MC-SOLIDWORKS Integration (MC-SWTran)

basic information

This is a collaboration tool between the domestic bestselling 2D CAD 'MICRO CADAM' and the highly regarded 3D CAD 'SOLIDWORKS.' It contributes to the efficiency of design work by enabling the creation of 3D models using MICRO CADAM drawings and the functionality to generate MICRO CADAM drawings from 3D models and 3D drawings. 【MICRO CADAM TIKI (Try It, Know It)】 This is a free trial service that allows you to experience the latest version of MICRO CADAM Helix and appreciate its benefits. Starting with MC-SWTran, we offer learning materials for beginners of MICRO CADAM that can be accessed anytime at your convenience, as well as trial versions of tools for linking to other CAD data, all available for free by simply answering a short questionnaire. https://www.cad-solutions.co.jp/micro-cadam-helix/try-mctiki/

Detailed information

• 

  <SOLIDWORKS → MICRO CADAM Conversion> The conversion from SOLIDWORKS data to MICRO CADAM drawing data allows for both 3D to 2D conversion and 2D to 2D conversion. ● From 3D to 2D Create MICRO CADAM drawings by unfolding SOLIDWORKS parts or assemblies into three-view drawings (front, top, side). ● From 2D to 2D Convert SOLIDWORKS drawings to MICRO CADAM drawings. You can finely configure conversion options such as element colors, view scales, and annotation targets.

• 

  <MICRO CADAM → SOLIDWORKS Conversion> Elements in the MICRO CADAM drawing are projected onto the SOLIDWORKS (part) sketch. When importing drawing elements from MICRO CADAM into SOLIDWORKS, it is possible to create parametric 3D models using the converted elements directly, thanks to the option to automatically apply geometric constraints.

• 

  <Effectively finishing drawings using MC-SWTran> 2D drafting is done in MICRO CADAM, and after converting to SOLIDWORKS data, structural analysis and interference checks can be performed through 3D modeling. Additionally, after converting SOLIDWORKS data into MICRO CADAM drawings, detailed official drawings can be created using the precise drafting and output functions of MICRO CADAM Helix.

  "Utilizing the unique input device of MICRO CADAM that does not hinder design thinking in SOLIDWORKS" The "MICRO CADAM Helix Function Keyboard" (hereafter referred to as the Function Keyboard) is a lightweight and compact input device that connects via USB. By registering SOLIDWORKS commands and macros as actions on the keys of this device, it enhances operability and enables smooth drawing without interrupting the design thought process. When MICRO CADAM and SOLIDWORKS are running simultaneously, the Function Keyboard automatically recognizes the software through active window switching.
