SolidWorks Corporation today released SolidWorks 2008, the newest version of its leading 3D CAD software.
SolidWorks 2008 delivers a new intuitive, time-saving user interface (UI) as well as impressive 3D graphics, builds on the company's breakthrough SolidWorks Intelligent Feature Technology (SWIFT), accelerates better product design, and includes more advanced design analysis capabilities than any other CAD software.
With more than 250 user-requested enhancements, SolidWorks 2008 lets users concentrate on solving design challenges, not on using the software, and leverages existing designs to save time and ensure accuracy.
It also helps users improve their designs by providing feedback about quality and manufacturability up front.
"The SolidWorks 2008 UI is very slick with an even more intuitive feel," said beta user Josh A. Mings, interior engineer of Executive Aircraft Completions, Tulsa, Okla.
"You're more efficient because you have more opportunities to work on, in, and around the model in addition to the menu options.
Switching between documents is more efficient, too, because you can see what you're switching to before you actually do.
The more you experience it, the better SolidWorks 2008 gets."
