Description
SOLIDWORKS is a world-leading 3D design, CAD, and product development platform that has defined innovation for engineers and creators for over three decades. Built by Dassault Systèmes, it delivers a unified environment for design, simulation, documentation, and manufacturing—all with the goal of helping users bring ideas to life faster. The 2026 version marks a major leap forward with AI-powered automation, including selective loading for large assemblies, fastener recognition, and AURA AI, an intelligent design companion that boosts productivity. Deep integration with the 3DEXPERIENCE cloud ecosystem allows teams to collaborate securely, access designs anywhere, and connect real-time data from concept to production. With powerful simulation tools, electrical design integration, and streamlined workflows, SOLIDWORKS reduces manual effort and design iteration time dramatically. Its intuitive interface and broad compatibility make it ideal for both professionals and students. Trusted by innovators like Future Motion, Toyota, and Vermeer, SOLIDWORKS continues to shape the future of design and engineering. Whether you’re creating consumer products, vehicles, or complex machinery, it provides everything you need to go from idea to reality.
Description
realvirtual.io offers a Unity-based platform designed specifically for creating industrial digital twins and conducting virtual commissioning within the realms of machine and plant engineering. This innovative framework allows users to import their own CAD files from various formats such as STEP, SolidWorks, CATIA, and NX, while enabling the definition of kinematics like drives, sensors, and grippers without modifying the original model's geometry. Furthermore, it integrates real or simulated PLCs and robot controllers seamlessly into a single 3D model through over 15 native interfaces, including Siemens S7, Beckhoff TwinCAT/ADS, OPC UA, MQTT, EtherNet/IP, Fanuc, KUKA, and ABB. The platform comes with complete C# source code, eliminating concerns about black box operations and vendor lock-in, while delivering stunning visuals at 60 fps and maintaining costs significantly lower than traditional digital factory solutions. A single model can transition smoothly throughout various stages, from sales and engineering to virtual commissioning, 3D HMI, and operator training. For those interested, a free Starter edition is available on the Unity Asset Store, and the companion product, realvirtual WEB, which is open source and utilizes Three.js, enables the same model to be accessed from any browser with just one link, thus broadening accessibility and collaboration opportunities.
