Features

  • Automatically assembles multibody simulation model from SOLIDWORKS CAD assembly

  • Rigid subassemblies in SOLIDWORKS are converted into a single rigid body in Simscape Multibody.

  • Mass, inertia, and location of the part center of gravity automatically transferred to simulation model

  • Topology and constraints automatically transferred to simulation model

Benefits

  • Fewer iterations on mechanical design because requirements are accurate and consistent

  • Fewer mechanical prototypes because mistakes are caught earlier

  • Reduced system cost because components are not oversized

  • Less system downtime because integrated system is tested using virtual commissioning on a digital twin
