New SolidWorks Solution Partners

By DE Editors

Multiphysics simulation software developer COMSOL (Burlington, MA) and rendering technology developer Next Limit Technologies (Madrid, Spain) have been named SolidWorks Solution Partners.

The SolidWorks Solution Partner Programs, says SolidWorks, provide its users with access to integrated products and services that can further maximize productivity. Companies comprising the Solution Partner program offer a full range of products and services that complement the use of SolidWorks 3D software. For more details on the program, click here.

COMSOL Multiphysics software includes a SolidWorks Live Connection feature in its CAD Import Module. This live connection enables a bidirectional link through which users can modify geometry in the SolidWorks environment and automatically transfer these changes to a linked multiphysics model based on that geometry. Because the link is bidirectional, you can also initiate geometry changes from within COMSOL Multiphysics. For further details about COMSOL Multiphysics, click here.

Maxwell Render from Next Limit provides engineers, scientists, and graphics mavens with what the company calls “the next generation in rendering technology.“ A high-end rendering engine, Maxwell Render is based on the physical equations that govern light. Its algorithms and equations reproduce the behavior of light in a completely accurate way, according to the company. This, in turn, enables users to digitally create highly accurate imagery of real-world objects and phenomena. For further information, visit the Next Limit technologies website.
