SOLIDWORKS Composer allows you to create technical communication deliverables alongside product development. With an easy-to-use interface, you can create highly detailed 2D and 3D graphics that focus on specific components. You can also output 3D interactive animations for training or marketing presentations.
Technical Communication
Marketing & Manufacturing/Production Products:
When it comes to communicating your product’s value, SOLIDWORKS Technical Communications is your ace in the hole. Discover how this suite of powerful tools can enhance your product communication, give you a competitive edge, and speed up your time-to-market.
Marketing & Manufacturing/Production Products:
- SOLIDWORKS Composer
- SOLIDWORKS Inspection
- SOLIDWORKS MBD
SOLIDWORKS Composer is an associative tool to 3D CAD model and any change in the CAD model will be automatically updated in your technical communication deliverables. This means you can get products to market faster with high-quality and accurate documentation. SOLIDWORKS Composer pictures and animations are particularly useful for simplifying assembly instructions and work orders, reducing errors on the shop floor, eliminating language barriers and minimizing localization costs.
SOLIDWORKS Inspection is user-friendly software that helps in reducing the time required to create inspection documentation by up to 90 percent and also reducing input errors.
SOLIDWORKS Inspection tool is used to create First Article Inspection (FAI) and in-process inspection reports. It automates the creation of ballooned inspection drawings and inspection reports such as AS9102, PPAP, etc. It includes a SOLIDWORKS add-in and a stand-alone application that allows users to use their legacy data, regardless of whether they have SOLIDWORKS files, PDFs, or TIFFs.
SOLIDWORKS MBD is an integrated drawingless manufacturing solution for SOLIDWORKS.It is integrated with SOLIDWORKS and helps companies to define, organize and publish 3D Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) in industry standard file formats such as eDrawings, 3D PDF and STP242. Unlike traditional 2D drawings, SOLIDWORKS MBD guides the manufacturing process directly in 3D, which helps to streamline production, reduce errors, cut cycle time and support industry standards such as Military-Standard-31000A, ASME Y14.41, ISO 16792, and DIN ISO 16792.
SOLIDWORKS MBD allows for the direct definition of PMI in 3D, which eliminates the need for expensive, time-consuming and risky 2D drawings. This will result in saving up to one-third of the total engineering cost. Additionally, 3D PMI helps to speed up communication, reduce quote time and minimize errors by leveraging its 3D data interrogation, interactivity and rich Meta properties.
