The Advantages: 

  • The entire Simulation portfolio is fully embedded into your familiar SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD interface. It supports SOLIDWORKS CAD configurations and materials.  
  • Predict product performance by calculating component stresses, strains, displacements, and factors of safety (FOS). 
  • The estimate fatigue life of components subjected to varying loads, analyze complex and nonlinear material behavior (metals, rubbers, and plastics), and accounts for large deflections and sliding contact in nonlinear analysis, and more. 
  • Determine the optimal or most robust design with parametric “what if” and optimization analyses through simplified simulation studies using bolts, pins, springs, bearings, and edge/spot welds. 
  • Easily export and share SOLIDWORKS Simulation results in an eDrawings format (eDrawings viewer is available as a free download here).

SOLIDWORKS Simulation

Standard

SOLIDWORKS Simulation Standard is an intuitive virtual testing environment for static linear, time-based motion, and high-cycle fatigue simulation. It delivers a concurrent engineering approach, helping you know if your product will perform properly and how long it will last—during the design phase.

SOLIDWORKS Simulation

Professional

SOLIDWORKS Simulation Professional enables you to optimize your design, determine product mechanical resistance, product durability, topology, natural frequencies, and test heat transfer and buckling instabilities. It can also perform sequential multi-physics simulations.

SOLIDWORKS Simulation

Premium

SOLIDWORKS Simulation Premium lets you efficiently evaluate your designs for nonlinear and dynamic response, dynamic loading, and composite materials. It includes three advanced studies: Non-Linear Static, Non-Linear Dynamic, and Linear Dynamics.

Customer stories

The know-how of the SolidXperience optimization service has enabled LDV to achieve its productivity objectives, carry out large-scale projects and remain competitive against the competition.
Vincent Alie Design Director
Since implementing PDM, we have the foundation in place that we need to automate our processes, eliminate waste, and remove unnecessary costs.
Chip MontgomeryTeam Leader
Our success rate is so high because we’ve validated close correlation between the results we get from SOLIDWORKS Plastics Professional and actual production, using photoelastic and microscopic analysis tools to confirm the software’s simulation results.
Jeffrey NicollPresident
With SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D, we’ve reduced BOM generation time from hours to minutes, and the BOM information that we output is more accurate.
Shawn EckhardtControls Engineer
From incoming part lots to in-process assembly inspections, SOLIDWORKS Inspection software helps us catch more unacceptable parts and eliminate assembly issues.
Mark GerhartConfiguration Manage
With the automation that we’ve achieved integrating SOLIDWORKS with our ERP system, our designers only have to worry about working on the design and getting that job done properly... It’s much easier to visualize and model these designs in SOLIDWORKS, and we’ve been able to automate fabrication by employing MBD techniques.
Anderson ViecelliOwner and Engineering Manager
SOLIDWORKS Composer software gives us the capability to automate the creation of renderings and exploded views, which further enhances our understanding of the project.
Gary HagerSenior Project Manager/Engineer
What really sold me on SOLIDWORKS Visualize software was the ‘glass’ quality—how real it makes glass bottles look. We do a lot with glass and plastics, and we need a tool that provides the most photorealistic images possible. With the other packages, the glass quality was really not there, so we chose to standardize on SOLIDWORKS Visualize.
