As additive manufacturing continues to emerge in the medical sector, companies like Stratasys have developed advanced 3D printers and digital anatomy materials that replicate human bone and tissue characteristics. Surgeons use this technology for patient-specific pre-surgical practice—raising concerns about validating the accuracy of 3D printed anatomical models.
DriveWorks Data Management is a component of DriveWorks Pro that allows control over the data stored in a DriveWorks shared or individual group. With Data Management, users can directly control project files, CAD files, specifications, etc., which are being accessed by the other DriveWorks applications such as Administrator, Live, Autopilot, and User.
The foremost item to note about this migration is that the license software itself syncs with the SolidWorks Activation Server and directly checks the license out from the system. The process requires a transfer of the license off the old server back to the SolidWorks Activation Server before the new server will be able to be activated with the SolidWorks Activation Server and allowed to administer licenses to client machines.
Whether you’re using PDM Standard or PDM Professional, you can interact with SOLIDWORKS files in two ways: directly in the PDM vault or through the PDM Add-in fly-out panel in SOLIDWORKS. This interaction includes, but is not limited to: checking a file in and out, reviewing a file’s version and associated file versions, and getting previous versions of a file*.
On December 2, 2024, GoEngineer announced its partnership with Formlabs, a leader in 3D printing, to deliver the latest commercial and dental solutions in desktop SLA and SLS 3D printing across the U.S. and Canada.
As with any Windows-based program, sometimes database files, registry keys, dlls, or many other files can get lost, deleted, or corrupted; SOLIDWORKS is not immune to these problems. Fortunately, when these problems do arise, SOLIDWORKS has a built-in repair mechanism that can rewrite the program files and registry keys back to the original install state to help get you back up and running.
