SolidWorks software - Worlds most popular 3D modeler

SolidWorks software is one of most popular 3D modeling programs. It's most compelling benefits are that it is both easy to use and easy to learn. This is important if you have to train a new operator quickly to meet the demands of your customers for 3D solid models.

Solid Works demo

Solid Works system requirements

Solid Works is a data intensive program. It's unlikely the same computer you have used for 2D CAD drawings will be up to the task of running Solid Works productively. Solid Works system requirements call for a CAD workstation. This is a special kind of computer that is optimized for running graphic intensive CAD programs.

Desktop workstations often use video cards that are as expensive as an entire computer. While you may be told that Solid Works can open assemblies with thousands of parts. You are going to need a CAD workstation if you want to work on those files productively.

Every 3D solid modeler wrestles with the problem of how to open hundreds of files at once without slowing work to a halt. Using the msot memory and the largest, fastest hard drives and processors in the CAD workstation are often the only way to ensure reasonable performance.

Solidworks World

Solid Works world is solid works annual conference and exposition. At each conference a popular keynote speaker is brought in along with all the latest software and hardware from solid works and its vendors.
