efiSportsMedicine modernizes the entire gym fitness system with the help of SolidWorks!
efiSports Medicine produces tilt resistance training fitness equipment, including GRAVITY SYSTEM and TotalGym brand rehabilitation training and fitness equipment. Since the establishment of TotalGym, Inc. in 1974, the company has produced tilt resistance training equipment that uses gravity and a person's own weight to perform various exercises. While TotalGym designers are always paying close attention to the role of forming, adapting and developing early systems, management hopes to reshape the company's image as efiSports Medicine and transfer its innovative approach to fitness equipment for growing business clubs and private The gym market has achieved high market share.
“The company initially used only drawing design equipment,†explains senior mechanical engineer Dan McCutcheon. “People develop steel pipes that bend and weld. This is very close to the garage store approach that uses simple techniques to get the job done. The company later imported AutoCAD 2D. Software, but in order for the company to achieve the overall goal of becoming a leading innovator of fitness equipment in the commercial fitness club market, we need to apply 3D technology. We need to use 3D technology to bring the company to a new level, modernize our system and create our present Attractive and stylish fitness equipment is known."
efiSportsMedicine chose SolidWorks CAD software because it is easy to use, with powerful surface tools and advanced visualization capabilities. The company also values ​​the ability to fully integrate design components in 3D software. This not only enables efiSportsMedicine to meet safety specifications, but also shortens manufacturing lead times, reduces prototype costs, and reduces time to market.
Improve aesthetics through complex shapes
With the surface creation capabilities of SolidWorks software, efiSports Medicine is able to use complex and aesthetically pleasing shapes on its systems. This allows the company to move from the traditional TotalGym product line to more modern and attractive products. "SolidWorks allows us to take the necessary improvements to enhance the product." McCutcheon emphasizes, "When it comes to fitness, people want fitness equipment to look good. We can design more fitness from a greater range of curvature and higher levels of automation. The trendy products that stand out from the crowd."
“By using the top-down assembly method in SolidWorks, I can see the available space, evaluate the gaps that need to be handled, and consider the effects of tolerances on the gaps,†he added. “I can move parts around the assembly.†,
Faster time to market and smoother communication
Since implementing SolidWorks software development TotalGym, efiSports Medicine has cut time-to-market by half and reduced the number of prototypes produced from 10 to 1. In addition to increasing productivity, the company continues to develop better, more advanced products. “With SolidWorks, I have increased design speed by at least 50%, which is very obvious when we build molds and make more complex assemblies,†McCutcheon pointed out.
Through RealView's display design visualization capabilities in SolidWorks, McCutcheon can communicate and validate design concepts with management and marketing experts without having to build prototypes. “SolidWorksRealView visualization allows us to fully evaluate the design before building the prototype.†He emphasized: “This is why we can build impressive designs without cost overruns or rework.â€
Entering the market segment of the fitness market
The design created by efiSports Medicine using SolidWorks software helps the company enter the commercial fitness market and quickly enter the studio and club segments. Despite the competitive fitness industry and the high price sensitivity of fitness equipment, the company has established its leadership position. “We need to add features, quality and attractiveness to create an elegant product that can compete in the commercial club market,†McCutcheon said. “Because we decided to use SolidWorks software, we have achieved partial success. Without SolidWorks3D design, we These types of surfaces cannot be efficiently produced, economically produced, or penetrated into this market segment."
