SPI SheetMetalWorks is the certified Goldpartner Solution for the SOLIDWORKS CAD software, fully integrated into the current Version, and – even in the case of complex designs, facilitates fast and ready to manufacture sheet metal unfolding. For the handling of components consisting of a single part or of assemblies, transitions and connections, special libraries are available and can be expanded to accommodate as many of your own parametric components as well.
