The country’s best-known custom bike builder is a proving ground for SolidWorks advanced technology.

Orange County Choppers (OCC) of Montgomery, NY, has become a household brand because of its exposure on the Discovery Channel television series "American Chopper." The show’s and the shop’s enormous success helped lead patriarch and boss Paul Teutul Sr. to expand OCC’s custom bike-building business to handle a growing volume of projects.

To do that, among many moves, he hired a young artist named Jason Pohl and charged him with the task of lifting some of the volume off the shoulders of OCC’s main designer, Paul Jr. To help with the growing demand for custom-designed motorcycles, another part of Pohl’s job was figuring out how to manufacture more parts in house.
