For many of us, it seems like SolidWorks World 2012 just ended last week. And while we’re still six months out from SolidWorks World 2013 in Orlando, things are already starting to happen.
While SolidWorks World always has lots of great presentations and guest speakers, the real value of the event for most customers comes from the technical breakout sessions that take place over three days, most of which are lead by regular SolidWorks customers. These presenters come from around the world, and lead sessions on topics in which they have considerable experience. In return, we let them into the event for free. You can see some of the presentations from SolidWorks World 2012 on SolidWorks website.
Any SolidWorks customer 21 or older can submit a proposalto present at the event, starting today. If you have any interesting thing to share, just go ahead and submit the presentation. Later this summer, SolidWorks World selection committee will get together and pick the ones that they think will be the most valuable, and send out invitations. SolidWorks World Team encourage both long-time presenters and new applicants alike to submit.
It was a nice weather on Tuesday 14 in San Diego and every one was enjoying the SolidWorks World 2012. It was the day when HP unveiled the world’s first all-in-one workstation with a 27-inch diagonal display at a press luncheon.
Tom Salomone, HP’s MCAD & AEC Segment manager quoted on this machine “It’s power without tower.”
Designed like no other, the display of the new HP Z1 Workstation snaps open so users can easily swap out parts and make upgrades without any tools required.
The HP Z1 combines a sleek industrial design with accelerated performance featuring Intel® Xeon® processors, NVIDIA Quadro graphics, support for more than 1 billion colors and HP’s world-class reliability.
Built for computer-aided design, digital media and entertainment professionals, the HP Z1 provides blazingly fast rendering and performance. It offers a full range of workstation-class graphics cards and processors, and is thoroughly tested and certified to work with today’s leading industry applications.
Workstation performance without compromise

I know I’ve been really late this year to talk on what was all there at the SolidWorks World 2012 in San Diego. And I’m really sorry for that but would like to thank my reader for still appreciating my blog.
Every year at SolidWorks World amazing things happens. But there is one common thing which happens at every SolidWorks World. Can you guess??
Well she is Anne Yust, always the first person to enter through the door for the general sessions at SolidWorks World.
This year there were 5650 attendees from 33 different countries under one roof to celebrate SolidWorks World 2012.
The general session was kicked off with some cool animations of NAO robot band which are designed in SolidWorks.
Up next on the stage was SolidWorks CEO Bertrand Sicot. He announced about growing number of SolidWorks attendees in comparison to around 4,300 attendees at SolidWorks World 2008 here in San Diego. SolidWorks community has now grown up to 1.7 million users worldwide. As per him if they were to create a city of all the SolidWorks users, it would be the fourth largest city in America.
He also said that “We all are connected through design”
Sicot then mentioned about my friend Daniel Hertzberg, who was an intern at SolidWorks. He has been operated for his heart valve and amazing thing was that the heart valve was designed by a company called On-X Life Technologies using SolidWorks.
The amazing thing about these heart valves is that unlike other artificial heart valve recipients, the person having these new heart valves doesn’t requires blood thinners. This is really impressive.
Finally it was time of the surprise we all were waiting for and here he comes. Mike Rowe, host of Discovery Channel’s Dirty Jobs and CEO of mikeroweworks.com.
Mike talked about how the show came in as a tribute to his grandfather. After the first show was aired he received so much mail from people taking about various things and emotions related to show that it was further converted into a series. So far over 150 episodes have been aired with over 300 dirty jobs. The show has been filmed in all 50 states.
Mike said that when he got the invitation for the SolidWorks World 2012, he thought “it’s a convention for SolidWaste management“.
Bertrand then talked about the feedback received on some of the new features of SolidWorks 2012 like Costing Tool, Large Design Review, Equation dialogue and Magnetic Lines.
He also introduced the R & D who works in the background to make these cool things possible.
Some of the points he mentioned were:
DraftSight has been downloaded more than 2 million times since it has been released for use. DraftSight is free 2d tool for editing/viewing your CAD files.
Increased number of Certified SolidWorks Professionals and now there are more than 50000 CSWP’s around the world. It feels nice to be a part of CSWP community.
He also pointed out the number of job openings increasing per day demanding SolidWorks knowledge as compared to few other 3d tools.
Next on stage was Bernard Charlès introducing Dr. Maia Hoeberechts, Research Theme Integrator for NEPTUNE Canada
NEPTUNE is the world’s first underwater observatory network. It includes more than 130 instruments and 400 sensors in the northern Pacific, linked by over 500 miles of cable—all connected to the Internet and constantly collecting data. This data is available freely to a community of researchers around the world, twenty-four hours a day. The public can also take part and make discoveries, and this combination of professional and hobbyist research is leading to new insights about the ways in which our oceans work.
Bernard then talked about the horizon after PLM i.e. 3D Experince “the new symbol for Dassault Systèmes”
And about the new trademark “IF WE“
Things were getting more excited and soon after Bernard, Joe Dunne, Director Product Management was rocking the stage along with Tony Fadell, “the father of the iPod.”
He talked about the origins of the iPod and showed his latest product, Nest, a digital thermostat designed to learn and can be controlled from anywhere even from your iPhone.
The beauty of the NEST is that it has been designed in SolidWorks with just team of 8 people. He commented that “Working together is the way“. He also said that “It’s our duty to create products for next generations“
