It’s not uncommon for parts to have many holes of different sizes and positions. Getting all of the dimensions and callouts onto a drawing can quickly turn into a cluttered mess of confusing numbers and symbols. This is where Hole Tables come in handy. Inserting a Hole Table in SOLIDWORKS will organize all this information automatically, in a clean table-based format that is easy to read and understand.

SOLIDWORKS Visualize supports high-resolution 4k displays. So, why isn’t your model showing in high resolution? Because of a simple Viewport setting—and it isn’t a setting in Windows. The Viewport is the preview of your project that you see when you’re working on it. By default, it’s set pretty small. This is to increase performance and load times, and it doesn’t affect your final export. It’s just there so you can see what you’re working on, and you can customize the size to your liking.

Standards. Every company has them to set an expected level of quality. In SOLIDWORKS, we create our models and drawings to ANSI, ISO, or other standards. Files are translated through standardized formats, which is easy to accomplish as these standards are maintained by governing bodies and are integrated.

CAMWorks Solids has now been converted to a CAMWorks SOLIDWORKS OEM license. This means you’ll need to install both SOLIDWORKS and then install CAMWorks. These steps must be followed to avoid any issues. First, ensure you have Admin Rights to the computer you are working on. Below we will explain the install process, in the correct order, for SOLIDWORKS OEM and CAMWorks. If you are upgrading your CAMWorks, be sure to back up your TechDB so it's not lost.

One of my favorite aspects of the Formlabs Fuse 1+ 30W SLS 3D printer is the design freedom that comes from using loose powder as a natural support structure. But once I’ve excavated my parts from a finished build, I’m left with a crucial question: what do I do with all the unsintered powder? Formlabs has designed the Fuse 1+ 30W to work with a mixture of fresh and reclaimed powder.

This article goes over the steps to turn off the Include Detail Mode Date When Saving option in the Windows registry. This registry setting determines if older drawings open with the Save Model Data on in Document Properties in SOLIDWORKS 2022 and newer.

When running Stratasys FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) 3D printers — especially in professional industrial environments — efficient post-processing is essential for achieving clean, accurate, and repeatable parts. One of the greatest advantages of Stratasys 3D printers is their ability to print with Soluble Support materials such as SR-30, SR-35, SR-100, SR-110, and QSR, allowing for a hands-free cleaning process. To this end, the Oryx sca1200ht is one of the simplest and most user-friendly tools available for FDM post-processing.
