Cadmes helps reduce unnecessary confusion by focusing on the software your business actually needs.
Cadmes offers a broad range of SOLIDWORKS products to support the way modern engineering, design, and manufacturing teams work. While many businesses start with core 3D design tools, others also need software for simulation, electrical design, product data management, plastics analysis, visual communication, drafting, and manufacturing-linked processes. Our role is to help you identify which SOLIDWORKS products are most relevant to your workflow, so you can invest in software that supports the way your team designs, collaborates, validates, and prepares work for production.
Create 3D models, assemblies, and technical drawings with design tools built for professional engineering and product development workflows.
Test performance earlier in the design process and make better engineering decisions with simulation tools connected to your CAD workflow.
Support schematic design, electrical documentation, and connected workflows with software built for electrical engineering needs.
Bring design and manufacturing closer together with CAM tools that support more efficient downstream production workflows.
Manage files, revisions, and engineering data with tools designed for stronger control, consistency, and collaboration.
Evaluate injection moulding behaviour earlier in development and identify potential manufacturing issues before production begins.
Create high-quality visual content from CAD data to communicate product ideas more clearly through images, animations, and presentations.
Access professional 2D drafting tools for creating, editing, and managing DWG-based work.
Turn 3D design data into technical communication content such as work instructions, manuals, service documents, and product visuals.

SOLIDWORKS is a professional 3D CAD and engineering software portfolio used for product design, technical drawings, design validation, data management, electrical workflows, and manufacturing-linked processes. Businesses use SOLIDWORKS to develop products more accurately, improve collaboration, and support a more efficient design process.
SOLIDWORKS is used for creating 3D models, assemblies, and engineering drawings, but it also supports a much wider range of workflows. Depending on the tools a business needs, SOLIDWORKS can also help with simulation, electrical design, product data management, drafting, visualisation, inspection, and manufacturing preparation.
SOLIDWORKS is suited to engineers, product designers, manufacturers, technical teams, and businesses that need professional design software. It is especially valuable for companies that need accurate 3D modelling, strong technical documentation, better design control, or improved links between engineering and manufacturing.
The right SOLIDWORKS product depends on the type of work your team does, the complexity of your projects, and whether you need more than core design functionality. Some businesses need a strong 3D design environment, while others also need tools for simulation, electrical design, file control, drafting, or manufacturing workflows. Cadmes helps customers compare the available options and identify the most suitable solution.
Choosing the right reseller can make the buying process far easier. Cadmes helps businesses understand the software options available, choose the right product for their workflow, and get access to training and support after purchase. That means you are not only buying software, but also getting guidance that helps your team use it more effectively.
