WORK FLOW EFFICIENCY
AUTOMATE YOUR WORKFLOW & COMPLETE PROJECTS FASTER
What portion of the workday is your design department free to spend on purely creative engineering work?
The remainder of their time is lost to ‘workflow friction’. This drudgery robs you of their success-creating imaginative work. These typical examples of drudgery can all be reduced permanently.
- File naming,
- Managing data,
- Maintaining and organizing cad files
- Tracking product versions in customer’s hands and
- Reworking confusing CAD models
FLAWLESSLY IMPLEMENT YOUR ADD-INS
PDM Standard & Pro
- Your vault must return more value than it costs to be considered successful. If you want all your working files controlled, the workflow fully in use, the templates coordinated and everyone employing it properly we can help you.
- If you’re scoping a big file cleanup job, use the free References Manager for SOLIDWORKS® utility
Toolbox
- This commonly-overlooked (or abandoned!) utility only needs to be implemented properly to provide you the promised benefits. If your assemblies require continuous hardware insertions, you can greatly profit from your team using Toolbox combined with supporting best practices.
Routing (Piping/Tubing/Electrical)
- This add-in can give great results, once it has been comprehensively set up. Your own company best practices can be designed to ensure Routing works best for your particular designs and drawing needs.
EFFORTLESS FILE NAMING
Robust engineering workflow requires unique file names but this consumes valuable discipline and time unless you have PDM Professional vault. If you’re working in Windows folders or PDM Standard you can still get the benefits of automated serial numbers using the AutoNumbering for SOLIDWORKS® add-in.
- bulletproof 6-digit sequential numbing
- maintains references when renaming files
- new, rename or Save as Copy
- produces numbers for other uses (i.e. configurations)
- blog article explaining sequential numbering system
- bespoke solutions for your own file name schemes
ORGANIZED SOLIDWORKS FILES
Do you have the job to optimize all your CAD files for Vault importation? Exactly how big is the upcoming job? How many:
- duplicates,
- broken references
- externally-references files
- references without a solution
- non-conforming file names?
- References Manager for SOLIDWORKS®
- Free Reporter trial version reports 10 results, totals all problem files and calculates the total work to repair
- Full Reporter version provides full reports of all problem files and speeds up the repair process by 30%, plus calculates the total work to repair
- Professional Version consulting repairs all files in one automated run of the program
MANAGED PRODUCT LIFECYCLE
Maintaining the lifecycle status and history of your distributed products can be done by installing expensive software, but until then these activities will disrupt your design team. This information can now be tracked efficiently by anyone using the visual CadOMap for SOLIDWORKS® and MindManager.
CONFIGURE REPETITIVE DESIGNS
If portions of your projects which are repetitive, you can unambiguously configure them using DriveWorksXpress merely by entering the values in a form. For complicated parts or full assemblies, have DriveWorks Solo do the job.
- Enter values and text into forms
- Instantly generate parts, assemblies , and drawings
- 4 jobs in 8 minutes, instead of in one day
