3D CAD software company, SolidWorks Corporation, has won a contract with Vermeer Manufacturing to deploy engineering software across Vermeer's seven divisions.

SolidWorks will install 140 seats of software to be used in the design and manufacture of Vermeer's industrial construction and harvesting equipment. The manufacturer is based in Pella, Iowa, with European offices in Goes, Holland.

According to Vermeer, SolidWork's software will enable it to move from 2D to 3D design, allowing employees to fully view and critique products before sending them to production, something the company claims will save both time and money.

Financial details of the deal were not disclosed.
