CircuitWorks

Developed by the same team that produced the IDF import functionality for SolidWorks 2005, CircuitWorks is a powerful, fully integrated bi-directional interface between SolidWorks and PCB Design systems. Running totally inside SolidWorks, CircuitWorks will read industry-standard IDF 2.0, IDF 3.0 or PADS files, and produce a SolidWorks Assembly of the PCB board fully populated with all of its components.
 
CircuitWorks will position component models onto the board to produce a very accurate assembly of the populated board. If a component model is not available in the part library, CircuitWorks will use the component footprint and extrude it to the given height to generate a component model for use in future. As well as producing an assembly of the board and its components, CircuitWorks also supports:

  • Board Cut-outs & Mounting Holes
  • Plated & Non-plated Holes

Placement Keepouts, Route Keepouts, Notes and Other Outlines.
 
Unlike CircuitWorks Lite included with SolidWorks 2005, CircuitWorks is fully bi-directional. Assemblies can be exported from SolidWorks as IDF 2.0 or IDF 3.0 files.  This export facility allows a SolidWorks user to sketch a board outline in the context of an assembly, and export it to IDF. This is ideal when the shape and size of the board is driven by packaging constraints. Once a populated board has been brought into SolidWorks, components can be moved and an IDF file written out showing the new component positions. CircuitWorks’ powerful filtering options can help simplify the models produced in SolidWorks. It is possible to filter out components by height, type, or board side – even to save predefined filter settings.
 
CircuitWorks IDF has been successfully proven with various systems including:-

  • Orcad
  • Mentor Graphics
  • Veribest
  • CADENCE Allegro
  • ACCEL P-CAD
  • PADS-pcb
  • Zuken-Redac Cadstar (requires additional translator at extra cost)

Elysium

DCADporter is a bi-directional data translator providing true interoperability between CAD programs. With CADporter, SolidWorks users can read and write CATIA, PRO/E and I-DEAS model files. Easy to operate—simply define the input and output files and the model file is automatically generated.

Does not require complex parameter settings. The program judges each setting in total.
CATIA to SOLIDWORKS:

Automatically generates SolidWorks model files from CATIA 3D models and displays them on SolidWorks.
 
SOLIDWORKS to CATIA:
Saves models created in SolidWorks as CATIA (*.model).
Plug-in for SolidWorks—CATIA is not required.
 
I-DEAS to SOLIDWORKS:
Automatically generates SolidWorks Parasolid files from I-DEAS models.
 
SOLIDWORKS to I-DEAS:
Displays models created in SolidWorks on I-DEAS.
Plug-in for I-DEAS—SolidWorks not required.
 
PRO/ENGINEER to SOLIDWORKS:
Automatically generates SolidWorks Parasolid files from PRO/ENGINEER files.
Plug-in for PRO/ENGINEER—SOLIDWORKS not required.
 
SOLIDWORKS to PRO/ENGINEER:
Automatically generates PRO/ENGINEER files from SOLIDWORKS Parasolid files.
