Allows for the creation of individual 3D parts and combining them into assemblies to test fit, function, run motion studies and interference detection before manufacturing. SolidWorks also has its own Toolbox Add-in that enables importing COTS items directly from suppliers.
SolidWorks' seamless integration with Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) software enhances fabrication efficiency. This streamlines the transition from design to fabrication, generating tool paths and manufacturing data directly from yourSolidWorks model.
FEA gives us the ability to test designs virtually to find weak points and predict performance before building prototypes. This saves time and cost, helps optimize materials, and ensures products are safe, reliable, and meet necessary safety factors.
Motion study allows us to simulate real-world movement of assemblies, making it easier to confirm that mechanisms function smoothly, parts have proper clearances, and designs perform as intended.
Interference detection automatically checks and detects whether parts overlap or collide in an assembly, ensuring components fit together correctly before manufacturing.
SolidWorks excels in sheet metal design, providing specialized tools for creating and unfolding sheet metal parts. It is essential for fabricating components like enclosures and panels, ensuring precision in complex sheet metal projects.
3D models achieve superior visualization which provides clients and teams with interactive, detailed representations that enhance understanding and decision-making, ensuring success in your design outcomes.
