Review on Parallel Pipes by Chad Carter

SolidWorks iModel - Great tool & resource

I like how this works for me. It has a lot of features which makes it easy to use. A good one for engineering workflows with many different steps but it can be difficult to pick up if you are new to 3D modeling software. I wish there were more tutorials on the software for new users. This is a great piece of software to have access to at your fingertips. I would recommend anyone that needs a quick and efficient way to create models in solidworks to give this a try first. The most helpful feature is the ability to transfer files between multiple programs such as cadence, solidworks, sketchup etc without having to rework all the geometry or models. We are solving complex problems by combining engineering analysis with rapid prototyping which gives us results faster than we expected.

Pros
  • It's relatively user friendly when using CADCAM
  • Efficiently creates an interface where engineers from various fields share ideas about design.
  • Has plenty useful application within product development process
Cons
  • Mostly okay, but...
