DriveWorks for SOLIDWORKS
DriveWorks Design Automation
Your engineers already know the rules: how wide a panel can be, when a longer span needs a heavier post, which bracket goes with which size. We capture those rules in DriveWorks, so SOLIDWORKS models and drawings generate from each order instead of being redrawn by hand.
What the rules produce
- 3D models built from your own SOLIDWORKS parts and assemblies
- Drawings that update to the order’s dimensions and options
- Bills of materials, cut lists and CNC data from the same rules, so production builds what sales sold
- Quotation, covering letter and bill of materials from a finished configuration
How it works
- 1
Discovery: we learn your products, options, rules, pricing and how you quote today.
- 2
Rules & build: we capture the rules and prices in one place and set up the models, drawings and documents around them.
- 3
Launch: your team configures orders, and the documents route to the people who need them.
- 4
Support: we update options, rules and prices as your product line changes.
Which DriveWorks edition?
- DriveWorks Xpress is included with SOLIDWORKS and is a good way to try rules-based automation.
- DriveWorks Solo suits individual engineers who want to automate their own design work.
- DriveWorks Pro adds team-wide automation, CPQ and web integration.
We’ll help you pick based on who needs to configure products and where.
Connecting to your other systems
DriveWorks can pass data to CRM, ERP and PDM systems, so orders don’t have to be re-keyed. We look at what you use today during discovery and confirm what fits.
What we need from you
A conversation about what you make and how you quote it today. Price lists, spreadsheets and existing SOLIDWORKS models or drawings help, but you don’t need to have them organized first.
Where we work
Based in Ancaster, Ontario. We work with manufacturers across Hamilton, Niagara, Brant and Waterloo region, and the rest of Ontario.
