SOLIDWORKS
SOLIDWORKS is the industry-standard 3D CAD solution trusted by more than 8 million engineers and designers worldwide. For over 30 years, it has helped mechanical engineers, product designers and manufacturing firms compress design cycles, control costs and deliver higher-quality products faster. SOLIDWORKS combines parametric 3D modeling, integrated simulation, product data management and direct manufacturing workflows in a single, connected environment—eliminating the need for disconnected point tools.
