SolidWorks SWIFT technology

Brief introduction is well-known, 3D CAD brought breathtaking ingenuity for mechanical design engineers. However, the backside of this kind of ability is its complexity, the user must become expert ability to make full use of potential of this kind of design and ability. User of expert class CAD knows a lot of embedded secrets in its CAD system, normally also only these user ability make full use of quite the might of 3D CAD. In all CAD system, solidWorks initiate " expert " software tool market, it implemented the automation of basic function and common function not only, still can cogent solve design problem, resembling is to have what the CAD expert place of experience accomplishs most in that way. These tool a general designation are SWIFT (technology of SolidWorks intelligence feature) , its purpose is how do letting an user need not understand 3D CAD software work, make one introduction becomes all SolidWorks user the expert of this respect. Automatic transmission is no less than drive the novice provides safe safeguard, GPS is traveler navigation direction, solidWorks SWIFT also offerred unprecedented advantage for 3D CAD user. From at the beginning, solidWorks pays close attention to the demand of the user particularly, try to let them more time undertake designing, and how does less concern operate CAD system. No matter the professional level of the user how, undertake 3D spare parts is mixed a few helps need more or less when assembling body to build a model. Be based on this one concept, SWIFT technology emerge as the times require. The function of 3D reachs his to communicate the ability excel 2D that designs an intent, this is a fact that does not dispute. Use 3D, the user can build a model to all geometry body, and in 2D, cannot come true possibly sometimes build a model. Nevertheless, when involving sort of pair of spare parts feature, 3D also can encounter difficult problem, and almost all 3D CAD systems are put in such problem. To help an user, solidWorks rolled out the SWIFT function of expert class solely, handled a few designs that challenge sex provides most in 3D CAD domain successfully to operate. SWIFT can make all users, include those new hands that just turn to 3D from 2D, can undertake designing in that way like the expert, and need not have a good command of all function of whole system. Designing software to let an user spend less energy, and will more energy is used at innovation design, solidWorks thought up a lot of method, SWIFT is among them one of. The issue that we discuss the chronic illness that solves 3D CAD is the contradiction between function and complexity. The real power that 3D parameter turns entity to build a model depends on it can taking design intent, this is a kind of very main function, 2D CAD is impracticable. Catch design intent to conduce to the inevitable change in managing a design, ensure proper design is single spare parts and assemble body component to be covered each other close. And should use this function, the user must master various 3D to establish modular command, detail and technical skill, and be when failure of all and other method still need to master lash-up method. In other words, the user always tries helplessly to handle the complexity with CAD system immanent oneself. Long-term since, this resembles the to visit a certain country or area syntactic regulation that the language must use over there study same. The intent of SWIFT technology and purpose are to resolve the contradiction between this kind of function and complexity. Software system itself has been developed very completely, all it is already acting using door (no matter be the novice, user that has certain experience or expert) " mastered " the great majority in 3D CAD is the hardest, most the function of take time. Use SWIFT, the user is OK preoccupied the design at wanting to finish and the design intent that want implementation, and need not be energy waste on the operation regulation of 3D CAD software. SWIFT includes a series of expert tools (in among them a few patent Shang Zaishen are asked) , use at diagnose and handling diagnostic order, cooperate, the problem such as draft impact and a few otherer difficult problem and operation. SWIFT includes 6 functions, can solve the complex problem that almost all user can encounter, can help an user disentomb the full power of SolidWorks. The automatic rehabilitate function when the user fails above all, we talk about diagnostic order. In system of most 3D CAD, the user is to pass compose to build a series of " feature " will construct of the spare parts. The compose that the feature is regarded to be a spare parts is built piece. It can be to be located in on-line of spare parts edge to pour horn or round wine cup, also can be cubic (the square of drawing) or cylinder (the circle of drawing) . Previously, can mirror its to found the 3D design of real intent, user must tread lightly founds spare parts feature (if unplug model or round horn) ordinal. For example, if one designed personnel to make a cube, make round part on all foul line next, he cannot be added on cubic straight wall again unplug modular angle. He must know how be answered retreat spare parts history, go back arrives the circumstance before making round part, undertake unplugging to the wall next model. This is a very simple give typical examples. You can imagine this problem may become much more complex. Say for example, you need to be added to wall of mobile phone crust unplug model. Traditional 3D CAD system asks the user must understand professional technology, answer for instance the history that removes