SOLIDWORKS 2017 is the 24th annual release of CAD (MCAD, ECAD), simulation, data management and collaboration tools that delivers the power our users need to drive innovation. In this release, 90 percent of the enhancements are driven by user feedback. Thank you to all SOLIDWORKS users worldwide who invited us into your companies, provided feedback in forums, wrote email suggestions and helped us create SOLIDWORKS 2017.
This year, you will find more than 250 new features and enhancements in CAD alone with a total of 520 new enhancements spread across all products. Beyond improving day-to-day productivity, approximately 20 percent of those involve new innovations. There are many core CAD enhancements such as variable Chamfer, super features that convert Chamfer to a Fillet for flexible modeling, advanced hole, enhancements to import mesh files, wrap feature, offset surface, better placement of components while mating that can deliver up to 5X in performance improvements over SOLIDWORKS 2016.Magnetic mates with speedpack enhancements makes it fast and easy to manage large modular assemblies. The list for CAD is long and it is best to take a look at what’s new or attend your reseller’s 2017 launch event for a deeper dive.
Like CAD, there are many innovations in simulation with advanced nonlinear (arc length control), better visualization of hot spots, etc. There are over 100 enhancements in SOLIDWORKS Electrical alone. Extending the ECAD ecosystem, we are introducing SOLIDWORKS PCB powered by Altium, and SOLIDWORKS 2017 is the first full major release for SOLIDWORKS PCB. Now, customers like Myomo can design its full system from PCB boards to electrical wiring, to mechanical and simulation of its connected device in a single environment. The best-in-class collaboration between mechanical, electrical and PCB engineers allows SOLIDWORKs customers to decrease development costs, significantly improve time to market and reduce the number of prototypes and errors.
New in SOLIDWORKS 2017 is Term Licensing in additional to perpetual licensing model. This allows SOLIDWORKS customers to scale on demand, purchase from OPEX budget and entrepreneurs and startups to design in SOLIDWORKS while getting a Term License. The customers will have full flexibility – they can purchase SOLIDWORKS as Perpetual or a quarterly/annual Term License options. With SOLIDWORKS 2017, CAD and Structural Simulation products are delivered as a Term License option with very attractive pricing options. The rest of the product line will be available as Term License sequentially in future releases.
~ What's new ~
With more core power and performance, and new capabilities for emerging technologies, it’s never been easier to design and create with SOLIDWORKS®, the design and development solution
chosen by more than 3.1 million users worldwide. Here is a sampling of the new key features to help improve your workflow.
INNOVATE – New capabilities to help you incorporate emerging technologies
DESIGN – More core power and performance to get your job done faster
VALIDATE – Greater design ideas that lead to breakthrough innovations
COLLABORATE – Unlock any 3D model to work with
SOLIDWORKSBUILD & MANAGE – Data integration from concept to manufacturing to drive business needs
- Multiple Locked Concentric Mates : In assemblies with multiple locked concentric mates, the software might erroneously report the mates as over-defined. You can fix the problem
by selectively unlocking affected concentric mates. If a component that was fully-constrained becomes under-constrained, it may be necessary to change which concentric mate is locked.
- SOLIDWORKS PCB : The SOLIDWORKS PCB user interface is now also available in Japanese.
OS: Windows 7 SP1/8.1/10 x64
Windows x32 and Windows XP / Vista / 7 SP0 / 8 - not supported
