SOLIDWORKS MBD – Drawingless Manufacturing Made Simple
SOLIDWORKS MBD (Model-Based Definition) is a powerful solution that helps manufacturers move away from traditional 2D drawings by embedding product manufacturing information (PMI) directly into 3D CAD models. Whether you’re defining dimensions, tolerances, datums, or BOMs, SOLIDWORKS MBD makes it easy to organize and share clear, consistent documentation across teams—streamlining communication and reducing costly errors in production.
From product designers to marketing teams, anyone can use SOLIDWORKS Visualize to present ideas more effectively and cut down on the need for physical prototypes. It’s the ideal solution for visual storytelling at any stage of design.
Why choose SOLIDWORKS?
SOLIDWORKS is a powerful 3D CAD solution designed to streamline your product development process. From design to simulation and visualization, SOLIDWORKS offers an intuitive platform that helps engineers and designers bring ideas to life faster and more accurately. With advanced simulation tools and realistic 3D visualization, you can validate designs early and reduce costly errors. Whether you’re creating simple parts or complex assemblies, SOLIDWORKS delivers the performance and precision you need to stay ahead.
Here’s why thousands of engineers’ trust SOLIDWORKS MBD
- Clear 3D PMI
- Supports Industry Standards
- Lower Documentation Costs
- Elimination of 2D Drawings
Overview
SOLIDWORKS MBD
SOLIDWORKS MBD brings a modern, digital approach to manufacturing documentation. Instead of manually creating 2D drawings, teams can define and publish rich 3D annotations that travel along with the CAD file. The latest version supports enhanced STEP 242 export, semantic PMI, and more detailed annotation controls—enabling better clarity, accuracy, and compliance. With this tool, you can publish 3D PDFs that include model views, measurements, and other critical manufacturing data.
