1. SolidWorks ® and SteelWorks ® Reasons for a Synergy

2. AMV STEELWORKS THE FIRST SolidWorks Solution for Steel Construction AMV STEELWORKS: a tool for steel fabrication and erection, totally integrated in SolidWorks

3. ADVANTAGES OF AN ADD-IN One Interface – multiple Applications  Easy modeling, editing, management of steel components  Easy learning  Easy management of complex interdisciplinary projects JUST ONE ENVIRONMENT

4. SolidWorks and SteelWorks TOGETHER Reasons for a Synergy Main challenge: enhancing the capabilities of SolidWorks, with an optimized tool for steel structures Thus Reduced design times Dynamic & simultaneous teamwork Better results and profits

5. Steel Design with SteelWorks Points of Strength  Structural steel and mechanical and architectural components;  Management of full parametric models featuring mechanical and structural steel;  Multiple users working on the same SolidWorks model;  Model analysis and generation of drawings.

6. Steel Design Let’s take an Example LITE

7. Steel Design Let’s make it FASTER From Here To Here Up to 4 times FASTER with SteelWorks LITE

8. Steel Design Let’s COMPARE With 1.Insert the plate using weldments 2.Create 2 planes for the stiffeners 3.Create the sketch for stiffeners 4.Extrude the first stiffener 5.Extrude the second stiffener 6.Create the Bolt sketch 7.Toolbox – insert bolt 8.Toolbox – insert 2 washers 9.Toolbox – insert nut 10.Make a pattern for the Bolts 11.Create holes

9. Steel Design Let’s COMPARE With 1.Insert End Plate 2.Insert 2 stiffeners 3.Create the bolt sketch 4.Insert the bolted connection LITE JUST 4 OPERATIONS TO PERFORM

10. Steel Design Reasons for a Synergy  Up to 4 Times FASTER  Model automatically organised into assemblies and parts  Automatically managed Mates  Automatic Bolt assembling  Automatic hole insertion in REAL TIME

11. SolidWorks and SteelWorks Reasons for a Synergy MAKES SOLIDWORKS: STRONGER MORE POWERFUL MORE FLEXIBLE

12. SolidWorks and SteelWorks Reasons for a Synergy A STRONGER SOLIDWORKS:  more competitive on the market: new scenarios in the steel industry;  more appealing: a specific add-in at a low price.

13. SolidWorks and SteelWorks Reasons for a Synergy A MORE POWERFUL SOLIDWORKS:  more functions and areas of application with no need to learn to use a new application;  Guarantee to perform specific operations faster and reliably.

14. SolidWorks and SteelWorks Reasons for a Synergy A MORE FLEXIBLE SOLIDWORKS:  Approach new customers or refine the approach to existing ones;  Embrace a wider sector of the industry and satisfy specific needs.

15. 3D Modelling Structural Analysis Detailing BOM Production Job Sharing SolidWorks and SteelWorks Enhancing present Capabilities Job Exchange
