SOLIDWORKS AI brings artificial intelligence directly into the SOLIDWORKS design environment, helping engineering teams accelerate product development without leaving their familiar workspace. From automating repetitive modeling tasks to generating drawings, diagnosing errors, and building assembly structures, SOLIDWORKS AI is engineered to support real engineering work — not replace engineering judgment.
BEACON India brings this next generation of design automation to manufacturers and design teams across India, helping organizations reduce design cycle time, improve documentation accuracy, and free up engineering capacity for higher-value work.
SOLIDWORKS AI is purpose-built for engineers — combining embedded, assistive intelligence with conversational Virtual Companions to support design, validation, and documentation at every stage of the product development process.
Generate, evaluate, and refine multiple design concepts in the time it previously took to complete one.
Automate manual, repetitive modeling and documentation tasks so engineers can focus on solving real design problems.
Capture design and engineering knowledge once, and reuse it consistently across projects to avoid repeat errors.
SOLIDWORKS AI Virtual Companions bring an expert-level assistant directly into the design process — combining engineering context with intelligent capabilities to help teams move faster through design, validation, and documentation.
Designed to work within the existing 3D CAD workflow, these capabilities help engineering teams eliminate repetitive tasks and accelerate design delivery.
As components are inserted into an assembly, AI-assisted recognition identifies fastener-like geometry — nuts, bolts, and washers — and automatically mates them into position.
This capability extends beyond standard toolbox components to custom or third-party fasteners, including generic imported geometry such as STEP files, reducing manual positioning effort and improving overall assembly accuracy.
AI-powered command prediction analyzes the tools currently in use and anticipates the most likely next step in the design process.
Instead of navigating through menus, a dynamic toolbar surfaces relevant commands as the workflow evolves — for example, suggesting fillet or chamfer options immediately after a cut feature — helping designers stay focused on modeling rather than searching for commands.
AI-driven drawing generation helps produce manufacturing documentation directly from 3D models, reducing repetitive manual setup.
Templates, standards, sheet size, and primary views can be defined ahead of time, with the preview refined through iterative prompts. Once the output matches the required standard, the drawing can be generated, saved, and shared — cutting setup time while preserving design intent.
Describing an intended assembly through natural language prompts allows AI to generate a complete starting structure — organized top-level assemblies, subassemblies, and components — giving teams a starting point rather than building from scratch.
The structure can be refined conversationally, with components adjusted, replaced, or reorganized until it matches the intended design hierarchy, after which the full assembly and part file structure can be generated.
Resolves modeling errors faster with natural language feedback and root-cause analysis, reducing the trial and error typically required to isolate design conflicts.
A lot of companies still have legacy drawings in PDF’s that have never been converted to SolidWorks. Companies have reasons for needing to keep or maintain these. A lot of times this is regulatory requirements – FDA, nuclear, etc.
Leo can convert this documentation into structured parametric models. This gives you a working foundation instead of manual reconstruction. Ultimately it accelerates reuse and reduces recreation effort.
Validation plays a critical role in reducing production errors and ensuring product quality. AI Virtual Companions make simulation more accessible, enabling teams to test early and often and reduce the risk of costly rework during manufacturing.
Engineering teams often lose valuable development time to manual model adjustments and administrative overhead during the design process. AI Virtual Companions help address these inefficiencies by analyzing workflow patterns and suggesting optimal next steps.
Innovation and data protection go hand in hand. SOLIDWORKS AI is built with customer intellectual property as a priority.
SOLIDWORKS AI is designed to deliver impact across key areas of product development.
Generate and refine multiple design concepts in a fraction of the time.
Automate documentation, drawing creation, and repetitive modeling tasks.
Standardize design decisions across teams and projects to reduce errors.
A set of intelligent capabilities that assist engineers by automating repetitive tasks, providing design guidance, and enabling natural-language interaction through Virtual Companions such as AURA and LEO.
Automated drawing generation, design assistance through interactive chat, command prediction, sketch analysis and repair, fastener recognition, and more, with new capabilities released regularly.
No. Customer data is never used to train AI models. Governance controls ensure customer intellectual property remains protected and isolated.
Yes. SOLIDWORKS AI can auto-generate 2D drawings based on natural language prompts, following specified standards, templates, and dimensioning schemes.
No. It automates repetitive tasks and surfaces relevant knowledge. Engineers remain responsible for design intent, validation, and final decision-making.
Organizations using SOLIDWORKS Design with Cloud Services gain access to Virtual Companions and their AI-powered capabilities. BEACON India can help assess current workflows and guide implementation.
SOLIDWORKS AI is designed to help engineering teams design faster, reduce repetitive work, and improve product development workflows. BEACON India helps organizations evaluate, implement, and adopt SOLIDWORKS AI capabilities aligned to their design and manufacturing workflows.
