How to make a 3d rendering with solidworks visualize

Hello

Is it possible to render 3D with solidworks visualize? Because I need to send a client a model of a machine, and sending several image renderings is not practical. I would prefer something like PDF3d but in good quality...

Kind regards

Hello

If you want to make a 3D PDF instead, you have to go directly through Solidworks. When you open your assembly, you save as, choose the PDF format, and check PDF 3D.

On Visualize, you can render but the recording will be in photo format (if you have the standard version) or in video format (if you have the premium version).

Kind regards.

Hello 

Otherwise depending on the degree of confodentiality, you can also make an executable edrawing!?

Hello

 

eDrawings Viewer, with the addition of support for SOLIDWORKS shader data.

It also works on a tablet, which I take to go to my customers or suppliers.

Kind regards

On the other hand, see the privacy rules and if, you will show the client what you want, or if you send him the file and he does what he wants with it... :)

Good evening G.

Can you tell what an executable edrawing is, I don't know . Especially how it works for the recipient.

Indeed, many customers or suppliers do not want us to install Edrawing viewer, which complicates exchanges a little. While 3D pdf is better accepted even if the quality is much lower, the possibilities are much lower.

I just save a part, an assembly, an MEP in Edrawing.

Thank you in advance for your feedback

Kind regards

Hello, you make an edrawing then you open it with your Edrawing software and from your open edrawing, you save it as and there you can make an executable.

Basically, when the client opens the file, even without having the software, he can see the file.

It's a little heavier than a classic edrawing but it's okay.

Have a nice day

G.

Thank you for your answers,

I'm thinking of working with 3d pdfs so that the client realizes the geometry of the installations, and adding the SW visualize rendering images to be a little more salesy!
