SOLIDWORKS 2022 What’s New – Best New Features

The release of SOLIDWORKS 2022 is near and the Computer Aided Technology Technical Team is excited for this release and all its new features. Mid-September, we started documenting the best new features of SOLIDWORKS 2022 from Part, Assembly, and Drawing tools to the new features in the SOLIDWORKS family of tools like SOLIDWORKS Simulation, SOLIDWORKS PDM, and SOLIDWORKS Electrical, to name a few. We have been sharing them with you and the SOLIDWORKS community thru the CATI Blog. We have since published 60 different articles on SOLIDWORKS 2022.  Below is a complete list and links to the articles:
