Work smarter, not harder! This presentation explores how Goddard Technologies used AI tools, SOLIDWORKS add-ons, third-party automation apps, and custom code to streamline new product integration in SOLIDWORKS, reducing manual effort and minimizing errors. We'll explore how Goddard engineers automated tedious tasks like populating custom properties, creating drawings, and exporting neutral files. We’ll also discuss how AI tools can help teams create custom VBA macros without coding knowledge, enhancing speed and consistency. The presentation will focus on a recent Goddard project involving the transfer of a 3000+ part assembly from Creo to SOLIDWORKS, including creation of all-new part and assembly drawings, and integration into their PLM system. Goddard’s automation process cut the project cycle time by as much as 50%. By leveraging AI and automation, teams can significantly reduce time spent on repetitive tasks, allowing engineers to focus on complex design challenges.
