SolidWorks Corporation unveiled SolidWorks 2007, the newest and most powerful version of the #1 3D mechanical
design software it has been shipping to the mainstream market for nearly a decade. SolidWorks 2007 features a host
of new and unique capabilities to help designers and engineers bring better products more quickly to market,
and to more easily transition from 2D to 3D design.
Included in SolidWorks 2007 are a multitude of improvements that simplify, accelerate, and integrate design engineering work, including:
* an exponential increase in performance;
* new user productivity tools such as Smart Components;
* new features for consumer product, sheet metal, and machine designers, such as Mounting Bosses, Snap Hooks, and Vents;
* new mainstream design validation capabilities that put sophisticated analysis in the hands of designers;
* innovations that significantly ease the migration from 2D to 3D design, such as 3D Drawing View and Design Checker,
as well as enhancements to the DWG Series (Editor, Gateway, Viewer); and
* enhancements in SolidWorks Office Premium that empower design engineers across the entire spectrum of their activities.
