CADNexus' CAE Gateway provides a unified, bi-directional, and translation-free connection from SOLIDWORKS to diverse CAE tools, such as commercial simulation packages and in-house legacy/proprietary software, used for conceptual through detailed design and manufacturability.CADNexus' CAE Gateway provides export in several common preprocessor formats. The translation-free connectivity to CAD ensures minimal user intervention, requires no healing or repair, and can be incorporated into a fully automated process in most cases, saving significant engineering time and resources. The quality and resolution of the exported geometry can be easily controlled by the user to meet problem-specific requirements.In addition, CADNexus also provides advanced capability to implement custom formats, enhance the preprocessing functionality to manage attribute information, and build a fully automated SOLIDWORKS based design system.The enterprise version of the CADNexus CAE Gateway comes with a server that enables design collaboration and unparalleled flexibility for CAE applications that need on-demand access to the CAD services.
