel-drive racecar for less than $150,000; developed automotive chassis and drive-train innovations; minimized prototyping and production costs; and established a foundation for developing next-generation electric vehicles.

Success Metric


  • Created a lightweight, all-wheel-drive racecar for less than $150,000

  • Developed automotive chassis and drive-train innovations

  • Minimized prototyping and production costs

  • Established a foundation for developing next-generation electric vehicles
