ONLINE COLLABORATION PLATFORM
SOLIDWORKS 2024
Trusted, powerful modelling software, enhanced.
3D Design & 2D Drawings
Create designs faster and more accurately, including 3D models and 2D drawings of complex parts and large assemblies.
Routing Tools (Premium)
Complete your design, including all your piping, tubing, and electrical routes, using tools specifically designed to speed these tasks.
Library of Components (Pro)
Leverage the extensive components and parts library so you don’t have to waste time modelling common parts such as bolts, nuts, washers, and other common hardware items.
Cost & Product Optimisation (Pro)
Design for cost and design for manufacturing by using automatic manufacturing-cost estimation tools and manufacturability checks.
Automatic Interference Checking
Automatically check for interferences and misalignments before going to manufacturing.
Photorealistic Images (Pro)
Communicate ideas more effectively using tools to create, publish, and view lifelike, photorealistic images of designs.
Simulation Tools (Premium)
Reduce costs and get to market faster with simulation tools for motion and structural analysis that allow you to understand how your designs will perform in the real world without the need to manufacture expensive and time-consuming prototypes.
Data Management (Pro)
Manage interactions between team members and control revisions using data management tools.
Support for AR & VR
Dramatically simplify the path from SOLIDWORKS CAD to augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) with an export option (extended reality).
STANDALONE OR 3DEXPERIENCE
Deploy as standalone or with 3DEXPERIENCE
Standalone – with Cloud Services
SOLIDWORKS, based on your machine – but with additional cloud tools to store, share and version control your designs.
3DEXPERIENCE
SOLIDWORKS – but with additional access to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, including cloud based NURBS and parametric modelling, collaboration tools and more.
Standard
Get up to speed quickly and benefit from this powerful 3D design and manufacturing solution. Along with part, assembly, and 2D drawing functionality, specialised tools are included for sheet metal, weldments, surfacing, molds, product configuration, design analysis, DFM, and CAM. CAM included with an active subscription.
Professional
SOLIDWORKS Professional builds on the capabilities of SOLIDWORKS Standard with ECAD/MCAD collaboration, automated cost estimation, collaboration capabilities, design and drawing checking, a sophisticated components and parts library, and advanced photorealistic rendering.
Premium
SOLIDWORKS Premium builds on SOLIDWORKS Professional by adding structural and motion analysis capabilities, advanced surface flattening, reverse engineering, and electrical cable and pipe routing functionality.
