If you’re a designer, chances are you spend most of your day using a CAD system. Are you satisfied with your current CAD system? Is it easy to use? Can new employees ramp up quickly?

This screencast will help you answer these questions as you watch SolidWorks in action. You’ll see the spacious heads-up graphics area, context-sensitive feedback, customizable commands, powerful shortcuts, pop-up toolbars, robust search, intelligent FeatureManager, and much more.

Although 3D has revolutionized product design, you still need a manufacturing drawing for the shop floor. With SolidWorks, presenting design information in this trusted and universally understood form is quick and painless, enabling you to meet your deadlines and quality standards with ease.

This screencast demonstrates how you can significantly reduce the time you spend creating, annotating, updating, and checking drawings. As you'll see, your designs are clear, complete, and accurate, and they get to manufacturing faster. 

As the complexity of a design increases, so does the chance of making a costly mistake.

In this screencast, see for yourself how SolidWorks can help you dramatically reduce errors, whether you're a novice or an expert. Experience SolidWorks as it detects wrong moves early, offers useful suggestions, and walks you through the solution. The goal is to keep you on the right track, so you can quickly move great products out the door.

When you're evaluating CAD tools, it's natural to focus on parts and drawings. Yet some of the most powerful benefits show up at the assembly level, where you can easily assess an entire system design and quickly solve any problems.

This screencast focuses on how SolidWorks makes putting components together properly quick, easy, and accurate, so your assemblies will be a success. We highlight the power and flexibility of assembly creation through a wide range of timesaving mate capabilities as well as options for maximizing large-assembly performance. No other CAD software makes it this easy to create assemblies, test complex mechanisms, perform simulations, and optimize the design for manufacturing.
