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

Before you sign up for a SolidWorks software demo, it's a good idea to arm yourself with some basic information. Naturally the SolidWorks rep will want you to think that hteir software is the greatest thing since sliced bread. But you should consider the impact this software will have on your business.

Pro's of Solid Works Software

  • Easy to learn basic modeling, assembly and drawing skills. SolidWorks makes use of existing Windows skills such as cut and paste and drag and drop as much as possible.

    • Con's of Solid Works Design

  • Your drawing filing and naming system will have to accomodate part, assembly and drawing files all associated with the same project. In the past you only had a single 2D cad drawing file.

    • 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.

    Solid Works Viewer

    The edrawings solid works viewer makes it easy for anyone without solid works to view and markup models and drawings.

    • The F-35, Joint strike search and rescue fighter
      The recent 16 billion dollar purchase of F-35 stealth fighters is a triumph in buying American . While Canada needs more search and rescue planes to patrol the oceans the Canadian government decides to purchase stealth fighters. One wonders what kind of a changing role the Canadian air force has up its sleeve for these high tech seek and destroy weapons.

      Perhaps the stealth and speed will allow our pilots to sneak up on sailors before they even get shipwrecked. The pilot can launch missiles at the pesky shoals or reefs blowing them up, preventing any marine disaster from ever happening.

      Canadian Pilots flying the joint strike fighter solo over the arctic are assured that the fighters engine is more “robust” and unlikely to fail. Much like the Titanic was unsinkable. It will be cold comfort to a our pilots, reflecting on their emergency manual which said “relax, your jet engine is robust” as they eject in 50 below temperature.

      Worse, the purchase of joint strike fighters protect American jobs, not Canadian ones, as the purchase of Bombardier search and rescue planes would have. Unfortunately when the Pentagon barks, we have to pay attention. This was true in the days of the Avro Arrow and now again with the F-35 joint strike fighter.
