Have we ever imagined how many workman hours we lose in trying to Reuse the Data which is supposed to be saving the time and money instead of losing them? It includes time spent on,  Searching right version of the data among many file versions created by our team members.  Finding missing references of data.  Recreating the File/Folder structure.  Maintaining Filenames/Folder names. The losses may sum up nearly the savings we make from data reuse. Hence it needs a system that is as much effective as possible to ease the pain and improve the Return of Investment spent on maintaining and reusing the older project files. The system we are proposing for this data reuse is SOLIDWORKS Product Data Management. Being a proven data management solution, SOLIDWORKS PDM provides excellent data management and reuse tools like Search tools, copy tree, Branching and Merging. SOLIDWORKS PDM Search Tools: The initial time-consuming process in data reuse is r...

The Property Tab Builder is a stand-alone utility that you use to create a customized interface for entering properties into SOLIDWORKS files. Traditionally, designer's use to modify the drawing template to insert custom property such as Description, Part No, Material, it’s a manual method. so, designers have to modify the custom property or metadata on each time, simultaneously BOM creation is also manual which increases a run time and errors in BOM table. It's also delayed the release of entire project. Three ways to create a customized interface for property template. In the SOLIDWORKS software, on the Custom Properties tab in the Task Pane, click Create now. In the SOLIDWORKS software, on the SOLIDWORKS Resources tab of the Task Pane, click Property Tab Builder From the Windows Start menu, click All Programs > SOLIDWORKS version > SOLIDWORKS Tools > Property Tab Builder version. To create the property tab, you will need to first create a new fil...

Ever since its introduction in SOLIDWORKS 2010, Assembly Visualization has been a excellent tool to display components in an assembly based on different criteria using colors. Assembly Visualization can be used as an interactive BOM  in which you can see file name, quantity, mass, material, volume, density etc.,     ² Add colors to visualize the model property values. ² You can add new columns to show other properties of the model . Lets just add a new column to link SW-Material   ² You can sort the assembly visualization based on the properties in different columns . ² Another great option available inside Assembly Visualization is we can directly apply materials to parts. ² Use the Rollback bar to show only necessary components in Assembly Visualization ² Other Tree options   ² Starting fro m  SOLIDWORKS 2018, you can directly access Performance Analysis option inside Assembly V...

DDM for SOLIDWORKS           DDM is a low cost multi-CAD, PDM/PLM solution that’s easy to implement, easy to integrate and user-friendly, giving you a quick turnaround on your investment. We are changing perceptions of PDM & PLM Product Lifecycle Management & revision control of parts, models, drawings and office documents and even more solutions can capture through powerful Multi CAD data management with lowest cost. The main simple terms which focuses mainly on DDM like efficient implementation, fun and speed, configurable adaptability, multiple system collaborations and majorly on price". DDM Product Module DDM CAD [Editor] Whilst focusing on ease of use and keeping data management uncomplicated, DDM has an access to control and secure the data which is more powerful and built in tools.
