DESIGN SOLUTION

A complete 3d CAD software

Due to SWOOD Design, a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software, you benefit from a powerful tool tailored to the specific requirements of the woodworking industry:

First, design your most complex wood projects in 3D using dedicated features integrated into an ergonomic, customizable, and parametric environment.

At the same time,  streamline your design processes and save your company know-how by storing your rules and models in libraries. Machining integration right from the design stage ensures high reliability. 

Finally, enhance collaboration between different departments throughout the project by centralizing design data.

advanced parametric features

  • design freedom
  • hardware insertion
  • material control
  • centralized information

TOTAL DESIGN FREEDOM

Create any complex structure. Owing to the solution's parametric capabilities, customization is made easy, and changes are automatically applied to the entire project according to predefined rules.

Moreover, SWOOD integrates multi-material projects by combining in a single interface its wood functions with SOLIDWORKS functions, such as weldments, sheet metal, resin, plastics, etc., in a single interface.

STREAMLINE REPETITIVE TASKS

LIBRARIES

  • Save your company know-how and maintain consistency in your projects by creating your own library elements with settings and predefined rules.
  • Download components with all supplier specifications and technical parameters for immediate project use with Library Installer.
  • Drag and drop library components that will automatically propose the most optimized configuration based on the insertion context.

HARDWARE

Save design time by reusing drag-and-drop hardware components from leading brands, such as drawers, hinges, handles and more.

DEFINE AND MODIFY YOUR MATERIAL WITHOUT CONSTRAINTS

PANELS

Manage all panel parameters (grain direction, thickness, stock extensions), and panel composition (laminate, multi-layer, edgebanding, etc.).

EDGEBANDING LIBRARIES

In the library, define the edgeband shapes, thickness, material, and more, to be applied to all projects at once, as well as change the edgebands’ application order at any moment.

Produce your 3D projects without the risk of errors

The software automatically collects all design element parameters, enabling a project report to be generated for production, including:

  • Material and hardware requirements
  • Machining programs
  • Panel lists
  • Stock lists, and many more.

Any parameter change made in the design is applied to programs and documents, enabling their generation in one click.

The export of these documents is fully customizable, and outputs documents in various file formats: XLS, PDF, CSV, HTML, XML, and the like, thus streamlining information transfer.

project report

Export all your project data

This report ensures the reliability of production data by compiling project information throughout the design process.