spare parts model and insert a feature. Normally, all professional technologies that new user needs ability of grind a few months to master efficient work place to need. The SWIFT FeatureXpert in SolidWorks changed all these. If the user tries to found a need to design a process in the spare parts inchoate insertion feature (if unplug model or round horn) , featureXpert will be automatic judgement needs to execute what operation and the feature new sort arrives the proper place of model history. Such, the user can enter job of below one design directly, and need not try to define program of a lash-up for CAD system. FeatureXpert generates round horn and the user that unplug difficulty is encountered when the model to those is in especially helpful. Normally, make a circle to the spare parts horn and undertake unplugging the model is very heavy work. What a lot of CAD products use law of trial and error to achieve a trait is correct mix in group sort. But in SolidWorks, if the user is in round horn or it is difficult to unplug modular feature respect is encountered, featureXpert will be automatic repair this problem. FeatureXpert builds fourth contact part automatically sometimes, when making round part to the spare parts, the user must disclose round part different group. Same, the order that adds round part is very important also. This is mixed to the novice is very complex for the user that has experience. The FilletXpert function that FeatureXpert has can help you solve these problems. Move to run a circle besides the spare parts of two round horn horn and unplug model besides FeatureXpert, filletXpert and DraftXpert also can help user government round horn and unplug model. The many round actor that the user can choose a spare parts to go up at the same time or unplug model, divide an operation to its undertake changing or moving next. After pitch on, round horn and in unplugging the model will add list of a gather, such, check look more intuitionistic, management rises more convenient also. To provide a help further, draftXpert still includes to unplug the model analyses a function compositively. The attempt will unplug modular application arrives when the spare parts, as a result of photograph adjacent feature (the horn that be like a circle) reason, can appear sometimes cannot found unplug modular circumstance. Below this kind of circumstance, you can activation FeatureXpert, how be opposite certainly unplug the model is new sort, can be in thereby do not move found below the condition that removes other feature unplug model. Unplug finally modular spare parts, featureXpert will unplug new sort goes to the model before round horn, the settles dimension conflict SWIFT automatically to handle draft way when this round character trait restricted those who unplug model is asked for to establish scale section and the pattern that its handle a feature are similar. In 2D system, the section plane of scale is defined via often can appearing or owe the circumstance of the definition. No matter which kinds of circumstance is met,the error is caused when production spare parts. Parameter changes 3D to built modular system to add important measure and geometrical significance to the linear, circular arc that founds in draft and 2D appearance, so that catch a design,intent and transmission design are changed. Sometimes, the measure that as a result of the dimension that the user adds place of over definition draft requires, make their draft is tagged too. Previously, the user must stop, the hand is moved solve these problems, just can continue design next. This process is process of a trial and error normally, need expenditure a few minutes to just can solve a problem sometimes to complex draft. In designing a process, time often is expended so namely. These are CAD system issues, is not design project issue. However, use SWIFT SketchXpert, the user resolves all conflict that encounter when scale draft OK and easily, quickly. If some draft cannot be begged to solve, sketchXpert can diagnose a problem and offer a series of solutions to the user, the user can use these solutions to move to be mixed except redundant dimension needless relation. Use SketchXpert, the user can solve draft problem quickly. SketchXpert can indicate the conflict in draft dimension and geometrical relation not only, still offerred the solution that is used at handle and resolving these conflict. To the new user of SolidWorks, sketchXpert especially useful, because it can make these users are between a series of possible solutions switch, next the solution that they want to choose to like most only is OK. And the user that has experience also can discover SketchXpert is very useful, because it was saved,solve the time that draft conflict place expends. The user that has experience also can discover SketchXpert is very useful, because it was saved,solve the time that draft conflict place expends. When cooperating component solve automatically assemble body conflict SolidWorks to still use SWIFT technology to solve cooperate difficult problem, namely, all sorts of component in 3D design are the combination in how assembling system. Cooperate to dominate the niche of component not only, the athletic fashion that still controls the machine that comprises by component, the campaign that includes single component already, also include the campaign of whole apparatus. Cooperate to be when fixed position component, the freedom that also can limit movement is spent. After adding a part, the user cannot be informed what component to cooperate together normally and assorted means. Below this kind of circumstance, of some one new