The FW offers integration for Solidworks so all parts and materials that are available in the FW can be used in Solidworks. This integration consists of the following:
- Drawing Templates
- Material Database
- Weldment Profiles
- Toolbox
Drawing Templates
The Drawing Templates are template files for parts and assemblies as well as technical drawings. The templates contain many presets, making it easy to create technical drawings that comply with various ISO standards. The Title Block also contains several important fields that can be filled in.
Material Database
The Material Database contains all material types that are available in the FW. These are all metals/plastics that can be used for turning/milling, but also the standard available materials for laser cutting and 3D printing.
Weldment Profiles
Using the Weldment Profiles frames can be designed easily. The FW integration contains all profiles that are available in the FW, as well as several frequently used extrusion profiles. The latter are not available in the FW, but can still be used conveniently in the design.
Toolbox
The Toolbox contains a large amount of standard components such as bolts or bearings. The FW Toolbox contains all parts that are installed in the standard Solidworks Toolbox, however all parts that are standardly available in the FW have also been added in a separate folder.
Installing the FW integration
How to install the FW integration is explained in this document.
