Thank You for an Amazing 2015!
Albeit a year full of changes and challenges, 2015 had been amazing for us. Major highlight last year was our 35thanniversary celebration where we had a year-long of celebration and ended with a Gala. Being recognised this year by SME100 as one of the Fast Moving...
Key Challenges in Machinery Design – How does a design perform in real life
To design a mechanism with better overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), we need to identify a suitable system for the machine to perform to its optimum under a set of constraints; this could be challenging. What's more, in modern machine operation, many motion...

Its time for SOLIDWORKS World 2016!Each year, a list of new enhancements in the next release of SOLIDWORKS will be introduced for us to look forward to. This year's SOLIDWORKS World was no different. So, what's new in SOLIDWORKS 2017?Here comes a quick...
IME’s SW2016 Top 12 Enhancements: #12 Drawingless – MBD
SOLIDWORKS MBD was being introduced since last year to promote drawingless manufacturing. It is an integrated tool for SOLIDWORKS and helps companies define, organize, and publish 3D Product and Manufacturing Information (PMI) including 3D model data in industry...
IME’s SW2016 Top 12 Enhancements: #11 Realistic Rendering – Photoview360 & SOLIDWORKS Visualize
To perform a rendering is so much easier and faster in SOLIDWORKS because it is integrated with Photoview360. We can create stunning realistic images just like picture below by applying appearance, background, lighting and camera view on it. However, to generate a...
IME’s SW2016 Top 12 Enhancements: #10 Simulation – Mesh Sectioning
The accuracy of results extracted from SOLIDWORKS Simulation is crucial especially in areas of high stress such as sharp end or cutouts regions. One of the enhancement in SOLIDWORKS Simulation 2016 is really helpful for me when I am doing Analysis projects. I can now...
IME’s SW2016 Top 12 Enhancements: #9 Sheet Metal – Cut in Swept Flanges
I recall vividly that I demonstrated Swept flange during SOLIDWORKS INNOVATION DAY year of 2012. It is a great tool and makes sheet metal design work so much easier using a profile and sketch. However, in certain circumstances in previous versions of SolidWorks,...
IME’s SW2016 Top 12 Enhancements: #8 Drawing – Edit Sheet Scale from Status Bar
I have been SOLIDWORKS user for more than 7 years since 2008. I always start the drawing in the wrong sheet scale and end up having to go through so many steps to correct it! So it used to take 5 steps/clicks to complete the change: Right click on sheet >...
IME’s SW2016 Top 12 Enhancements: #7 Assembly – Replace Missing Mate Reference
I have to admit this is my greatest fear – one click ago, the assembly was fine, make one wrong click (deleting a sketch or feature), and BOOM – mate references are lost and the FeatureManager design tree turns into a red Christmas tree. Especially when this certain...
