Limit Mates in SOLIDWORKS: Complete Guide for Beginners
In modern mechanical design and engineering design validation, accurate representation of component motion is essential for validating functionality and ensuring reliability. SOLIDWORKS, a leading tool in CAD assemblies and parametric modeling, provides a range of assembly constraints to address this need. Among these, Limit Mates play a crucial role. These mates enable controlled relative […]
How to Optimize Designs Using SOLIDWORKS Simulation
Introduction: We use Optimization studies for getting best results with reduced dimensions or mass. Optimization studies are of two types; one is topology optimization where the tool suggests the places to remove the mass while maintaining good stiffness. Second is Design Optimization study where the dimensions of the design are manipulated to find best design […]

What’s New in SOLIDWORKS 2024-Assemblies| part-2
Auto-Repair for Missing Mate References Improvements to Auto Repair for concentric and parallel mates add more criteria for identifying replacement entities. XR Exporter Integration In ‘Save As’ dialog box, there are two file extensions included in the latest version, ‘Extended Reality (*.gltf)’ and ‘Extended Reality Binary (*.glb)’. If the files are saved in the latest version, then, […]
What’s New in SOLIDWORKS 2024-Assemblies| part-1
Inserting a component Earlier, to change the configuration and to fix the position of the component, it was possible only after the insertion of the component. In the new version, before insertion itself in the property manager we can choose the configuration and the status of the position is decided either, fix, float or fix […]
Tips for import large DWG and DXF files into SOLIDWORKS
SOLIDWORKS: SOLIDWORKS is a mechanical design automation software that is a feature-based, parametric solid modeling design tool. You can create entirely associated 3D solid models with or without constraints while utilizing automatic or user-defined relations to capture design intent. IMPORT PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS SOLIDWORKS offers improved performance for importing certain file types. Performance is improved for importing […]
Sparking innovation in startups
In 2014, Tokyo-based ABBALab created a support program for startups that wish to develop and market hardware for the Internet of Things (IoT). ABBALab proposes a wide variety of services, from funding and equipment to skill enhancement starting at the prototyping phase of early development. Konishi explained that he founded exiii on the idea that […]

SOLIDWORKS 2023 Enhancements: Sheet Metal
Gauge Values in Cut List Properties If you use gauge tables to define the thickness of sheet metal parts, the gauge number appears in the Cut-List Properties dialog box. In the associated drawing, the gauge value is available for annotations and cut lists. In the Cut-List Properties dialog box, the Evaluated Value for Sheet Metal Gauge is Gauge Number GA. For example, if you use […]
