3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS
The future of design
Take your designs to the next level with the 3D tools from SOLIDWORKS® and 3DEXPERIENCE®.

What is 3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS?
The future of design is collaboration.
Store all your product data in a central, secure location and access it from any device, anywhere, without installation. Easily manage the lifecycle of CAD data across different disciplines and CAD applications, keeping a sharp eye on errors, changes, and workflows.
Robust 3D modeling, photorealistic rendering, and finite element analysis all in one package. Effortlessly build complex models for various industries, utilizing specialized features for sheet metal, welds, surface treatments, injection molding, tools, molds, plastics, and electrical cable routing, among others. Create photorealistic renderings or animations to make design decisions and subject models to stress analysis or time-based motion studies to ensure product performance and safety.
Easily switch between parametric and freeform design and integrate them for unprecedented creations. Design Guidance helps you meet structural requirements before creating the geometry, starting your design on the right track. Enhance your design with complex SubD surfaces, which can be converted into geometry.
