Diverse program around the entire process chain
In addition to lectures, live demos and user reports on Solidworks and the new highlights, the events offered a varied program covering the entire process chain. Solidworks not only offers a first-class CAD program, but also a wide range of products with various additional tools that make work easier for the designer. Furthermore, the tips & tricks for everyday work with Solidworks have always been particularly popular.
3D printer for composite materials
The 3D printers from the American partner company Markforged also met with great interest. The innovative 3D printer Mark Two was presented live on site. This is actually unique on the market because the printing of composite materials enables extremely stable functional parts, tools and devices to be manufactured.
The events at the Angelburg, Cologne, Hanover, Munich and Gladbeck locations offered a colorful and exciting program so that everyone could take one or two helpful tips for everyday construction work with them, Coffee said. (mz)
