Connecting with your team remotely is important now more than ever. We need effective tools that are dynamic enough to keep up with the ever changing world. With Dassault Systemes 3DEXPERIENCE platform, you have access to these very tools. In this blog, we’ll cover five helpful tips for getting started with 3DEXPERIENCE. Let’s dive in.

Altair EDEM (DEM - Discrete Element Method) is a leading Simulation program used to accurately model the bulk behavior of granular materials as well as how material loading will affect heavy equipment. Examples of granular materials can be particle-like materials such as coal, ores, soil, rocks, aggregates, pellets, tablets, and powders.

It is possible to copy every Custom Property in a SOLIDWORKS file to another document. If you are familiar with Microsoft Excel, it will be just like copying and pasting a range of cells. To Copy SOLIDWORKS Custom Properties to other files, follow these steps.

For designers and manufacturers, the end goal is usually the same - to make products stronger, cheaper, and lighter and to iterate designs that are easier to manufacture. To do this, many engineers use SOLIDWORKS Simulation software for testing and running analyses as well as realistic rendering software like SOLIDWORKS Visualize to portray real-life products for customer demonstrations and marketing initiatives.

One of the most important maintenance steps when owning a PolyJet 3D printer is keeping the print heads and roller clean. Failure to keep your print heads and roller clean can lead to costly repairs and impair performance. This task isn’t difficult or time-consuming but it is critical to the health of your printer.

Altair SimSolid is a structural simulation that runs its calculation based on original CAD geometry. The geometry does not need simplification like with traditional structural analysis packages because SimSolid does not use a mesh to run its calculations. In addition to static structural analyses, SimSolid can run other analysis types such as modal, dynamic, non-linear, and thermal.

The end of the year is near! As we wrap up 2020, we are rounding up our top 10 SOLIDWORKS webinars presented by our team of Application Engineers. Webinars included in this list are on a variety of SOLIDWORKS products including Simulation, Inspection, SIMULIAworks, 3DEXPERIENCE, and general CAD tips and tricks.

Companies that use industrial 3D printers for production likely have them churning out parts regularly and are often using a variety of 3D printing materials. Like any other 3D printer, an industrial 3D printer requires regular maintenance and upkeep to keep them running smoothly. In this article, we share six helpful instructional videos with tips for Stratasys’ Production Fortus 3D printers (380mc, 450mc, and F900).

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform is a collection of different apps that complement the SOLIDWORKS desktop tools and allow customers to collaborate on designs anywhere. Because the 3DEXPERIENCE platform is cloud-based, and designed for collaboration, it is an ideal for use in the virtual classroom.
