At the SolidWorks World 2015 conference, Dassault Systèmes launched SolidWorks Industrial Design, the second application on its 3DEXPERIENCE platform. This software, according to the company, offers significant social collaboration benefits through cloud-based capabilities.

The Industrial Design application provides a single modeling environment for the overall design process. It has transparent data management that eases issues with data incompatibility. Data storage in the cloud can be accessed from any point at anytime to share designs as well as save and evaluate concepts.

Features include concept sketching, integrated freeform and parametric surface/solid modeling, direct editing, realistic rendering and simplified design evolution tools. Users can also created complex shapes in 3D and add mechanical data directly into the model without changing environments.

“The needs of the CAD user community have been a beacon of technological innovation and we are committed to developing tools that respond to evolutions in the product design process, from a technical perspective as well as a collaborative one,” said Gian Paolo Bassi, CEO, SolidWorks, Dassault Systèmes. “With SolidWorks Industrial Design and our 3DEXPERIENCE platform, we want engineers to be able to rely on powerful, accessible technologies that facilitate their work and result in significant business advantages.”
