BURLINGTON, MA - Z Corporation today announced it has signed GoEngineer Inc. as its newest reselling partner, charged with promoting Z Corp. 3D printing solutions throughout the Western United States.
Headquartered in Salt Lake City and backed by more than 20 years of experience, GoEngineer serves more than 2,000 US-based customers. The signing is significant because 3D mechanical designs are the most common sources of 3D printing jobs, and GoEngineer is the leading reseller in the Americas of SolidWorks®, a leading developer of 3D mechanical design software for the mainstream market. GoEngineer draws from the collective knowledge of more than 6,000 SolidWorks users.
"In signing with Z Corp., GoEngineer made a strategic decision based upon customer feedback, which indicated that color, speed, high definition and value are crucial factors when selecting a 3D printer," said Ken Coburn, President of GoEngineer. "The functionality of the Z Corp. product line gives our customers access to a flexible Rapid Prototyping solution with great potential benefits to their organizations."
3D printing streamlines the design and engineering processes and turbo charges early sales and marketing efforts. The mainstream adoption of 3D printing is closely tracking the adoption of 3D mechanical design software, and the ability to generate affordable prototypes with a 3D printer is often a decisive factor for companies embracing 3D design for the first time. Meanwhile, Z Corp.'s color capabilities are particularly amenable to the analysis capabilities of SolidWorks' COSMOS® design analysis software. With COSMOS and a Z Corp. color printer, customers for the first time can color-map prototypes according to design analysis output about structural integrity, thermal flow, or other analysis results.
GoEngineer is one of many top SolidWorks authorized resellers in the United States and around the world that have also become Z Corp. authorized resellers, including CADD Edge, and TriMech Solutions in North America; General Faith, Intelligent CAD/CAM Technology, ETC Service Co., and IME in Asia; as well as Emco and PT-Sys in Europe.
"GoEngineer is a strategic partner that embodies Z Corp.'s philosophy of signing formidable channel partners best suited to serving our customers' needs," said John Kawola, Z Corp. Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing. "We look forward to a rewarding partnership that pays dividends for our companies and helps our customers to profit."
