SOLIDWORKS Material
SOLIDWORKS 2021 provides more flexibility for controlling the material choice when inserting a part into another part, by adding new options in the Insert Part PropertyManager. After selecting the Insert Part command (Insert > Part), the Transfer section of the PropertyManager shows two options for…
Adding materials to all of your SOLIDWORKS parts is important. Not only is this useful for reference in Bill of Materials or Title Blocks, but you must have the proper density values applied to the model for accurate mass properties. Learn how using a SOLIDWORKS…
The Material dialog now includes a Search bar in SOLIDWORKS 2020. While it’s a subtle change, this can save you time when defining different materials in your model or SOLIDWORKS Simulation study. The search functionality will include results from the default SOLIDWORKS material databases as…
In SOLIDWORKS 2019, setting up sheet metal parts has become a bit easier, making it possible to automate bend allowance selection by linking materials & sheet metal parameters. With the use of custom materials, you can set the bend allowances to change based on a…
SOLIDWORKS comes pre-loaded with a great library of materials ranging from ABS Plastic to Zirconium. The information contained in each of these material library entries includes tensile strength, density and many more material properties that can be used by SOLIDWORKS and SOLIDWORKS Simulation. However what…
