SolidWorks
SustainabilityXpress
SolidWorks®
SustainabilityXpress considers how
and where materials are produced, parts are
manufactured, and products are used and discarded.
|
|
Benefit:
Instantly understand the environmental impact of your
SolidWorks design in real time.
|
|
| |
Rapid
Dimension for Drawing Detailing
With the new Rapid Dimension tool, a dimension
manipulator appears when dimensions are inserted in
drawing views. The manipulator automatically spaces the
dimensions evenly, saving you time and effort.
|
|
Benefit:
Quickly and easily create manufacturing-ready
drawings.
|
|
| |
Improved
Mirror Components in Assembly
The new MirrorComponent, which is part of the
FeatureManager® design tree, maintains the position of
mirrored components relative to seed components,
simplifying workflow and management.
|
|
Benefit:
Design and manage assemblies faster and with more
flexibility.
|
|
| |
Multibody
Support for Sheet-Metal Parts
SolidWorks 2010 simplifies the creation of complex
sheet-metal designs. This new functionality lets you
incorporate designs that include other sheet-metal or
weldment parts.
|
|
Benefit:
Expand your sheet-metal designs to
incorporate weldments or other sheet-metal parts.
|
|
| |
Mouse
Gesture Heads-Up User Interface
By creating a mouse gesture as a shortcut to
executing a command, SolidWorks 2010 lets you keep your
eye on your design. The customized gestures for
drawings, assemblies, parts, and sketches will let you
think more about your design and less about navigating
your CAD application. |
|
Benefit:
Increase design efficiency by allowing immediate
access to frequently used functionality with just a
slight movement of the mouse.
|
|
| |
Sheet-Metal Export to DXF/DWG Enhancements
The new DXF/DWG PropertyManager exports sheet-metal
files to .dxf or .dwg files, speeding the creation of
files for manufacturing operations. This tool allows you
to confirm and edit what will be contained in the export
file so you can quickly remove unwanted items, such as
bend lines or the edges of countersunk holes.
|
|
Benefit:
Allow real-time verification and editing of what is
being exported and drastically decrease the number of
export steps.
|
|
| |
Configuration Publisher
The Configuration Publisher lets you use rules to
define the configurations of a model. This improves
flexibility and lets you create more configurations on
the fly. Automatically uploading designs to 3D ContentCentral® allows suppliers to quickly share their
product models.
|
|
Benefit:
Create configurations and share them by automatically
uploading your designs to 3D ContentCentral.
|
Use event sequencing to validate your machine’s
operation while gaining greater design and analysis
flexibility.
|
| |
Event-Based Motion Simulation
Now you can create motion simulations based on events
and actions, in addition to time. Actions can be
triggered by the completion of a previous task, by the
activation of a motion sensor, or by time. Event-based
simulations give you greater flexibility, especially in
the early design stage when timings are not known.
|
|
Benefit:
Use event sequencing to validate your machine's
operation while gaining greater design and analysis
flexibility. |
|
| |
Improved Configuration Support in SolidWorks Enterprise
PDM
SolidWorks Enterprise PDM now facilitates revisions of
multiple part numbers within a single file by using
configurations as unique part numbers. Enhance
collaboration and improve efficiency through the
flexible revisioning of configurations.
|
|
Benefit:
More flexible management and collaboration for
configurations.
|
|
| |
3DVIA Composer Support for SolidWorks Configurations
SolidWorks configurations are now supported in 3DVIA
Composer, enabling you to easily repurpose your
SolidWorks data to create content-rich documentation.
|
|
Benefit:
Dramatically
reduce documentation time by repurposing SolidWorks
configurations.