component new cooperate to be able to create the conflict with inextricability system sometimes. Use SWIFT MateXpert, the user can understand easily, solve and eliminate to coordinate conflict case. MateXpert pays close attention to the component that cooperates conflict to involve only, depart these problems thereby. Such, user can along cooperate catenary to solve coordinate an issue, till discover,do not need cooperate. Use MateXpert, the user is OK from the benefit in cooperating a function, and need not have a good command of how does CAD system resolve conflict. MateXpert is offerred those who the problem cooperates is intuitionistic show -- the user is OK problem of immediate in graphical window repair. MateXpert can help an user understand mismatch and warning, in indicating the graphical window that the problem cooperates clearly, this tool displays the label of red and yellow with direct way. In the label around meeting shows the icon that is used at solve or be being deleted to cooperate, accordingly you looked at screen to go all the time. The project icon that ground of automatic, intelligence is you notes dimension to be in any CAD systems, be production process to use measure is easier. Difficulty depends on, how ensure these measure are true and can provide the enough information that place of production spare parts wants. Previously, CAD system cannot implement this function at all. This one task is in by those normally the uses a respect actually to have rich experience design engineer of dimension will finish. But, SWIFT changed all these. SWIFT DimXpert can go to dimension application automatically on the feature that 2D project pursues medium, if open groove, round horn or array. The user is in in project attempt after choice geometry body, dimXpert will be automatic a when be label of body of place choosing geometry production feature specific type (namely, round horn, open groove, aperture, array) apply true measure to tag plan. DimXpert still handles the position of dimension and span, utmost ground reduced the hand of the user to move cleared operation. DimXpert uses the feature in SolidWorks to identify a function to identify production feature, like aperture, connect groove, round horn to wait. Dimension applies according to the standard that defines beforehand, the dimension that can ensure the diagnostic application that is specific type is correct thereby tags plan. The many example that DimXpert still can identify a feature have intelligence to them in group and tag its for array. Use DimXpert, you can undertake to the spare parts automatic measure is tagged. The size that DimXpert identifies a feature automatically and automatic application sets beforehand tags plan. The feature is in spare parts model what how found is not important. In fact, spare parts model may do not have what feature, and the geometrical system that DimXpert can identify a spare parts automatically to go up (if aperture, Kong Zhen is listed, groove, pour horn and round wine cup) , apply proper measure to tag plan for its. The size that DimXpert identifies a feature automatically and automatic application sets beforehand tags plan. DimXpert PropertyManager showed choice radical to allow dimension to tag option. DimXpert identifies aperture array automatically (although these features are not,found as array) the option that chooses according to place generates proper measure to tag plan. The v/arc be on the throne of an user Tom Cote of SolidWorks holds the position of CAD manager at the Morgan Construction company of Worcester (MA) / design engineer. This company is steel rolling equipment (need is many round horn and unplug model) make large cast. Apply SWIFT technology to make Tom benefit bandit shallow. He says, make a circle through be in horn and unplug new FeatureXpert is used when the model, he saved a large number of time, and need not resemble using method of trial and error in that way before again. Round horn and unplug modular order is mixed in group very crucial, decide very hard also normally, although have so to resembling Tom,also be such for the user of experience. Below a lot of circumstances, need costs a large number of time to decide round horn is mixed unplug proper order of the model and series series. The automation FeatureXpert function of use SWIFT, these jobs are much easier to him. Of course, the other staff in the branch also times touch is light, because they also do not need again,make a circle to casting spare parts hand to move horn and unplug model. This is one of give typical examples that how SolidWorks SWIFT technology helps an user resolve 3D CAD function and complexity contradiction only. Design a of project technology true breakthrough as 3D, SWIFT is far just did not realize commonly used operation automation is so simple. Engineer of design of SWIFT technology help was finished a few the most onerous, most take time and the job that nots matter from the point of some kind of angle. The job that leave makes full use of namely the powerful function of 3D CAD, and need not have any complex operations. Although great majority designs personnel to know very well function of 3D CAD software is powerful, but these users also may have been experienced, they must cost a large number of time to learn research this system ability discovers its are immanent advantage. In SolidWorks, have a lot of can let all SolidWorks user need not learn complex skill to be able to disentomb the technology of 3D CAD advantage, SWIFT is among them one of. In other words, SWIFT can reduce the energy that you expend on CAD tool, let you use more energy on the design. CNC Milling
