#  Virtual Factory with SOLIDWORKS

**Optimize Layout, Flow, &amp; Throughput Before You Build**

Explore how virtual factory capabilities with SOLIDWORKS enable you to design, simulate, and optimize plant layouts and production systems in a fully virtual environment.

Most factories are designed in pieces—layouts in CAD, throughput in spreadsheets, and decisions made on assumptions. The result? Bottlenecks, excess WIP, and costly rework.

Watch now to see how to unify layout design and production simulation into a single digital environment. Learn how to model your factory, simulate real-world conditions, and make data-driven decisions that improve performance before changes ever hit the floor.

You’ll learn how to:

- Create and validate plant layouts in 3D
- Simulate throughput, flow, and constraints
- Identify and eliminate bottlenecks early
- Test multiple scenarios without disrupting production
