These
lessons
give you an
introduction to the SOLIDWORKS Connected functionality
related to
the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
The lessons
are
particularly useful for those transitioning from SOLIDWORK Desktop to SOLIDWORKS Connected
or new
to the
the 3DEXPERIENCE
platform.
Differences between SOLIDWORKS Desktop and SOLIDWORKS
Connected
SOLIDWORKS Connected is a
full version of SOLIDWORKS that installs on your computer from the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and gives you access to all the
platform capabilities granted by your 3DEXPERIENCE role.
If you can model parts in SOLIDWORKS Desktop, you can model the same parts in
SOLIDWORKS Connected. The same modeling tools are available in both versions:
sweeps, lofts, surfacing, sheet metal, weldments, assembly tools, and more.
SOLIDWORKS Connected
works
the same way as SOLIDWORKS Desktop
except
for
a few differences in the user experience and how it handles files and
configurations. The differences let you share designs and collaborate with other
members of your team.
