SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD
SOLIDWORKS® 3D CAD solutions provide easy-to-learn, yet extremely powerful functionality that shortens product development time, reduces costs, and improves quality.
Main Features of Solidworks CAD
SOLIDWORKS MBD (Model Based Definition Standard)
Define, organize, and publish 3D annotations, including 3D model data in industry-standard file formats.
SOLIDWORKS® Model-Based Definition (MBD) lets you define and organize 3D dimensions, tolerances, datums, notes, Bills of Material (BOMs), and other annotations; customize publishing templates for manufacturing, such as Part or Assembly Specifications and Incoming Inspection Reports.
SOLIDWORKS CAM
SOLIDWORKS® CAM – powered by CAMWorks – uses rules-based technology that enables you to integrate design and manufacturing in one application, connecting design and manufacturing teams through a common software tool and 3D model.
SOLIDWORKS CAM is an add-on to all versions of SOLIDWORKS CAD that lets you prepare your designs for manufacturability earlier in the development cycle. The additional features include High-Speed Machining (HSM), configurations, assembly machining, turning, and 3+2 programming to drive four- and five-axis machines
SOLIDWORKS Visualize
Quickly and easily create professional, photo-quality images, animations, and other interactive 3D content to get your products to market faster.
SOLIDWORKS® Visualize allows you to leverage your 3D CAD data to create photo-quality content in the fastest and easiest way you can–from images to animations, interactive web content, and immersive Virtual Reality. Bring your products to life. SOLIDWORKS Visualize is the “camera” for your CAD data!
A seat of SOLIDWORKS Visualize Standard is included with each seat of SOLIDWORKS Professional and Premium on active Subscription.
SOLIDWORKS Composer
Easily repurpose existing 3D models to rapidly create and update high-quality graphical assets that are fully associated with your 3D design.
Repurpose your 3D engineering models for creating graphical content to explain processes and procedures in technical communications, such as manufacturing assembly instructions, product manuals, installation instructions, service manuals, training guides, marketing brochures, and sales bidding kits.
SOLIDWORKS Inspection
Reduce the time needed to create inspection documentation, helping to eliminate input errors, improve quality, and reduce time to market.
The SOLIDWORKS® Inspection add-in automates the ballooning of engineering drawings and 3D files with Product and Manufacturing Information (PMI).
SOLIDWORKS Simulation
Subject your designs to real world conditions to raise product quality while reducing prototyping and physical testing costs.
SOLIDWORKS® Simulation is an easy-to-use portfolio of structural analysis tools that use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to predict a product’s real-world physical behavior by virtually testing CAD models. The portfolio provides linear, non-linear static and dynamic analysis capabilities.
Key Features
SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation
Simulate the fluid flow, heat transfer, and fluid forces that are critical to the success of your designs.
SOLIDWORKS® Flow Simulation is an intuitive Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solution embedded within SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD that enables you to quickly and easily simulate liquid and gas flows through and around your designs to calculate product performance and capabilities.
Key Features
SOLIDWORKS Plastics
Predict and avoid manufacturing defects in plastic part and injection mold designs, eliminating costly rework, improving part quality, and decreasing time to market.
SOLIDWORKS® Plastics delivers easy-to-use simulation for analyzing plastic parts and injection molds. It simulates how melted plastic flows during the injection molding process to predict manufacturing-related defects so you can quickly evaluate part manufacturability while you design.
