Traditional 2D drawings can be time consuming to create and manage, and technical drawings can be open to misinterpretation by the end user resulting in costly errors.

SOLIDWORKS MBD (Model Based Definition) is an integrated, drawingless manufacturing solution for SOLIDWORKS that helps you define, organise, and publish 3D Product Manufacturing Information into industry standard file formats such as 3D PDF and eDrawings.

With SOLIDWORKS MBD we have one file to create and manage, 3D is easy for the end user to understand, and the Product Manufacturing Information can be easily accessed downstream in a variety of formats.
