Dassault Systèmes Enhances Design Collaboration with SOLIDWORKS 2017

Enhanced Productivity, Collaboration and Product Data Management Help More than Three Million Users Harness the Emotive Power of Design to Create Powerful Experiences

Dassault Systèmes has announced the launch of SOLIDWORKS 2017. From small startups to global organizations, more than 3.1 million users can create multisensory experiences through innovative product design, with access to easy 3D design and development applications anytime, anywhere and on any device.

Powered by Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform, SOLIDWORKS 2017 helps innovators design, validate, collaborate, build and manage their product development processes with integrated applications. SOLIDWORKS 2017 features more core power and performance, as well as new capabilities to address paperless manufacturing through the support of Model Based Definition, and printed circuit board (PCB) design. Both new and experienced users can improve productivity with simulation to analyze, solve, visualize and verify functionality of designs, before any prototype is created. New tools unlock any 3D model for better collaboration with vendors and customers, and dynamic product data management (PDM) from concept through to manufacturing allows for stronger support of multi-site and remote teams.

Gian Paolo Bassi, CEO, SOLIDWORKS, Dassault Systèmes said, “SOLIDWORKS 2017 simplifies the design and development process with a better user experience, new capabilities for emerging technologies, and improved functionality for seamless collaboration with teams and networks. Each year, our SOLIDWORKS community’s feedback drives our research and development to offer a flexible product portfolio for business, design and engineering needs. We are excited to put even more power and performance in their hands with SOLIDWORKS 2017.”

The following are some of the top user-requested features, new capabilities and enhancements included in the SOLIDWORKS 2017 portfolio include SOLIDWORKS PCB, User-friendly interface, Modeling power, Surfacing, Magnetic mates, Simulation static study—input parameters to automatically make logical decisions, stress hot spots, Single-click conversion, RealView, 3D Interconnect, eDrawings, SOLIDWORKS PDM, SOLIDWORKS MBD.

Additionally, users can quickly and accurately communicate critical product information throughout downstream manufacturing operations with features such as basic dimensions and fully automated Polar Dimensioning Schemes, direct referencing of edges, easy creation of intersection geometry between drafted surfaces, and 3D PDF publishing at different accuracy levels for control over file size and quality.
