As the engineering and design fields evolve, so do the tools and technologies that support them. In our recent webinar, we joined experts from Dell and NVIDIA to discuss the newest advancements in hardware and software that could significantly impact your work.
CAMWorks recently changed its licensing scheme. Previously, you would request a license from the machine housing the software or from the server for networks. Now, it is handled with an FNO (Flex Net Online) activation key. This is very similar to how SOLIDWORKS uses online activation. You no longer need to request a new license. Simply send the request over the Internet for the activation to take place.
Learn how to fix the errors “Could not find the Standards database” or “The Hole Wizard and Advance Hole database is not the expected version" in SOLIDWORKS.
This article covers the SOLIDWORKS Electrical Save Environment command and two very important reasons why you should use it. The Save Environment command is located in the File tab and is used to save your SOLIDWORKS Electrical settings, projects, and libraries. This command allows you to save all or specific settings, configuration, and library information to a file (similar to a ZIP file) for backup purposes and/or transferring your settings to another computer.
When an assembly contains many components, viewing and understanding the data can be difficult, and it becomes easy to overlook important details. The SOLIDWORKS Assembly Visualization tool makes it easier to focus on and obtain information about your assemblies by streamlining visuals in your graphics areas. Along with the ease of accessibility, it comes with a variety of options to customize and perform routine tasks within a single interface.
In SOLIDWORKS drawings, it's possible to link properties from either the drawing or the model to populate title blocks or annotations within specific drawing views. But wouldn't it be nice if you could specify which properties to display by simply pasting a bit of code into the text boxes? In the following examples, we'll use properties from a SOLIDWORKS drawing, an assembly model used for said drawing, and one of its components.
This guide will show you step by step how to properly load a material canister into your Stratasys Fortus 3D printer. It will help reduce the risk of losing the filament inside a canister and also make it easier to roll the wheel down when getting the material ready to load.
Dynamic Lists are a feature in SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional data cards that allow the choices on one list to be determined by the choices on another list. While Dynamic Lists are exclusive to PDM Professional, similar functionality can be achieved in PDM Standard by using Control Logic and strategic formatting.
