Innova Systems product story

Sep 10, 2009
Innova Systems has announced the availability of Solidworks 2010.
This latest version of the Solidworks design software contains 200 new user-driven features that help designers and engineers work more efficiently and enable them to produce better results.
One new aspect of the latest version is Solidworks Sustainabilityxpress.
Solidworks Sustainabilityxpress helps users understand, in real-time, the environmental impact of their product design.
The function takes into consideration how and where materials are produced, how parts are manufactured and how products are used and disposed of.
Another feature of Solidworks 2010 is the DXF/DWG Property Manager, which can export sheet-metal files to .dxf or .dwg files, speeding up the creation of files for manufacturing operations.
The tool lets designers confirm and edit what will be contained in the export file so they can quickly remove unwanted items such as bend lines or the edges of countersunk holes.
Innova Systems will host a number of free Solidworks 2010 launch events in September, October and December.
During these events, Innova's expert design engineers will demonstrate how easy it can be to move from a traditional 2D design method to the more modern 3D design approach.
They will also be available to discuss the many new features of Solidworks 2010 and to address technical and other issues relating to engineering design.
Innova Systems will also exhibit Solidworks 2010 at the TCT design exhibition, to be held in Coventry from 20-21 October 2009.
