Enables designers to focus on product innovation rather than learning simulation and analysis tools.

SolidWorks Simulation provides simple, accurate design analysis that leads to better products by giving designers a safety net for catching errors. Designers are free to innovate, secure in the knowledge that they won't pass costly mistakes down the line.

Complete integration with SolidWorks® 3D product design software means that SolidWorks Simulation users can perform design analysis, simulation and optimization directly from their SolidWorks user interface.

SolidWorks Simulation enables faster, less costly, and more optimized product development, as well as more in-depth examination of product performance than would ever be possible using even the most detailed prototypes. 

Available in the following packages, SolidWorks Simulation can be expanded as your analysis needs grow and change:

• SolidWorks Simulation - Fully embedded inside the SolidWorks interface, SolidWorks Simulation utilizes the SolidWorks FeatureManager® and many of the same mouse and keyboard commands, so anyone who can design a part in SolidWorks can analyze it without having to learn a new interface. SolidWorks Simulation contains the most
  frequently used design validation tools, offering stress, strain, and displacement analysis capabilities for both parts and assemblies at a very affordable price.

• Professional - SolidWorks Simulation Professional offers a wide spectrum of powerful tools to help engineers who are familiar with design validation concepts to perform virtual testing and analysis of parts and assemblies. Engineers who need more specific design analysis capabilities can use SolidWorks Simulation Professional to predict the physical behavior of practically any part or assembly under any loading condition.

• Premium - One of the most comprehensive and sophisticated finite element analysis packages available, SolidWorks Simulation Premium offers seasoned analysts a tremendous range of finite element analysis capabilities at a fraction of the cost of most high-end Finite Element Analysis (FEA) programs.
