DriveWorks: Design Automation Solution for SOLIDWORKS
April 29
Design automation helps custom manufacturers reduce engineering bottlenecks by automating repetitive CAD and proposal tasks. This allows design engineers to produce drawings, proposals, and design updates faster while reducing errors, rework, backlogs, and delays. By streamlining workflows across sales, engineering, and manufacturing, design automation improves throughput, quality, profitability, and the ability to win more business.
What is design automation?
Design automation simplifies the design process for “same but different” products by using predefined rules and logic to control parameters in CAD models, assemblies, and drawings.
Design automation solutions automate repetitive engineering design tasks such as creating drawings, adjusting product design parameters, or applying specific design rules.
Design automation for SOLIDWORKS
DriveWorks design automation technology enables manufacturers to capture and reuse design, manufacturing, and cost estimation knowledge to deliver custom products faster and with greater accuracy, without using complex macros, design tables, or configurations.
DriveWorks is exclusively designed for SOLIDWORKS, making it the ideal choice for any manufacturing company using SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD.
How does DriveWorks design automation for SOLIDWORKS work?
Step 1: Capture Parameters
Identify and capture the parameters you modify manually in your SOLIDWORKS models, assemblies, and drawings using the DriveWorks Add-in.
Step 2: Build rules and logic
Use the intelligent DriveWorks Rules Builder to encode your engineering knowledge into rules that update and control these parameters.
Step 3: Run your automated design project
Run your automated design project to quickly generate SOLIDWORKS files tailored to specific customer requirements. Create accurate models, assemblies, drawings, and BOMs, based on the rules you’ve defined.
