TOP 10 BEST NEW FEATURES | What’s New in SOLIDWORKS 2024
SOLIDWORKS 2024 Update Highlights
Assemblies
In SOLIDWORKS Assemblies 2024, useful feature updates have been made to the insert component tool. When selecting a configuration, not only is the configuration name displayed, now the configuration description is also shown. Fix and float options are also included in the property manager. We can choose only fix the first component, fix, or float unanswered. Also notable are updates to mate references, and creating mates, like a new option to ‘create mates only when the names match’ option. Creating mates only when mate reference names match produces predictable results with much more efficiency. These new additions are sure to increase your productivity, SOLIDWORKS 2024 .
Parts, Features, and Sketching
SOLIDWORKS 2024 gives us some great enhancements to sketches, features, and parts. New in SOLIDWORKS 2024, sketch dimension previews make it a snap to fully define our sketches. We no longer need to activate the smart dimension tool! Positioning Hole Wizard holes has been simplified by making it easy to take advantage of existing 2D sketches. Linear patterns that go in two directions are even easier in SOLIDWORKS 2024.
Sheet Metal
New in SOLIDWORKS 2024 Sheet Metal, Tab, and Slot features can be propagated to adjacent components when we reuse a part that already has Tab and Slot features defined. The Stamp feature is a new way to create a formed feature with a closed sketch. This can save time and effort by skipping the step of setting up a forming tool. Creating sheet metal part from cylindrical and conical bodies has never been easier with some enhancements to the Rip command where all we need is a circular edge and a sketch point to define where the Rip gap needs to go. These new enhancements should make creating and using sheet metal parts faster than ever.
Import / Export
New SOLIDWORKS 2024 Import features include STEP file import enhancements that provide a feature tree prior to importing all STEP geometry. This provides users with the option of selecting individual components for preview and import without the need for importing the entire assembly file. A great productivity enhancement when working with large assembly imports.

The process is straightforward: export the component list to Excel, make necessary adjustments, and reimport the updated properties, making it easy to test new scenarios rapidly.
SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation 2024 includes improvements in mesh generation scalability. Larger cell count meshes can now be generated notably faster. Another meshing enhancement involves the introduction of mesh "bullying" operations, which handle complex and problematic geometry more efficiently. This feature is useful when dealing with geometry issues like bad topology, missing entities, or self-intersecting faces that may have caused the solver to fail previously. These enhancements collectively contribute to an improved and more efficient SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation experience.
Advanced Simulation
SOLIDWORKS users can now access the powerful Abacus solver on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, offering industry-leading tools to address complex design challenges. Collaboration tools within the platform facilitate issue tracking and organization, keeping all stakeholders informed.

Composer
Composer 2024 now supports SpeedPaks, so the conversion of large SOLIDWORKS assemblies that contain SpeedPaks now work going into composer. This is great for everyone, but will really benefit anyone running Composer Sync, Sync Enterprise, or any other custom automation to transfer data from SOLIDWORKS to Composer.
MBD
SOLIDWORKS 2024 introduces a host of valuable enhancements for DimXpert and Model Based Definition. It offers an improved display feature that ensures DimXpert dimensions always stay on top of 3D models, regardless of their orientation, eliminating confusion. The software also now supports the use of hole tables in 3D parts, simplifying the representation of multiple hole sizes and locations.
This release also brings dual dimensions to feature control frames, providing users with greater flexibility in dimensioning conical features. It introduces the ability to create thickness dimensions between curved surfaces, making it easier to specify the distance between such surfaces. Furthermore, SOLIDWORKS 2024 streamlines dimension management by allowing the reattachment of DimXpert dimensions to new reference entities, eliminating the need to recreate dimensions when references change. Lastly, the software enables the export of custom properties with the STEP 242 command, enhancing data management and sharing capabilities.
