SOLIDWORKS 2019 contains many exciting improvements and new capabilities
that help you design, present, and communicate your ideas faster and easier.
Here are some of the key improvements:
1. MESH MODELING IMPROVEMENTS SPEED REVERSE ENGINEERING, TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION AND 3D PRINTING
• Easily create complex textures by converting 2D appearances into real 3D geometry
• Use mesh files like they are solids using the new Segment Mesh
• Automatically create 2D sketches at intersections of geometry and a plane with the slicing command
Benefits- Increased capabilities for mesh geometry, streamlining reverse engineering and topology optimization.
2. SMARTER MACHINING WITH SOLIDWORKS CAM/ MACHINIST
•
Corner Slow Down and Arc Federate allow slowdown when approaching sharp corners
and arcs
•
Create machine-specific machining strategies
•
Tooling improved with support for tapered shanks and more parameters
Benefits- Enhanced user control and automation for each operation and machining strategy.
3. INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY AND FLEXIBILITY WITH SOLIDWORKS INSPECTION
• Improved Bill of Characteristics with new grid layout and group/ ungroup
•
Additional extraction options to include whole tables for use on complex parts
• Integration
with SOLIDWORKS® PDM to manage and organize inspection projects and
deliverables
Benefits- Increased productivity when creating quality control documentation.
4. IMPROVED WORKFLOWS WITH SOLIDWORKS COMPOSER FOR TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
• SOLIDWORKS PDM integration enables access to PDM functionality directly from the ribbon within SOLIDWORKS Composer
• Import Product Manufacturing Information
(PMI) data directly from SOLIDWORKS models into SOLIDWORKS Composer
• New icons, new commands and
support for five new languages
Benefits- Improved workflow integration with SOLIDWORKS, productivity improvements and enhanced user experience.
5. VISUALIZATION AND RENDERING—MAKING THE DIGITAL WORLD MORE REAL… FASTER
• AI (Artificial Intelligence) Denoiser—Uses
AI to decipher and eliminate noise from your renders
• Integrated Physics Engine &
Vehicle Driving Simulator for faster scene setup and real-time design review
• Enhanced Decal features and
support for Video Decals
Benefits- Set up your projects and instantly render them 10x faster with real-world physics and advanced measured materials.
6. CONFIGURE AND RENDER PRODUCTS ON THE FLY AND ONLINE WITH SOLIDWORKS SELL
• Click to add SOLIDWORKS designs to
a SOLIDWORKS Sell cloud based configurator
• Use on any device to share
concepts and configurations of designs quickly
• Use Augmented Reality (AR) to show
products in their actual environment
Benefits- Unlock the value of your design data and leverage it with your teams and your customers.
7. FROM CAD MODEL TO REAL PARTS IN RECORD TIME WITH 3DEXPERIENCE MARKETPLACE
• On-demand manufacturing across all
manufacturing processes
• Place orders, track communications
and collaborate with leading manufacturers worldwide
• Seamless integration between
SOLIDWORKS and your favorite Manufacturers
Benefits- Streamline interactions with manufacturers such as quoting and ordering parts.
8. ENHANCED MBD (MODEL BASED DEFINITION) CAPABILITIES FOR FASTER 3D ANNOTATION OF MODELS
• DimXpert renamed to MBD Dimension
and now available in Assembly mode
• Create bend tables, bend notes and
flat views automatically for sheet metal parts
• 3D annotations passed to derived
and mirrored parts
• Enhanced security controls for 3D
PDF outputs
Benefits- Speed up downstream manufacturing with more intuitive and actionable 3D annotations.
9. MORE POWERFUL SIMULATION CAPABILITIES
• Topology Optimization with Stress
and Frequency constraints/ goals for optimum parts
• Enhanced non-linear pin connector
for accurate pin and clevis analysis
• Easy data reuse with drag-and-drop
connectors/contacts into Non-Linear Dynamic studies
Benefits- Set up and perform complex simulation studies easier and with greater accuracy.
10. SOLIDWORKS ELECTRICAL AND PCB IMPROVED FOR FASTER MECHATRONIC DESIGN
• Drive mechanically-oriented PCB
placement barriers for SOLIDWORKS PCB
• Auto-generate flattened route
drawings and related tables in SOLIDWORKS Electrical
• Use splices from SOLIDWORKS Electrical
schematics utilizing passing circuit symbols in 3D
Benefits- Improved capabilities for designing mechatronics products with SOLIDWORKS.
With SOLIDWORKS 2019 you get more power and speed to tackle most complex problems, and the depth of functionality to finish critical detail work.
