 “SolidWorks is the
standard for 3D mechanical design software,” said Brian
Houle, Partner Program manager for SolidWorks. “Combining it
with ProFab gives engineers the tools they need to do their
jobs faster and better by reducing programming time and
increasing shop floor productivity.”
ProFab
ProFab is
integrated sheet metal
CAM
software that
allows users to generate CNC machine code using
SolidWorks sheet metal solid models. The ProFab
Hip Pocket Demo and Introduction to ProFab video show how easily
the ProFab software utilizes a direct interface
to SolidWorks to automate and optimize the
process of programming a CNC Turret Punch Press or Laser
Machine.
As a leader in the programming of CNC Punch Presses and
Laser Machines, the
ProFab Hip Pocket
Demo is a PowerPoint presentation showing
the main features of ProFab.
The
Introduction to ProFab video provides
streaming video of SolidWorks and ProFab in
action. A sheet metal part designed in
SolidWorks is used to show how ProFab is
integrated in SolidWorks, eliminating the need
to export and import data. AutoTool, interactive nesting, and optimize are
just some of the features highlighted.
 ProFab
supports SolidWorks 2004 and SolidWorks 2005 3D mechanical design software.
ProFab includes a direct interface to SolidWorks and
provides users with instant access to ProFab within the
SolidWorks window.

Customer Case Study
H&M Metals uses the ProFab
direct interface in SolidWorks to deliver a quality product
in a timely manner.
According to project engineer Gerry Trubey,
“A recent project I worked
on was adding rivet holes to a large complex frame. I did
the work in the customer's SolidWorks files and then
transferred the changes into ProFab."
