The Top 10 New Features
in SOLIDWORKS 2019
THE BEST OF SOLIDWORKS 2019 RELEASE
1. NEW 3D TEXTURE TOOL
- Convert patterns from
     an image file into 3D geometry automatically
 - Output mesh geometry
     directly for downstream manufacturing processes
 - New slicer feature provides workflows to develop solid geometry from mesh models
 
2. IMPROVED EDITING WITH LARGE ASSEMBLY TOOLS
- Large Design Review
     (LDR) mode now supports a number of editing actions
 - Access and edit mates,
     add and remove components, and change configurations
 - While seeing excellent
     system performance, leverage magnetic mates and reference geometry for a
     quick layout of large facilities and plants
 
3. ENHANCED
GRAPHICAL PERFORMANCE
- SOLIDWORKS 2019 takes
     advantage of the latest graphics card technology for GPU processing of a
     graphical display
 - Manipulate large
     assemblies without experiencing delays or compromising visual quality.
 - Similar technology powers
     the new AI Denoiser in SOLIDWORKS Visualize
 
4.
MODEL-BASED DEFINITION (MBD) FOR SHEET METAL PARTS
- SOLIDWORKS MBD outputs
     now capture sheet metal bend notes, flat patterns, and bend tables
     (requires SOLIDWORKS MBD)
 - Assembly-level PMI is
     now available for all SOLIDWORKS users, and PMI for parts and assemblies
     can be imported into SOLIDWORKS Composer
 - Also allows secure
     password-protected 3D PDF creation with control over printing, copying and
 
5. IMPROVED
TOPOLOGY STUDY CONSTRAINTS FOR GENERATIVE DESIGN
- Perform
     generative part design considering strength, stiffness, and now frequency
     constraints
 - Design optimal geometry
     to meet product performance goals, with more input options
 - Leverage mesh modelling
     tools in SOLID- WORKS to prepare generative designs for additive
     manufacturing processes
 
6. ENHANCED
EDRAWINGS OUTPUT FORMATS
- eDrawings Viewer now
     includes measure, markup, comment capability
 - Improved performance,
     including support for GPU processing
 - eDrawings Pro enables
     direct export to 3D HTML, as well as formats to support AR/VR devices
 
7. DIRECT
3D MARKUP TOOLS
- Add markup and notes
     directly to your 3D model
 - Support for pen and
     touch interfaces for quick and natural design commenting
 - Markup views are saved
     with the file and are accessible to all members of your design community
 
8. NEW
CHAMFER AND FILLET CREATION OPTIONS
- Create partial chamfers and fillets along
     a portion of an edge
 - Control fillet and
     chamfer creation with handy graphical controls
 - Also in a part model,
     avoid errors by performing interference detection on multi-body parts
 
9. ENHANCED
MANUFACTURING EFFICIENCY WITH SOLIDWORKS CAM
- Define multiple
     manufacturing setups and take advantage of the power of configurations
 - More control of feed-in/out and hole
     start and end positions for machining operations
 - Manual adjustment of machining features
     using the “Move” command
 
10. REMOVED SECTION VIEWS IN
DRAWINGS
- Quickly create a section view at a slice
     through a model without needed construction geometry
 - Also in drawings, directly add GD&T
     and other tolerance information to dimension text
 - BOM exports include graphical preview
     images of part geometry for better communication
