Overview
SOLIDWORKS MBD
SOLIDWORKS MBD is a powerful model-based definition solution that enables manufacturers to define, organize, and publish 3D Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) directly within the CAD environment. With enhanced support for STEP 242 and 3D PDF formats, plus improved semantic PMI accuracy and annotation control, the latest version streamlines documentation and eliminates the need for traditional 2D drawings. Fully integrated with SOLIDWORKS software, it helps reduce errors, cut production time, and comply with global standards like ASME Y14.41 and ISO 16792, making SOLIDWORKS MBD an essential tool for modern, drawingless manufacturing.
