These enhancements help provide an accelerated path to design freedom, increased efficiency, reduced total cost of operation, and gain competitive advantage for a range of applications and industries.<\/p>\n<p>The growth of additive manufacturing is contingent on optimising digital workflows and that begins with reimagining how software supports the process and corrects the core issues that pose significant challenges for designers. Until now, the design toolset available has been oriented for traditional manufacturing techniques, which has created barriers to digital manufacturing workflow optimisation. In addition, designers have faced demand for lighter weight parts and parts that possess complex geometries. 3D Systems\u2019 latest software solution addresses these challenges and unlocks new possibilities, including the ability to create more shapes in more ways.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSoftware is the foundation of transformative digital manufacturing solutions,\u201d said Radhika Krishnan, executive vice president, software, healthcare, &amp; digitisation, 3D Systems. \u201cLooking at our expertise and combining that with our end-to-end software portfolio solutions and the specific needs of SOLIDWORKS designers, we realised that we could help SOLIDWORKS users streamline their digital manufacturing workflows and gain competitive advantage in several ways such as adding design for additive manufacturing capabilities to their toolset with 3DXpert for SOLIDWORKS 15.\u00a0In addition, SOLIDWORKS users can accelerate their product design cycle and reduce the time \u2013 from hours to minutes &#8211; required to build CAD models of real-world objects using advanced scan-to SOLIDWORKS capabilities that are included in our Geomagic<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0for SOLIDWORKS solution.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--content-wysiwyg-text paragraph--view-mode--default\">\n<div class=\"field-wrapper field field-paragraph--field-text field-name-field-text field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\">\n<p>3DXpert for SOLIDWORKS\u00a0is an add-on for SOLIDWORKS, extending SOLIDWORKS\u2019 design capabilities with a complete DfAM toolset, equipping designers with everything they need to prepare and optimize their designs for 3D printing.<\/p>\n<p>3DXpert for SOLIDWORKS 15 further enhances the direct path from SOLIDWORKS to additive manufacturing\u00a0and enables users to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Shorten the design cycle with enhanced bi-directional data transfer:<\/strong>\u00a0Seamless bi-directional data transfer achieved with the click of a button \u2013 reducing time and effort while preserving data integrity.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optimize design structure with an enhanced lattice development suite:<\/strong>\u00a0Designers can now develop bespoke structures to capitalize on intellectual property, reduce costs and gain competitive advantage, in addition to using the rich library of predefined lattice structures.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Easily achieve successful prints with automated tools &amp; workflows:\u00a0<\/strong>A new power-supports capability fully automates support generation for multiple geometries with the click of a button.
