SOLIDWORKS MBD Standard
Overview
SOLIDWORKS MBD helps you to define PMI directly in 3D and organize your data into clean and structured 3D presentations. You can customize 3D output templates and publish 3D output and other widely accepted file formats (i.e. eDrawings and 3D PDF). SOLIDWORKS MBD helps ensure you comply with industry standards and file formats. It also allows you to share and archive intuitive 3D data easily. With SOLIDWORKS MBD, you don't have to leave the 3D design space to make 2D drawings. MBD integrates with SOLIDWORKS, speeding cycle time, cutting quoting time and reducing errors. All 3D PMI and Views are also available for 2D use. Users can also toggle annotations on and off for clean 3D presentations with a variety of views.
Capabilities
Capture complete product data, including title block and BOM information, in multiple 3D Views that can be easily exported to industry standard formats:
Present in 3D
Define PMI data as dimensions, tolerances, model data, surface finish, weld symbols, Bill-of-Materials (BOM), tables, notes, and other annotations
Customize 3D Output
Customize templates for multiple deliverables [such as engineering drawings and request for quote (RFQ)], and departments [such as Operations, Manufacturing, QA, and Procurement].
Support Standards
Support industry standards, such as Military-Standard-31000A, ASME Y14.41, ISO 16792, and DIN ISO 16792.
Publish in 3D
Publish 3D data and PMI in industry standard file formats, such as a SOLIDWORKS model, 3D PDF or an eDrawing®.
Share, archive, and reuse intelligent 3D data
SOLIDWORKS MBD helps you directly share, archive, and reuse intelligent 3D data including geometry, PMI, views, and data so that you and your suppliers don’t have to waste the time creating traditional 2D drawings.
Comply with industry standards
SOLIDWORKS MBD helps companies comply with predominant industry standards, such as MIL-STD-31000A, ASME Y14.41, ISO 16792, DIN ISO 16792, and GB/T 24734. Compliance gives you competitive advantages to win more contracts and deliver projects to strict requirements, on time, and on budget.
Features
SOLIDWORKS MBD (Model Based Definition) is an integrated drawingless manufacturing solution for SOLIDWORKS. SOLIDWORKS MBD guides the manufacturing process directly in 3D instead of using traditional 2D drawings, which helps streamline production, cut cycle time, reduce errors, and support industry standards.
- Define 3D Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) such as dimensions, tolerances, model data, surface finish, weld symbols, Bill-of-Materials (BOM), tables, notes, and other annotations.
- Organize 3D PMI along with the 3D models in a clean, structured, and easy-to-search fashion.
- Customize 3D output templates for multiple deliverables [such as engineering drawings and request for quote (RFQ)], and departments [such as Operations, Manufacturing, QA, and Procurement].
- Publish 3D data and PMI in industry standard file formats, such as 3D PDF and eDrawings®.
- Support industry standards, such as Military-Standard-31000A, ASME Y14.41, ISO 16792, and DIN ISO 16792.
- Share and archive 3D data directly to free time for you and your suppliers for re-modeling based on 2D drawings
