SolidWorks gives you
choice of 3D CAD, Design Validation, Product Data
Management software as well as Product Documentation
software. No matter what size your business is, you
can have the tools exactly you need to design better
products.
SolidWorks Premium
software integrates a broad range of mechanical CAD,
design validation, product data management, design
communication, and CAD productivity tools in a
single, affordable easy to use package.
Go from concept to
virtual prototype faster than you ever thought
possible with the desired quality using a single
easy to use application. SolidWorks Premium is so
complete, you can progress from a product concept to
a highly accurate virtual prototype without
employing any other software
Featured SolidWorks Premium
capabilities
Getting Started.
Get up to speed fast. SolidWorks Command Manager
logically groups similar functions for easy
access, and integrated tutorials provide workflow
demonstrations along with visual cues.
SWIFT™ (SolidWorks
Intelligent Feature Technology). SWIFT let
you spend time creating products that work well,
instead of trying to make your software work for
you. It automates time-consuming detail work and
techniques, diagnosing and resolving problems
related to feature order, mates, sketch
relationships, and the application of dimensions
User Interface.
With the heads-up user interface, you get a
complete, customizable set of visual display and
mouse-driven control capabilities. This reduces
design steps, minimizes dialog boxes, and decreases
visual clutter.
Working with DWG
Files. SolidWorks includes data translation
tools for AutoCAD® users, along with help
documentation, so you can smoothly convert DWG files
into 3D models.
Part Modeling.
With Instant3D, you have the fastest, easiest way to
create and modify 3D part geometry. By simply
clicking and dragging, you can precisely create and
resize features–even section entities. As you ready
your design for production, use DimXpert to create
accurate 2D drawings (or “drawingless” data) to
ensure your parts will fit when manufactured.
RealView® Graphics.
Visualize and communicate your designs more clearly
than ever. You can quickly create nearly lifelike,
fully dynamic representations of your parts,
assemblies, and completed products–without
rendering.
Advanced Surfacing
and Complex Shapes. Improve the aesthetics,
ergonomics, and usability of your product designs.
Using the Freeform feature, creating new geometry,
or importing and manipulating new surfaces, is easy
and intuitive.
Sheet Metal Design
Tools. Create sheet metal parts from scratch
using folds, bends, flanges, rips, tabs, and mitres,
as well as lofted bends, sketched bends, hems, and
more. Alternatively, you can create a solid shape as
a starting point. Advanced capabilities, such as the
“convert solid to sheetmetal” functionality, let you
develop a manufacturable sheet metal part.
Weldment Design.
Sketch a layout for your frame and select a weldment
profile. SolidWorks will automatically generate a
weldment design in 3D. Modify, validate, and
reinforce your design, and then enhance it with
standard parts that you can drag and drop from the
Design Library or 3D ContentCentral®. Then, generate
precise manufacturing drawings with cut lengths for
all segments.
Mold Design Tools.
With SolidWorks, you can import part geometry in
IGES, STEP, Parasolid®, ACIS®, and other formats to
begin your mold designs. Create, validate, and
execute your mold designs–and reduce manufacturing
errors–with a complete range of tools and checks,
speeding the design of cores and cavities, assembly
features, and lip and groove features.
Assembly Modeling.
SolidWorks gives you the tools to get it right
on-screen when you create assemblies, saving you the
time and cost of physical prototyping and
remanufacturing. You can mate components by picking
individual surfaces, edges, curves, and vertices;
create mechanical relationships between components;
conduct interference, collision, and hole alignment
checks; and link the motion of pulleys and
sprockets. You can also automatically assemble
fasteners and accompanying hardware; automate the
assembly of commonly used components, appropriate
hardware, and required features; and use MateXpert
to fix conflicts such as over-constraining a
component.
Simulate Assembly
Motion. Simply by clicking and dragging
components, you can check an assembly for proper
motion and collisions. In addition, you can simulate
physical motion involving assembly mates, contact,
springs, and gravity. SolidWorks Motion also
provides accurate measurements of velocity,
accelerations, and forces on components due to
motion – so you have a realistic understanding of
design decisions before producing the prototype
product.
Large Assembly
Management Tools. Use “Lightweight” mode to
reduce the time spent opening and working on large
assemblies. SpeedPak technology enables you to
create simplified versions of assemblies that speed
assembly operations and drawing creation. Use Quick
View to select and open just the component you need
to work on, and use the Assembly Xpert to analyze
and improve your assembly’s performance.
Data Translation.
Easily import and use existing data, as well as data
from external sources. SolidWorks includes
translators that support DWG, DXF™, Pro/ENGINEER®,
IPT (Autodesk Inventor®), Mechanical Desktop®,
Unigraphics®, PAR (Solid Edge®), CADKEY®, IGES,
STEP, Parasolid, SAT (ACIS), VDA-FS, VRML, STL,
TIFF, JPG, Adobe® Illustrator®, Rhinocerous®, IDF,
and HSF (Hoops) formats.
Standard Hardware
Libraries. With SolidWorks Toolbox, SolidWorks
Design ClipArt, and 3D ContentCentral, you have
instant access to virtual encyclopedias comprising
thousands of standard components.
