The key, Jain says, is flexibility and “SOLIDWORKS is a pencil, we inspire users to write poetry.” Ed Gebo and Kishore Boyalakuntla at SOLIDWORKS World. Jain says that Materialise, Xometry, 3D Systems and Sculpteo are all offering services through Marketplace Make. Marketplace Make does not require – for now at least – vendors to enter an exclusive contract and service bureaus can still win business outside the platform. Making an analogy using fake news, Jain says, “fake news may be found on Google, but Wikipedia is more vetted,” SOLIDWORKS will ensure vendors are “verified and qualified”. To date over 50 service bureaux are using Marketplace Make says Suchit Jain, VP Strategy and Business Development. Gian Paolo Bassi and the 5 announcements from SOLIDWORKS World 2018. Marketplace Make will allow buyers to order 3D designs made by manufacturing service bureaus. The vision is to create the largest qualified eco-system of qualified vendors in manufacturing. Around the conference, and at events running into the evening this was the announcement that most people were talking about. The final announcement made by CEO Bassi, was the 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace Make service. An ABS 3D print made on the Sindoh 3DWOX 2X 3D printer. Sindoh are also exhibiting their 3D WOX range of FDM/FFF 3D printers, together with a forthcoming 3D printer with a substantially larger build volume. XDesign also has 3D printer manufacturer Sindoh among users, as the South Korea company are early partners for the cloud print service. Ed Gebo, an Engineer and SOLIDWORKS user, recounts his experience with running the software over such a low-bandwidth experience, with no noticeable issues.

Icon Outside explained that, “With 19 pivot points moving simultaneously in the front end alone we relied heavily on the power of SOLIDWORKS assemblies to make sure we had optimized geometry and that the three main systems of steering articulation and suspension would work both independently of and in synchronicity with each other.” 3D Printers from Markforged are, “also playing an increasingly important roll in our R&D as well as some production parts we learned on the power of SOLIDWORKS even more to design complex 3D printing worth parts that help keep us ahead of the curve.” The Icon Explore three wheeled adaptive trike.

These range from the Mako Slingshot Jetboard to the Icon Explore three wheeling adaptive trike – an electric vehicle capable of keeping pace with the most ardent of mountain bikers. Around the expo area, termed the Partner Pavillon here at the LACC examples of many products designed with SOLIDWORKS are in abundance. Next, SOLIDWORK PLM services and Product Design were announced. The Social Collaboration element of design is seen as increasingly important in an era of shortening product life cycles. This tool is intended to encourage cross departmental teams to collaborate on ideas from an early stage, but without losing structure. Returning to SOLIDWORKS World announcements, first came the news that the 3DEXPERIENCE platform will now include a Social Collaboration Service. ![]() Gian Paolo Bassi CEO of SolidWorks at SOLIDWORKS World 2018. ![]() ![]() While the distinction in terminology may seem minor, around the conference and expo it is such vision from the leaders of this company that many attendees admire – and therefore should be considered as important.

SOLIDWORKS and Dassault Systemes executives ride into SOLIDWORKS World 2018. After making a grand entrance, riding an autonomous vehicle style breakfast table, SOLIDWORKS CEO Gian Paolo Bassi took to the stage to tell an excited crowd about 5 new announcements for the 3D CAD software. The French software developer and 3D design expert’s annual event saw 5,000+ assemble for a grand opening in the Western hall of the Los Angeles Convention Center (LACC). This week 3D Printing Industry is in LA for Dassault Systemes SOLIDWORKS World.
