Get real-time pricing and design-for-manufacturing feedback from Xometry without leaving SOLIDWORKS.
First, we’ll take a step back to talk about SOLIDWORKS. This is a CAD software by Dassault Systèmes with professional-grade 3D design and product development tools to help engineers conceptualize, create, validate, communicate, manage designs from build to launch.
Xometry’s add-in for SOLIDWORKS can be downloaded directly from the Xometry website via an MSI Installer. It allows engineers and designers to purchase custom manufactured parts directly from within their CAD workspace. The Xometry add-in works by analyzing the geometry of a CAD design, then allows the user to select the material, process, and quantity to get an updated instant price and lead time. The access to competitive custom manufacturing quotes within SOLIDWORKS allows engineers and designers to get early manufacturing feedback and optimize designs for their price and timeline. Users can click to finalize and securely purchase their custom parts from Xometry online.
Direct integration with our Xometry Instant Quoting Engine℠, which is powered by advanced machine-learning algorithms, enables you to weigh the cost impact of design decisions by instantly pricing your parts in one integrated CAD workspace.
Xometry's CAD add-in for SOLIDWORKS displays design for manufacturing (DFM) feedback directly in the CAD environment, saving you valuable time in design optimization. Iterate on design features based on real-time feedback in your SOLIDWORKS workspace.
Order designs through Xometry in a wide range of manufacturing processes including eight types of 3D printing, CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, urethane casting, and injection molding. Configure materials, finishes, and other specifications to generate lead times.
Choose from thousands of possible combinations of materials, finishes, tolerances, markings, and certifications for your order.
Get your parts delivered right to your door without the hassle of sourcing, project management, logistics, or shipping.
