SOLIDWORKS Machine Design

Unique Functions of SOLIDWORKS for Machine Designers

SOLIDWORKS – Benefits for Machine Design

  • Customized Interface for Machine Designers
  • Interactive Design of Machine Elements
  • Intuitive Design of Mechanisms using SOLIDWORKS Mechanical Conceptual
  • Estimation of Costs using SOLIDWORKS Costing – Design for Cost
  • Tolerance Stack Up Analysis with TolAnalyst
  • Ability to visualize, check and validate Design Concepts in 3D
  • Production-ready Bi-Directional Parametric 2D Drawings that update automatically with Design Changes
  • Communicate 2D and 3D Designs using e-Drawings – for SOLIDWORKS, AutoCAD DWG and DXF
  • Machine Design Library Sketches, Features, Parts, Assemblies for Drag-and-Drop
  • Reduce or eliminate ECO’s and ECN’s ( resulting in cost benefits )
  • Improve Reliability by performing FEA using SOLIDWORKS Simulation inside SOLIDWORKS – No Translation of design data

Special Toolset for Machine Designers

Time-saving functionalities of SOLIDWORKS Professional for Machine Design

  • Design checker – A timesaving tool for ensuring compliance with your organization’s design standards
  • Workgroup PDM – product data management – Control CAD file revisions and manage all project data more efficiently
  • Toolbox – A time-saving library of Smart Parts, fully integrated with SOLIDWORKS software

GENERAL FAQs IN Sheetmetal

I will have to design different types of components like sheet metal, and structures in my machines. How will SOLIDWORKS be suitable for my design process?

You can create frame structures for your machine and build sheet metal enclosures around it with top-down assembly modeling in SOLIDWORKS, so that if frame dimension changes, sheet metal components will get updated automatically. Also, you can design any complex parts or surfaces with SOLIDWORKS.

Is there any way to know my cost with my SOLIDWORKS designs, based on material consumption?

Yes, you can know the cost of manufacturing your products and their components based on the data you have provided in the templates. You can specify the cost of material(Stock, Sheet Metal, Structures, etc.,), manufacturing operations, bought-out components, and more to know costs as your design gets updated.

Can I validate my machine for real-world loads and check for failures?

Yes, With SOLIDWORKS simulation solutions you can conduct advanced simulations to know the stresses and displacements in the process and make design changes eliminating costly prototypes.

Is there any library for standard components like nuts & bolts?

Yes, With SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD you get millions of standard components like bearings, nuts, bolts, cams, and gears are much more to use in your designs with simple drag and drop.

Is it possible to design electrical panels for my machines with wiring routes?

Electrical designs are possible with SOLIDWORKS’ seamless ECAD/MCAD collaboration capabilities. Design electrical schematics and generate automatic wire routing in your SOLIDWORKS product assembly based on those schematics.
