solidThinking continues to grow value added reseller community internationally
TROY, Mich/PRNewswire/ -- solidThinking, Inc.
(www.solidthinking.com) continues to expand globally, adding
India-based DesignTech Systems Ltd. (www.designtechsys.com) as its
latest value added reseller (VAR). Known as one of the most
user-centric design/styling software programs for industrial designers
worldwide, solidThinking is now available to DesignTech Systems
customers as part of the company's suite of technology offerings.
DesignTech Systems will promote, sell and support solidThinking to
customers throughout India.
Founded in 1998, Pune-based DesignTech Systems, a leading solutions
provider with operations across India, has driven the development and
application of the latest IT technologies for customers, including
services in design to manufacturing, simulation, software customization
and macro programming.
"Since the founding of DesignTech Systems, we have aimed to provide
our client base with the most enhanced suite of software solutions to
fit their product design and development needs," said Vikas Khanvelkar,
DesignTech System's managing director and a pioneer of CAD/CAM in
India. "We feel solidThinking, with its advanced, yet flexible nature,
is a key tool for the industrial design community, and we are pleased
to add solidThinking to our suite of software solutions."
solidThinking's latest version 7.6 software includes a number of
features focused entirely on the needs of the industrial designer, such
as an updated rendering engine, simultaneous parameter editing and
control-point editing, a streamlined user interface and rich
photorealistic-content functionality. Its advanced construction tree
encourages users to change their minds anytime during the design
process without having to recreate their ideas. solidThinking is not
only the first and only industrial design software of its kind to run
on both the Windows and Mac OS platforms, but it is also compatible
with computer-aided design, manufacturing and engineering (CAD/CAM/CAE)
software, aiding collaboration between industrial designers and
engineers during the crucial development process without limiting them
to traditional constraints.
"This partnership marks an important milestone for solidThinking's
global distribution efforts," said Jim Hassberger, vice president of
business development and customer relations for solidThinking, Inc.
"DesignTech Systems' success and reputation throughout India will prove
beneficial to our growth efforts, and we are equally confident that
solidThinking's offerings will further enhance DesignTech Systems'
product suite."

Italy in 1991, where it has been known as the leading software for
industrial design since 2005. The company's assets were recently
acquired by Altair Engineering, Inc. (www.altair.com), a global
technology, consulting and services provider with a proven track record
in developing sales channels and support expertise to increase
solidThinking's adoption across numerous business sectors and
