SOLIDWORKS Delivery Day 2025 FD03 introduces 15 exciting new enhancements, but a few feel especially groundbreaking because they mark the moment SOLIDWORKS integrates artificial intelligence. That’s right: SOLIDWORKS just got smarter.
When working in SOLIDWORKS Electrical, you will often need Programmable Logic Control (PLC) for automation. This guide explains the process for adding PLC Drawing configurations to Electrical projects.
When a new or existing user requires read or edit access to files, several layers of permissions are necessary. Without the appropriate permissions, the user could experience a blank folder, a lack of visibility to folders entirely, and the inability to add or modify files to the SOLIDWORKS PDM vault. Let’s take the complexity out of this setup by going over each layer separately.
The DyeMansion Powershot C is an automated depowdering solution for parts 3D printed on the Stratasys H350 or another laser sintering printer. Though much of the unused Nylon powder can be recirculated into the printer, there will always be some residual powder that has adhered to the surface of parts coming out of the machine. Removing that powder is either a tedious, manual process or requires post-processing equipment. It can be daunting to add a new piece of unfamiliar equipment to your workflow, with its own operation and consumable nuances. The Powershot C uses an automated tumbling and blasting process in conjunction with its proprietary PolyShot PC4 media.
Proper SOLIDWORKS training can transform your ability to design precise, professional models, whether you’re working on simple parts or intricate assemblies. In this article, we’ll provide insights and recommendations for effectively modeling basic parts, presenting foundational techniques and tools in SOLIDWORKS that you can start applying today.
When working in SOLIDWORKS Electrical, placing symbols and defining part info is common practice. However, there are times when a symbol always has the same info, and having to re-enter it every time the symbol is placed is time-consuming and redundant. This article explains how to save this data to a symbol for easy access and placement.
Stratasys’ Separator Digital Material (Separator DM) is a novel 3D printing material blend designed to simplify the production of acrylic orthodontic appliances. In essence, it acts as a built-in separating medium that is printed as a thin coating into the outer surface of dental models to allow acrylic devices (like Hawley retainers) to release cleanly from the model.
As part of Dassault Systèmes' commitment to enhancing the security of your account, a new two-factor authentication (2FA) process is now required when accessing the DSx Client system. This update will improve security for customers and will require 2FA when accessing sensitive information, such as user data and serial numbers.
When working in SOLIDWORKS Electrical, changing user data fields to more relevant property names can be a helpful step for companies when reporting. Doing so helps to eliminate the need for a "cheat sheet" to keep track of which user data field corresponds to which property. Each component classification gets its own user data fields and can be modified as needed. This guide will go over the steps to do so.
