About DBWorks
by Jeff Sweeney
|
|
|
DBWorks is the simple, elegant solution to many of the problems faced in a parametric environment.
The people at MechWorks understand the industry very well and are very open to new ideas.
I am amazed with the new powerful functionality released in each version of the software.

At least two reasons for using DBWorks
by Hans Günter Weishaupt
|
|
|
The advantage of DBWorks for Volkmann is that, beginning in 1998 to present day,
we had the opportunity to start with a software that is on one side
very easy to install by ourself and had, from the beginning, the features
that we need, for example the integrated plot management, and all this for a low cost.
On the other side it can be very easily customized with the VB-Script language so
that for the future there is no limitation for us (for instance a little
connection to our big ERP-System).
The system is growing with our ideas and
aims and the response time is always very good. In 2004 we will integrate
Volkmann and our Sister Allma in Kempten with the DBWorks replication
system.
The people from Mechworks have always open ears for new ideas like:
- DBWStandalone
- the Briefcase function
- the Released Database Mode
- the Replication System.
DBWorks always integrates new features in the running system
so that we still have no update problem.
Our designers use DBWorks up
from the first moment to save every model, assembly or drawing so that they
can find it very easy.

|
|
Bosch Packaging Technology has choosen DBWorks for its ease of use, flexibility and functionality for collaboration in design teams including external contractors. We are looking forward to implement it at five European locations during the years 2003 and 2004

How we utilize DBWorks at Datacard
by Doug Freeman
|
|
|
Beyond the countless "out of boxes" tools & functions, Datacard has largely
benefited from the customizability of DBWorks. This flexibility has allowed
us to explore endless solutions to meet our CAD needs. One of our most
glaring needs was automating the processes we use to control and document
our designs. We were able to "map" our existing documentation processes
into DBWorks. Our CAD standards, developed prior to our DBWorks
implementation, are not only maintained, but are more easily adhered since
they are now built into the environment. Standards such as: file names,
locations, reference file linkings, proper drawing templates, etc; is
either controlled or checked without user interaction.
Below are a few specific examples of how we've customized DBWorks to fit
our needs:
- Automatically generate and attach our documentation files to our
Corporate PDM (Agile). The attached files are of zip & pdf formats and
are attached to eco, part, & document objects from the DBWorks browser.
- Generate a formatted spreadsheet that is used to automatically create assembly structures within Agile
- Compare and highlight the differences between two drawings (different revisions)
- Automated drawing formats
- Automatically rename, relocate, and relink cad files once the user has decided to assign a part number to their design files
- Single click create a zip file of an entire assembly (with or without drawings)
- Single click a drawing to pdf

Why are we using DBWorks?
by Stefan Karrer
|
|
DBWorks is developed from people who know very well SolidWorks and who know also very well the practices in designing with SolidWorks
MechWorks asks the customer, what must be enhanced in DBWorks,to help you to get a efficient way of developing with SolidWorks. Most enhancements are customer driven and are very fast implemented.
Mechworks hotline gives answers within the next hour, especially if it's "burning". Every question gets an answer.
DBWorks has a very easy to understand API, for all the small task which can be automated by the customer himself
DBWorks supports concurrent engineering and enables you to work not with file copies.
The user interface which works with colors for all the different states for the models, is very liked and understandable for the design engineers.
DBWorks is easy to learn and last but not least, cheap but very efficient.

Using DBWorks
by Kent Keller
|
|
|
If I were to write a PDM software from the ground up,
it would end up looking just like DBWorks.
I am very impressed with the ability of DBWorks to integrate in
the native environment of SolidWorks. It is simple in structure
and very fast and powerful. I particularly like the ability to customize
it to our needs using standard VBScripting and SQL language.
PDM is no longer a bottleneck in our company and the engineers love it!
