Drawings Automation in SolidWorks | Custom API & VBA Solutions

Automate Your SolidWorks Drawings and Save Engineering Time

Automate repetitive SolidWorks drawing and documentation tasks using custom API and VBA solutions ensuring accuracy, consistency and significant time savings.

Our team builds tailored automation tools to reduce manual effort, eliminate errors and streamline the entire engineering workflow.

Why Automation Matters

Manual drawing creation and documentation in SolidWorks can consume hours of valuable engineering time.

By automating drawing generation, BOM exports and documentation workflows, your team can focus on design innovation instead of repetitive tasks.

Our customized automation solutions integrate seamlessly into your existing setup whether you are using standalone SolidWorks or managing data through PDM and PLM systems.

What We Automate

  • Automatic generation of 2D drawings from 3D models
  • Batch export of PDFs, DXFs and STEP files
  • Standardized drawing templates and revision control
  • Data extraction from SolidWorks and PDM systems including BOM, metadata and revision history
  • Customized Bill of Materials BOM creation
  • Automated dimensioning and tolerance setup
  • Part family and configuration-based drawing updates
  • Workflow automation within PDM and PLM systems including approvals, file movement and version tracking
