SolidWorks World Fulfils 15 years. Although this age, if it was the one of a human, would carry us to designate him teenager, is not the case for evento of this type. In this occasion can speak quietly of maturity. In all the areas related with the technology, in the last fifteen years can have occurred more things that in the 50 precedents. The SolidWorks World serve no only to learn, but also to give to know novelties. This year, the first day, have an official presentation: my.solidworks.com, and the announcement of a new product for inside few months: SolidWorks Mechanical Conceptual.

Bertrand Sicot

“Easier, simpler, faster” applied to the design is the equivalent of the “altius, citius, fortius”. Bertrand has remembered it to him once again to an audience of 4.500, that will take part in more than 280 technical conferences, and that will visit to more than 100 companies partners.

SolidWorks Arrived to the million of users four years ago, and in December of 2012 has bent the figure, with 25.000 schools teaching to use the product and 2,5 million students. A pair of pinceladas have remembered us that during the 2012 have presented SolidWorks plastics, SolidWorks Electrical, and the application and-Drawings for iPad.

According to Bertrand, is the place to the that it is necessary to go to “know it everything on SolidWorks”. It treats of a web realised using two technologies of Dassault Systèmes (designated ExaLead and NetVibes) for recopilar all the available information in the web related with SolidWorks. For the moment, it treats of information generated by the own company, but the aim is wider: something as well as compete with Google to order better the results of the research SolidWorks, with the preferences of personalised research for each user.

Bernard Charlès, general director of Dassault Systèmes, offers us his vision of future

Bernard has spoken of Dassault Systèmes and his products, with a special emphasis in the platform “3DExperience”, announced the past year. In this occasion, has referred to the same like a genuine platform, that will have products próximamente. It seems that there is a true change of definition of 3DExperience, in the steering to turn into it a base on which develop products, more than in an aggregated of the same (that it is what hints the own web of Dassault — http://www.3ds.com/3dexperience/ — that have visited to be safe that we had not misunderstood it).

In any case, the foci follow being in the collaboration and the mobility. A tableta has already an important power, and will have a lot of more in little time. The speed of the wireless communications grows to a comparable rhythm. Shortly, it will not be necessary to have a station of work of high range to do design 3D of high level. Besides, these devices will be using them virtually all the world. Bernard Charlès has it clear.

SolidWorks Mechanical Conceptual

The big announcement of today has been a new product, that will be available along the year, designated “SolidWorks Mechanical Conceptual”. According to Fielder Hiss, vice-president of gestión of products, that has done the presentation, 30% of the time devoted to the design employs in conceiving the artilugio designed. And the tools of design focalizan, up to now, in the another 70%: the detail.

The tool presented is complementary to the available products in the actuality. It allows to capture ideas digitally, create quickly models 3D of concept, obtain feedback of the groups of internal and external interest, and administer easily multiple concepts before devoting the time of engineering to build. It is thought to be tremendously easy to use.

Without going in in details, the aim is to capture ideas, communicate them and allow the collaboration in his. They use simultaneously a parametric design, the direct edition and the history. No only it matters the final design, but the process whereby arrives to the same. It does not save “ a file”, but they register all the steps that have driven to the result. No only it is important the destination, also is it the trip: a different form to focus the software.

The program is permanently connected to the database, to which are also connected the applications used by other people that collaborate in the same concept. The truth, has very good paints.

SolidWorks Mechanical Conceptual will test with a group reduced of customers in May, and expects that it was available from autumn.

Had not announced us those who went to be the “keynote speakers” of today. Between the assistants rumoreaba the presence of Felix Baumgartner. After James Cameron and Jim Lovell, had felt. It has not been exactly like this. In place to know to the saltador that has surpassed the speed of the sound without being inside a vehicle, have known to those who llevar the project, during five years, that comprised the design and construction of the globe of launching and the capsule in which it travelled Felix. Although I think that the majority of the assistants had seen before the videos of Felix jumping, the effect surprise still has not disappeared, and the breath contains by some seconds when seeing it again.
