Accelerate Machine Design in the Cloud

Speed up design cycles with cloud CAD

Engineered for Speed, Built for Teams

Engineered for fast-paced design, Onshape helps teams stay in sync, reduce rework, and deliver better machines – on time and on budget.

Designing Smarter Machines with Onshape

Flexible Modular Design Made Simple

Onshape simplifies modular design with powerful configuration tools and in-context editing. GKS Packaging uses it to build machines that are easy to adapt and maintain – cutting down lead times and streamlining customization. Swap modules, reuse subsystems, and preserve design intent without worrying about broken references or rework.

Real-Time Collaboration with Built-In PDM

Onshape lets your entire team work on the same machine design at once – no file locking, no overwrites, and no delays. Every edit is tracked automatically, so you always know who changed what and when. Teams like Norden and GKS Packaging rely on this to move faster and eliminate costly version errors.

Work From Anywhere, Review Instantly.

Design reviews shouldn’t be delayed by geography or device access. With Onshape, your team can view, edit, and comment on designs from anywhere – on any device, even a phone or tablet. Norden’s engineers review machine designs with customers in real time, speeding up feedback loops and keeping every project on track,

Empowering Teams Beyond Engineering

AEInc. slashes engineering time by empowering sales reps to generate complex spiral chute designs with just a few inputs —no CAD expertise required. With Onshape’s cloud platform and custom automation, new team members get up to speed fast, freeing engineers to focus on higher-value work.

No IT Burden, Just Engineering Freedom

Onshape runs entirely in the cloud, so you can forget about managing servers, licenses, and local installations. GKS Packaging avoids downtime and costly IT overhead while giving engineers uninterrupted access to design data. Updates happen automatically, keeping your team focused on innovation – not system maintenance or troubleshooting.
