Hawk Ridge Systems has introduced HawkWare, a suite of productivity software tools that automate and optimize functionality in SolidWorks 3D Design Systems, the company said.

The solution is available in Standard and Professional editions. The Standard version is a series of free productivity software downloads which optimize four functional design elements in SolidWorks products. HawkWare Professional is a fee-based offering that provides advanced functionality for four features in SolidWorks Enterprise Product Data Management (PDM).

"We have a rich background in parametric design, and are always looking for new ways to improve the design experience for our SolidWorks community of engineers. We pride ourselves on innovation and creativity with our deep bench of Certified SolidWorks professionals and degreed mechanical engineers, so building HawkWare is just another example of sharing our know-how with our customers," said Dale Ford, COO of Hawk Ridge Systems.

HawkWare Standard includes tools to automate functionality in SolidWorks Enterprise PDM, including Variable Creator, Add References, Folder Creator and BOM Exporter (Bill of Materials). With HawkWare Professional, productivity tools for SolidWorks Enterprise PDM include Auto Document Number, Card Plus, Rollback to Last Revision, and Sync Card Variables.
