SolidWorks 3D CAD - Safest Choice for 2D AutoCAD©
Users
SolidWorks empowers users to move seamlessly onto 3D CAD while
providing the choice of retaining legacy 2D CAD data in native form,
thereby saving time, eliminating conversion effort and reducing cost of
ownership. SolidWorks 2D Editor (formerly DWGeditor) is a 2D DWG
Drawing Editor that is provided
FREE to SolidWorks Users for protecting their existing AutoCAD DWG
drawings without the necessity to Upgrade AutoCAD once SolidWorks
investment is made. This saves money on costly 2D CAD
upgrades. For SolidWorks Subscription customers SolidWorks 2D
Editor (formerly DWGEditor) is
Upgraded FREE of Cost along with every Upgrade of SolidWorks !
Why move to 3D Now?
3D CAD, such as SolidWorks, possess Unique Advantages that can be
leveraged by 2D CAD users for instant benefits without compromising on
2D Drawing Quality. Some of them are:
- Effective Visualization, Communication (in 3D using eDrawings) and Collaboration
- Integrated Design Validation to achieve Higher Reliability, using
CAE - Finite Element Analysis ( FEA ) and Computational Fluid Dynamics
( CFD ), while arriving at Least Cost ( Optimal ) Designs
- Integrated Tolerance Analysis (using SigmundWorks) for effective
least-cost Tolerancing and PPM estimation
- Elimination of Re-work (off-site as well as on-site) due to
Interference, design changes while providing accurate Bill-of-Materials
( BOM ) at the RFQ Stage !
- Completeness and Correctness of
Drawings to ANSI / ISO Standards assured using DimXpert - A Revolutionary
Technology for the Engineering Design Community
- Simply Stated - To Design Better Products that Customers
Deserve ! Leverage on Next
Generation Technology !
