Hawk Ridge Systems Releases HawkWare Productivity Tools for SolidWorks 3D Design
Hawk Ridge Systems introduces HawkWare™ - a suite of productivity software tools which automate and optimize functionality in SolidWorks 3D Design Systems. HawkWare provides productivity enhancements for SolidWorks users, and is available in two editions – HawkWare Standard™ and HawkWare Professional™. The Standard version is a series of free productivity software downloads which optimize four functional design elements in SolidWorks products. HawkWare Professional is a fee-based offering which provides advanced functionality for four widely-used features in SolidWorks Enterprise Product Data Management (PDM).
“We have a rich background in parametric design, and are always looking for new ways to improve the design experience for our SolidWorks community of engineers. We pride ourselves on innovation and creativity with our deep bench of Certified SolidWorks professionals and degreed mechanical engineers, so building HawkWare is just another example of sharing our know-how with our customers,” says Dale Ford, P. Eng and Chief Operating Officer of Hawk Ridge Systems. Mr. Ford adds, “HawkWare is a natural extension of our ability to bring solutions to engineers and designers to optimize the already highly advanced capabilities of SolidWorks products.”
HawkWare Standard includes tools which are generally designed to automate functionality which is inclusive in SolidWorks Enterprise PDM, including Variable Creator, Add References, Folder Creator and BOM Exporter (Bill of Materials). With HawkWare Professional, advanced productivity tools for SolidWorks Enterprise PDM include Auto Document Number, Card Plus, Rollback to Last Revision, and Sync Card Variables.
Recognized at SolidWorks World 2012 as the world’s largest reseller of SolidWorks 3D Design applications, Hawk Ridge Systems has been steadily enhancing the already robust capabilities in SolidWorks. With the announcement of HawkWare, Hawk Ridge Systems enters a new field of readily available productivity tools which improve on the already rich experience that SolidWorks provides for 3D designers and mechanical engineers.
