3D CAD DESIGN
Part and Assembly Modeling
Handle all aspects of your part and assembly modeling and
transform ideas and concepts into virtual 3D models.
ImageImageImage
2D Design
Create production-ready 2D drawings that are always current
and clearly communicate how to manufacture and assemble
your designs.
ImageImageImage
Productivity Tools
Easily analyse, compare, check and report on your designs.
ImageImageImage
Design Reuse and Automation
Simplify the reuse of existing design data with search,
automation and configuration tools that help you speed up the
creation of new designs.
ImageImageImage
Interference Check
Before going into production, verify in 2D and 3D that your parts
and assemblies will fit, assemble and operate correctly.
ImageImageImage
Manufacturability Checks
Review your designs for Draft, Undercut, Thickness and Hole
Alignments early in the development process to ensure
manufacturability.
ImageImageImage
Advanced CAD File Import/Export
Convert incoming CAD data into SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD format
and export SOLIDWORKS data to other CAD applications using
30+ translators.
ImageImageImage
Xtended Reality (XR) Exporter
Export CAD data for AR, VR and web viewing experiences while
retaining geometry, appearance, motion studies, display states
and more.
ImageImageImage
CAD Standards Checking (Design Checker)
Establish design standards and check drawings
(or models) against them to create uniform designs
and documentation.
ImageImage
Automated Tolerance Stackup Analysis (TolAnalyst™)
Automatically check the effects of tolerances on parts and
assemblies to ensure consistent fit of components and verify
tolerancing schemes before manufacturing your designs.
ImageImage
Design for Cost (SOLIDWORKS Costing)
Continuously check your designs against cost targets with
automatic cost estimation tools fully integrated within the 3D
CAD solution.
ImageImage
Reverse Engineering (ScanTo3D)
Recreate designs with the ability to import, edit, evaluate and
create solid geometry from scanned point-cloud and mesh data.
ImageImage
Advanced Photorealistic Rendering
Easily create photographic-quality images from your 3D models
early in the design process to get feedback and make informed
design decisions.
ImageImage
Advanced Surface Flattening
Flatten complex, nondevelopable surfaces typically encountered
in products made from textiles, like clothing, or sheet metal, like
metal stampings.
Image
Pipe and Tube Routing
Simplify the design and documentation of piping and tubing for
a wide range of systems and applications, including machinery,
skid systems and process plant piping.
Image
Electrical Cable and Wiring Harness Routing
Quickly add cables, wires and harnesses to your design. Create
flattened drawing representations of your 3D cables and
harnesses with wire lists, connection information and bills of
materials.
Image
Rectangular and Other Section Routing
Route rectangular and round sections that include ducting, cable
trays, conveyors, material handling chutes and other systems.
Image
SIMULATION
Time-Based Motion Analysis
Realistically visualize your product moving throughout its
operational cycle world, measure the forces and loads on your
design, and use the data to correctly size motors and ensure
product performance, quality and safety.
Image
Linear Static Analysis for Parts and Assemblies
Calculate the stresses and deformations of geometry using Finite
Element Analysis (FEA) methods, and running linear stress
analysis to determine the response of parts and assemblies.
Image
PARAMETRIC MODELING IN THE CLOUD
Parametric Modeling in the Cloud
Create, review and evaluate 3D models through an intuitive
parametric modeling solution that interacts seamlessly with the
3D CAD solution.
ImageImageImage
SUBDIVISION MODELING IN THE CLOUD
Subdivision Modeling in the Cloud
Create organic shapes quickly and easily with an intuitive
modeling solution that interacts seamlessly with the 3D CAD
solution.
ImageImageImage
DATA MANAGEMENT AND COLLABORATION IN THE CLOUD
Data Access and Management in the Cloud
Store, share, access and manage the latest product design
information from a centralised, secure location.
ImageImageImage
Product Lifecycle Management in the Cloud
Manage the lifecycle of any type of content, such as CAD files,
simulation models and documentation, across disciplines and
CAD solutions. Track issues, changes and routes, and reduce
conflicting edits from multiple contributors with revision control.
ImageImageImage
Collaboration in the Cloud
Collaborate in real time using configurable dashboards, social
communities, Kanban-style task management, activity streams,
persistent chat and video calls. Easily search, visualize, explore
and mark up SOLIDWORKS and other files directly in your
browser.
ImageImageImage
Governance in the Cloud
Monitor license usage, manage members, and assign and
remove licenses from a single administrative dashboard,
lowering administrative overhead. Easily stay up-to-date and
benefit from the latest enhancements.
ImageImageImage
TRAINING AND SUPPORT
Training and Support
Get up to speed fast using online training content, a vibrant
community and support from IME.

HOW DOES THIS HELP ME AS A SOLIDWORKS USER?

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform is a collection of cloud-based applications which:

^

Different applications that are included by default or that you can add, allowing you to access certain functionality from your web browser.

^

Easy to view, annotate, manage and share designs from anywhere, at any time and on any device.

Within the platform, you can access all available apps at any time by clicking on the different quadrants of the compass icon in the upper-left corner of the platform.

You can even customise a dashboard-space where you can layout tabs and widgets that showcase the information of that is most important to your team and the project.
