I currently use the 3Dconnexion Keyboard Pro with Numpad, the CadMouse Pro Wireless, and the SpaceMouse Enterprise. Every day, I’m impressed by how these devices support my daily work in Solid Edge. Zooming, rotating, and panning become effortless. The smart customization options, with intelligently assigned buttons, also allow me to work far more efficiently. The build quality is excellent and my wrists truly appreciate it.

The SpaceMouse Enterprise enhances my workflow processes while modelling in CAD. I can navigate and work with tools and functions simultaneously to great effect. Zoom and rotation actions soon become second nature and you really do feel like you are able to hold your model in front of you whilst creating and editing. Overall, I find the 3Dconnexion products an excellent addition to Siemens mechanical design software; NX and Solid Edge, which greatly enhance my productivity and speed up my working processes.

Thanks to using the SpaceMouse and CadMouse, I achieve maximum comfort when working with 3D CAD solutions. Exemplary precision, smooth operation, high ergonomics, as well as the aesthetics and durability of these devices set the highest standard in the industry. 3Dconnexion equipment has become an integral part of my design tasks.
