What is Robot Programmer?

Manufacturing and production solutions for connecting design data with machining, inspection, shop-floor programming, lean execution, factory planning, and robotics.

Robot Programmer is a SOLIDWORKS Manufacturing role that enables users to simulate, validate, and program robot tasks before implementing them on the shop floor. It helps teams automate repetitive operations, test robotic movements virtually, and reduce costly errors before production begins.Whether you are adding a collaborative robot to an existing process or building a fully automated workcell, Robot Programmer helps users reuse existing robot programs, validate robotic paths, and program robots offline without interrupting current production. It also connects with SOLIDWORKS and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform for a more integrated design-to-manufacturing workflow.

Use this solution to move from engineering data to production workflows with better accuracy and control. Khodiyar Infotech supports software selection, implementation, training, and manufacturing workflow guidance.

// 09 — Use Cases

Where SOLIDWORKS MBD is Commonly Used.

SOLIDWORKS MBD is used by teams that want to communicate manufacturing information directly through 3D models instead of depending only on traditional 2D drawings. It helps design, manufacturing, quality, and supplier teams work with clearer model-based product data.

Model-Based Manufacturing

Used by manufacturers who want to define dimensions, tolerances, notes, and production information directly on the 3D model for clearer downstream communication.

GD&T and PMI Communication

Helps engineering teams communicate product manufacturing information, datums, geometric tolerances, surface requirements, and critical annotations in a structured 3D format.

Supplier and RFQ Documentation

Useful for sharing manufacturing-ready 3D model data with suppliers, vendors, and RFQ teams using controlled templates and widely accepted output formats.

Inspection and Quality Planning

Supports quality teams by providing model-based dimensions, tolerances, and inspection-related information that can be used for incoming inspection and manufacturing validation.

Drawing Reduction Workflows

Used by companies that want to reduce dependency on large sets of 2D drawings and move toward a more efficient 3D documentation process.

Digital Manufacturing Communication

Helps teams publish and share model-based information using formats such as 3D PDF, eDrawings, and STEP 242 for better communication across departments and external partners.

// 10 — FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About SOLIDWORKS MBD.

Find answers to common questions about SOLIDWORKS MBD, including 3D annotations, model-based definition, publishing formats, manufacturing documentation, and how it supports clearer communication between design and production teams.

01What is SOLIDWORKS MBD used for?

SOLIDWORKS MBD is used to define, organize, and communicate manufacturing information directly inside the 3D model. It helps teams add dimensions, tolerances, datums, notes, BOMs, and annotations without relying only on separate 2D drawings.

02How is SOLIDWORKS MBD different from traditional 2D drawings?

Traditional workflows often require separate 2D drawings to communicate manufacturing details. SOLIDWORKS MBD allows teams to place important product and manufacturing information directly on the 3D model, making communication more visual and easier to interpret.

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?

Yes. Khodiyar Infotech can help your team understand SOLIDWORKS MBD capabilities, choose the right licensing option, and get guidance for using model-based definition in your design and manufacturing workflow.
