SOLIDWORKS Composer
Overview
SOLIDWORKS Composer – Advanced 3D Technical Communication with Interactive Product Documentation
Engineers have always envied Illustrators and Graphics art specialists and creative designers when it comes to product presentation and service manual preparation. Start documentation sooner in the design process and update it faster when design change. Reduce the errors occurring on the shop floor due to low quality of shop floor instructions. You can show your product is assembled or repaired so you can eliminate the language barriers. Decrease the total documentation time.
Key 3DVIA Composer benefits from Dassault Systemes:
Create accurate and graphic-rich product documentation. Reduce documentation costs by at 25% or more. Win more business and differentiate your products from competitors. Add life to documentation with interactive 3D animations. Engineers are free to design, not create documentation. Fewer shipment delays or blocked payments.
