 Building a CAM application on an existing and widely accepted CAD product offers a lot of advantages. This is the reason why leading CAM companies such as SolidCAM and Cimtronics (CAMWorks) have chosen SolidWorks as development platform. This approach offers a lot of benefits to both developers as users.
The developers can focus on specific of CAM implementation instead of programming basic CAD functions required in their application. They simply call necessary functions using standard SolidWorks API. Users benefit from familiar user interface in one integrated environment. They can design CAD models and start CAM application to prepare 3D model for manufacturing without changing the working environment. There is no need to go to any other application to complete the work.

 LEUVEN, Belgium, February 12, 2010 - Capvidia presented the latest version of their FormatWorks Gold Certified product designed to smoothly import CAD models directly into SolidWorks at SolidWorks World 2010 in Anaheim. New enhancements for CATIA V5 translation and numerous workflows for dealing with all kinds of complex data translation were presented to the delight of many SolidWorks users and resellers.
FormatWorks allows users to import CAD models in formats not supported in SolidWorks (CATIA V4 or CATIA V5). Native CATIA files can be directly imported into SolidWorks easily using FormatWorks. It also provides a better translation of IGES and STEP models than SolidWorks direct import. The continued success of FormatWorks is related to its advanced repair and healing technology.

Capvidia - one of the partner sponsors of 2010 SIMULIA Customer Conference held in May 25-27, 2010 Rhode Island Convention Center, Providence, RI, will address the problems of Onset of Levitation in Thrust Bearing: FSI Study Using Abaqus-FlowVision Coupling. The problem of lift force formation in a thrust bearing of 800-tons rotor of electric power station is studied and solved numerically. Direct coupling between finite-element system Abaqus calculating stress and strain state of an bearing parts and finite-volume system FlowVision-HPC calculating oil flow in gap between a collar and a shoe of bearing is used. The shape of the gap between the shoe and the collar, the clearance value, the moment of the friction force, and the temperature distribution of oil over the clearance are determined. |

Many CAD data translation products offer simple CAD data conversion, which means the original model is simply converted into one of the formats supported by SolidWorks. The forming of a valid model (skin or solid) is left to SolidWorks and the user has limited control over this process. FormatWorks 2010 uses advanced repair & healing and communicates with SolidWorks over the native API interface to ensure perfect translation of the most complex CAD data into SolidWorks. |

Realistic CFD analysis on a full assembly
FlowVision HPC 3.07 version offers new capability for thermal analysis of electronic devices. The electronic devices such as mobile phones, lap-tops or PDA’ s consist of hundreds of parts defined as assembly structure in a CAD system. Complex geometry and assemblies have always been a major obstacle for engineering simulation using traditional meshing techniques. How does FlowVision deal with this problem?
