SOLIDWORKS Composer
SOLIDWORKS Composer allows non-CAD users to create associative 2D and 3D product documentation directly from 3D CAD data. SOLIDWORKS Composer empowers users in documentation, sales, marketing, customer service, training, support and manufacturing with 3D data and tools. Before SOLIDWORKS Composer, all changes to product data required time-consuming manual revisions of documentation.
Easily repurpose existing 3D design data to rapidly create and update high quality graphical assets that are fully associated with your 3D design
By using SOLIDWORKS Composer, your entire organization can automate and integrate the documentation process. This not only reduces costs, but also improves the quality and consistency of all documentation that you create throughout the life cycle of each product.
With SOLIDWORKS Composer importing data directly from your designs and updates documents and animations automatically, you can start your documentation earlier in the process.
With SOLIDWORKS Composer technology, manufacturing organizations can leverage existing 3D CAD data to streamline development of technical communication content and create more compelling documentation with higher impact. You can start your product communication deliverables sooner, update them faster, and complete them with the product design, giving you lower costs and improved time to market.
• Provide customers with clear, easy-to-understand documentation
• Eliminate expensive errors and quickly update all product documentation through automation
• Get new products to market faster and gain a competitive advantage
• Leverage existing 3D designs in multiple CAD formats to produce accurate, up-to-date product documentation
• Enable technical and non-technical staff to collaborate effectively during documentation production
• Improve customer service
Detailed Views
Make all of your product-related communications more powerful and effective by adding detailed visuals, which you can easily create and render directly from the latest 3D CAD data.
Interactive animations
3DVIA Composer makes it easy to add navigation controls to create interactive animations that are simple to use.
Technical illustrations
Create technical illustrations that add another dimension of clarity and information to your product documentation.
High-resolution Images
Create more lifelike visuals and eliminate the need for physical prototypes in creating product marketing materials.
2D and 3D Content Publishing
Easily create high quality 2D and 3D technical communication with the greatest level of product detail and clarity for an interactive end-user experience.
Concurrent Product Communication Development
Create technical communications from the start of product development and update them automatically so that materials are finished and delivered simultaneously with your product.
