What is SOLIDWORKS Composer?

Create clear technical documentation, assembly instructions, product manuals, and interactive content directly from your 3D CAD data. SOLIDWORKS Composer helps teams explain products, processes, and procedures with accurate visuals that stay connected to design changes.

SOLIDWORKS Composer is a technical communication tool that helps teams reuse 3D CAD data to create 2D and 3D graphical content for product documentation. It is used for manufacturing assembly instructions, product manuals, installation guides, service manuals, training material, marketing brochures, and sales bidding kits.

Because Composer works directly from 3D CAD data, documentation teams can begin creating content early in the design process. When the product design changes, Composer visuals can be updated with the latest geometry, metadata, BOM, and manufacturing information, helping documentation stay accurate and current.

Use this solution to help teams communicate product value before physical prototypes are ready. Khodiyar Infotech helps you select, deploy, and learn the right visualization or communication tools.

03What file formats can SOLIDWORKS MBD publish?

SOLIDWORKS MBD can publish model-based information in commonly used formats such as 3D PDF, eDrawings, and STEP 242. These formats help teams share 3D product data more clearly with manufacturing, quality, and supplier teams.

04Can SOLIDWORKS MBD help reduce drawing dependency?

Yes. SOLIDWORKS MBD helps companies move toward drawingless or drawing-reduced workflows by allowing key manufacturing details to be attached directly to the 3D model.

05Does SOLIDWORKS MBD support inspection documentation?

Yes. SOLIDWORKS MBD supports model-based documentation that can be used for manufacturing specifications, RFQs, and incoming inspection reports through customizable publishing templates.

06Is SOLIDWORKS MBD useful for suppliers and vendors?

Yes. It helps suppliers and vendors understand design intent more clearly by sharing 3D models with dimensions, tolerances, notes, and manufacturing information included in the model-based file.

07Can SOLIDWORKS MBD be used with assemblies?

Yes. SOLIDWORKS MBD can be used to add and organize 3D annotations for both parts and assemblies, helping teams communicate product definition more clearly across design and manufacturing workflows.

08Can Khodiyar Infotech help with SOLIDWORKS MBD adoption?
