It is quite common for information shared with the workshop through eDrawings not to appear exactly as expected. In fact, part names may seem incorrect, incomplete, or simply different from what the engineering team sees in SOLIDWORKS.<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

As a result, this is a question we are regularly asked: \u201cWhy are part names not the same in eDrawings as in the SOLIDWORKS assembly?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

So, if you use eDrawings as a viewer for shop floor personnel, this article is for you. Let\u2019s take a few minutes to understand why<\/em> this happens and more importantly, how to fix it in a sustainable way<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Typical Context: eDrawings as a Workshop Support Tool<\/h2>\n

In many manufacturing companies, eDrawings is used to:<\/p>\n
