Master the most complex engineering challenges with SOLIDWORKS Design Premium with Cloud Services. As the flagship tier of the SOLIDWORKS desktop suite, this package builds upon the Professional version by introducing advanced structural simulation, kinematic motion analysis, and dedicated routing tools for electrical wiring and piping systems. Fully integrated with the 3DEXPERIENCE® platform for secure, cloud-based data management, it delivers the ultimate end-to-end product development solution. For African enterprises, heavy machinery manufacturers, and advanced electromechanical innovators, this is the definitive infrastructure required to design, validate, and manage sophisticated products before a single physical part is manufactured.
Why Choose SOLIDWORKS Design Premium with Cloud Services?
Designing a physical product is only half the battle; validating that it will survive real-world conditions is where true engineering value lies. SOLIDWORKS Design Premium eliminates the guesswork. Instead of relying on expensive, iterative physical prototypes to test for failure, you can run linear static analysis and time-based motion simulations directly within your CAD environment. Combined with advanced routing for pipes, tubes, and wiring harnesses, it allows multi-disciplinary teams to design complete electromechanical systems flawlessly. With built-in Cloud Services, your entire team—whether in Lagos, Accra, or working remotely—can collaborate on these massive assemblies securely, without the friction of on-premise servers.
Core Features & Benefits
Structural Simulation & Validation: Conduct linear static analysis on parts and complex assemblies. Identify weak points, calculate stresses, and optimise material usage before manufacturing begins.
Time-Based Motion Analysis: Simulate the true kinematic and dynamic motion of your assemblies to ensure mechanisms function exactly as intended under real-world operating forces.
Electrical & Piping Routing: Automate the design and routing of electrical cables, wiring harnesses, and complex pipe/tube systems directly within your 3D mechanical assembly.
Advanced Surface Flattening: Easily flatten complex, non-developable 3D surfaces, essential for advanced sheet metal fabrication, textiles, and composite material manufacturing.
Everything in Professional: Includes photorealistic rendering (SOLIDWORKS Visualize), automated cost estimation, tolerance analysis (TolAnalyst), and reverse engineering (ScanTo3D).
Built-In Cloud Data Management: Automatically manage design revisions, track lifecycle states, and store heavy simulation files securely on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
Frictionless Web Collaboration: Share massive 3D models and simulation results via secure web links. Stakeholders can review, rotate, and mark up designs without needing a CAD license.
