Design the Future of Movement with SOLIDWORKS

The transportation and mobility industry demands lightweight structures, safety-critical systems, and complex multi-domain assemblies — all under strict regulatory requirements. SOLIDWORKS gives transportation engineers a complete design platform to model, simulate, validate, and document, helping you bring safer and more efficient products to market faster.
Transportation engineers face unique multi-domain engineering challenges that demand more than conventional CAD tools can deliver.

Vehicles are built with mechanical systems, electrical systems, and fluid systems added together, in very tightly packaged assemblies making cross-domain coordination extraordinarily difficult.

Vehicles must have their weight reduced for fuel efficiency or EV range, while still adhering to very strict safety regulations. Reducing vehicle weight requires more than just insight, it requires digital validation.

The continuous iterations of designs via testing, suppliers input, and regulatory changes are difficult to manage without introducing errors throughout large assemblies.

The packaging and thermal management of batteries and routing of high voltage supplies require very close coordination of the mechanical and electrical engineering teams — something that many CAD systems are not very good at.

Components that operate under high stress, vibration, and temperature variation must be thoroughly validated prior to building any physical prototype.

Sharing design data securely between a large supplier network and maintaining version control is a constant challenge for transportation OEMs.
SOLIDWORKS delivers an integrated platform built for the demands of transportation and mobility engineering.

SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD has consolidated all aspects of design for mechanical, electrical, and fluid into one environment; this has eliminated errors in terms of connectivity and has minimised any costly rework.

Using SOLIDWORKS Simulation allows for structural Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Sizing Optimization; so you will always find the lightest design for your products, within the specified limits of safety, critical to ICEs and EVs.

Any changes made to the design propagate to all related parts (Parts, Assemblies, Drawings). With SOLIDWORKS Product Data Management (PDM), revision control and approval workflow is implemented for each change so that each is easily traced back.

SOLIDWORKS has made it possible to design the electrical routing, harness and thermal simulation components used when designing battery packs and electronics used when developing an electric vehicle to be able to validate these components prior to building your first prototype.

SOLIDWORKS has allowed you to carry out stress, fatigue, vibration and thermal analysis to enable you to reduce the physical testing cost of your SOLIDWORKS Program and to provide ease of obtaining regulatory approvals.

Through the use of SOLIDWORKS PDM, suppliers will have controlled access (via role based) to access approved design data to enhance your ability to maintain the integrity of your Intellectual Property (IP) rights as well as to eliminate confusion of multiple versions throughout your supply chain.
