SOLIDWORKS MBD

Define, organize, and publish your 3D product and manufacturing information (PMI), including 3D model data, in industry-recognized file formats.

SOLIDWORKS MBD is a license of SOLIDWORKS that allows you to share product manufacturing information directly in 3D. You no longer need to go through traditional 2D drawing: use the 3D manufacturing process by directly integrating annotations, references, dimensions, surface conditions or even parts lists into your CAD project. With this solution, you can quickly and efficiently produce technical communication materials directly on your 3D model.

 

Downstream manufacturing processes such as tolerance analysis, machining and inspection are automated, reducing time to market. Data is published in common formats, such as eDrawings, STEP 242 and 3D PDF.

Why choose SOLIDWORKS MBD?

 

This information sharing solution brings you many benefits in the internal and external communication of your projects. With SOLIDWORKS MBD, you can:

 

    • Define your PMI directly in 3D, thus avoiding unnecessary expenses and limiting the time needed to produce 2D plans from your 3D models
    • Present your 3D data in a clear and structured way using multiple views and display settings: for example, you can rotate your design and intelligently show or hide 3D annotations.
    • Customize your 3D output models thanks to a complete panel of predefined models that you can personalize with folios or company logos, for example. Other elements such as viewports, 3D thumbnails, text descriptions or tables can be customized.
    • Edit and distribute your 3D data in existing processes by publishing your data in popular formats such as eDrawings, 3D PDF and STEP 242.
    • Share, archive and reuse your 3D data so you don’t waste time creating 2D plans.
    • Work with 2D views and paper printouts: SOLIDWORKS MBD seamlessly replaces existing 2D SOLIDWORKS plans. PMIs and views created in 3D can be immediately reused in 3D.
