Transform your SolidWorks product library into a self-service design system. DriveWorks automates model generation, drawings, BOMs, and pricing for configurable millwork - letting sales staff produce engineering-quality output without touching SolidWorks.
Every custom size, material, or hardware change requires an engineer to open SolidWorks, modify the model, update drawings, recalculate the BOM, and regenerate a quote. Your engineering team is buried in repetitive configuration work instead of solving real design challenges.
Manual quoting leads to pricing errors and multi-day turnaround. Customers expect same-day quotes with accurate pricing, but your process requires engineering input that creates delays and inconsistencies between sales reps.
We build DriveWorks rules that encode your engineering knowledge - valid dimension ranges, material compatibility, hardware requirements, and pricing formulas. The system enforces design rules automatically, preventing invalid configurations before they reach the shop floor.
From a single order form, DriveWorks generates the complete SolidWorks model, production drawings, BOM with material quantities, and customer quote. Output is production-ready with no engineering review required for standard configurations.
Products with variable dimensions, material options, and hardware configurations - but consistent underlying design logic - are ideal. Kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, display cases, reception desks, and modular shelving are all excellent candidates. If you're configuring the same product family repeatedly, DriveWorks can automate it.
That's the primary benefit. Sales staff, customer service reps, and dealers can configure products through simple web or desktop forms. DriveWorks enforces engineering rules behind the scenes, so only valid, manufacturable configurations are generated - no SolidWorks expertise required.
A single product family typically takes 2-4 weeks to automate, depending on the number of configuration options and rule complexity. We can implement DriveWorks Solo, Pro, or Live depending on whether you need desktop-only, multi-user, or web-based configuration.
