SOLIDWORKS & DriveWorks Automation

Workflow and configuration support that reduces repetitive CAD work and improves consistency across recurring design tasks.

Starting point

What we need from you

  • Representative models, drawings, and configuration rules
  • Current manual workflow and recurring pain points
  • Expected users, outputs, and exception cases

Technical handoff

What you receive

  • Fully configured DriveWorks automation projects
  • Automated CAD models and assemblies
  • Generated drawings and documentation packages
  • Custom forms for user input and configuration
  • Documentation for system use and future updates

Less repetitive effort and a clearer, more consistent path through recurring engineering work.

Final files, formats, and review requirements are agreed in the project scope.

Illustrative workflow

From configuration choices to consistent outputs

  1. 01Define dimensions and options
  2. 02Apply configuration rules
  3. 03Generate models and drawings
  4. 04Review the outputs

Illustrative sequence. Activities and outputs are defined for each project.

Common questions

Clarify the scope before work begins.

Does every repeated CAD task make sense to automate?

No. ACMS first evaluates repetition, rule stability, exceptions, and expected value before recommending an automation scope.

Will the team receive process documentation?

Documentation and handoff requirements are defined with the automation scope so the workflow is understandable and maintainable.
