SOLIDWORKS Premium - Perpetual

SOLIDWORKS Premium Offer (Perpetual)

This product is for the Perpetual licence of Solidworks Premium. This allows access to SOLIDWORKS Premium only. This product includes 1 year of maintenance, which gives access to all maintenance and version upgrades for 12 months after the purchase of your subscription. Please see the options below if you would like a subscription or a different version.

What's Included In SOLIDWORKS Premium (Perpetual)

SOLIDWORKS Premium gives you all the tools included in both SOLIDWORKS Standard and SOLIDWORKS Professional, plus more advanced features. SOLIDWORKS Standard and Professional give you part & assembly modelling, 2D drawing, rapid CAM programming, design review tools, filetype translators, an XR Exporter, CAD Libraries, photorealistic rendering, cost estimation tools, point cloud to 3D, tolerance analysis, and more. View our page here for full details on SOLIDWORKS Standard or SOLIDWORKS Professional. With SOLIDWORKS Premium, those tools are expanded and you get access to everything below as well.

Derived Format Converter

The Derived Format Converter for SOLIDWORKS takes the exact geometry in .SLDPRT and .SLDASM files and provides data for use in other 3DEXPERIENCE modelling and simulation apps such as DELMIA and SIMULIA.

New In SOLIDWORKS 2025

The new features in SOLIDWORKS 2025 aim to improve time-to-market through collaboration tools, better data management and advanced modelling tools. Here are some of our favourite updates in SOLIDWORKS 2025.

Parts

• Chamfers - New selection accelerator for Chamfers.
• Rollback Bar - Delete items below the Rollback Bar in the FeatureManager design tree
• Variable Fillet Chain - Smoothly integrate the radius parameters with continuous edge blend options.
• Sheet Metal Bend Notch - Added option to automatically create customisable bend notches on a sheet metal part's flat pattern bend line..
• Pattern Reference Geometry - Option to pattern reference geometry such as planes and axes. Also, leverage linear patterns to create planes and axes easily.

Assemblies

• Copy Assembly Components - Copy components with their associated advanced and mechanical mates
• Interference Checking for Surface Bodies - Detect intersections between solids and surfaces, and between just surfaces.
• Interference Detection in LDR - Check the manufacturability of your design faster with interference detection in Large Design Review (LDR) mode.
• Switch Between LDR & Edit Mode - Start editing straight away without having to preselect to go into LDR Edit mode.

Drawings

• Multi-Approval Stamps - Enforce company rules with multi-approval stamps on drawings anytime, on any connected device
• BOM Quantity Override for Detailed Cut Lists - Gain more flexibility for detailed cut lists that appear in a BOM table. In the bill of materials PropertyManager, you can choose an option to display the quantity for structural members in the BOM table as QUANTITY or LENGTH x QUANTITY using a new option.
• Surface Finish Symbols - Ensure standardisation with the ability to create surface finish symbols in compliance with ISO 21920

3D Dimensioning and Tolerancing

• Create DimXpert Dimensions From Sketch Dimensions - Use the intelligence built into sketches to automatically define model-based dimensions.
• Dimension Support for Drafted Features - Easily document and define drafted features with dimensions and tolerances using new DimXpert capabilities.
• 3D Interconnect STEP 242 Export Controls - Communicate product manufacturing information (PMI) downstream with increased flexibility and control with new STEP 242 export settings..

Electrical & Pipe Routing

• Create Improved Harness Board Drawings From 3D Routes - Harness board drawing enhancements include improved autoplacement of tables, dimensions, balloons, and formats.
• Slack Percentage Can Now Be Document- and Segment Specific Route - Assign a slack percentage to documents and routes to enable planning extra wire/cable lengths for manufacturing..

ECAD – MCAD Collaboration

• CircuitWorks for All SOLIDWORKS Roles -Gain unrestricted access to CircuitWorks and greater flexibility in circuit board design workflows.
• Support Board Outline and Cutouts Modification - Make board modifications from either the MCAD side or the ECAD side, and the other party can accept or reject changes. Modify the PCB’s outline to suggest changes to both MCAD and ECAD, enabling a bidirectional collaboration that streamlines ECAD and MCAD design.
• Copper Trace Support for ECAD-MCAD in SOLIDWORKS - CircuitWorks now processes copper trace data from ECAD to SOLIDWORKS, resulting in an accurate materials stackup in the printed circuit board.

Rendering

• Automate Rendering - Automate the creation of photorealistic renderings by leveraging SOLIDWORKS Visualize with the SOLIDWORKS API.
• Physically Based Rendering (DSPBR) Engine - Take advantage of the latest advancements in GPU technology with real-time, interactive ray tracing based on the open-standard Vulkan API for 3D graphics and computing..
• File Export Formats - glTF File Formats Support the Exporting of DSPBR Appearance Parameters

Performance

• Rapid Part Simplification - Harness board drawing enhancements include improved autoplacement of tables, dimensions, balloons, and formats.
• SpeedPak Configuration at the Top Level of an Assembly - Simplify assemblies faster and more flexibly with the ability to create a SpeedPak configuration at the top level of the assembly without the need to modify subassemblies.
• Faster Assembly Mass Property Calculations - Speed up the calculation of mass properties for assemblies with previously calculated values for parts and bodies.

Collaboration & Data Management

• Access 3DSwym From MySession Task Pane Connect and collaborate easily with industry peers by accessing 3DSwym communities directly from inside SOLIDWORKS in the MySession panel..
• Notify Users If the Local Cache Is Out of Date Stay up-to-date with real-time notifications, ensuring you always work with the latest file versions during the collaborative design process.
• Notify Users If the Local Cache Is Out of Date Stay up-to-date with real-time notifications, ensuring you always work with the latest file versions during the collaborative design process.
