SOLIDWORKS Rx Safe Modes are diagnostic tools that can be used to help determine whether an issue stems from the graphics card/driver combo, or from the System Options. Here's where to find them.
Isight provides designers, engineers, and researchers with an open system for integrating design and simulation models (created with various CAD, CAE, and other software applications) to automate the execution of simulations for design exploration and optimization. The software solution can easily create an approximation model for any task or individual application component - from any source of simulation or test result data.
The SOLIDWORKS Rx tool is a robust diagnostic tool used by GoEngineer and SOLIDWORKS Tech Support teams. It helps to quickly record, log, and diagnose issues with the SOLIDWORKS suite of software.
By utilizing Markforged additive technology, companies are moving bits, not atoms. Instead of shipping a physical piece of steel across the continent, they are sending a secure digital file to a printer located right on the shop floor or inside a mobile maintenance container.
Engineering teams tasked with creating new and innovative amusement park rides often face a difficult challenge: how can we make the ride faster, lighter, and safer while minimizing costs and improving sustainability? That’s exactly what Extreme Manufacturing Engineering (EME) set out to achieve through its groundbreaking collaboration with Bright Laser Technologies (BLT). Using additive manufacturing, they were able to design and produce a roller coaster bogie unlike anything ever seen before.
SOLIDWORKS Electrical 2026 introduces a wave of new features designed to make electrical design faster, cleaner, and more intelligent. From smarter connector tools to smoother 3D routing and improved collaboration, these updates focus on helping you get high-quality results with less effort.
These new products from Dell and NVIDIA provide SOLIDWORKS professionals with the necessary performance to tackle the next frontier of engineering design, offering practical guidance on selecting the right hardware and optimizing system setup for maximum output.
In September 2025, BYD’s Yangwang U9X supercar shattered expectations, setting a world top-speed record for production vehicles at 308.33 mph and clocking a blistering 6:59.157 lap time at the Nürburgring Nordschleife. It’s an incredible feat of electric propulsion, but the unsung hero of this achievement isn’t just the motor; it’s the frame holding it all together. The U9X’s success was built on a foundation of metal additive manufacturing provided by Bright Laser Technologies (BLT), proving that 3D printing is no longer just for prototyping; it is a production-grade powerhouse.
Efficient engineering is built on a foundation of collaboration, version control, and the ability to manage data seamlessly across teams and tools. SOLIDWORKS Product Data Management (PDM) stands out as a comprehensive solution that helps overcome common challenges, such as misplaced files, outdated versions, or workflow bottlenecks. As engineering teams face increasingly complex projects, adopting robust systems like SOLIDWORKS PDM becomes essential for maintaining high performance. Below, we’ll walk through key benefits, use cases, and features of SOLIDWORKS PDM.
