By using the SOLIDWORKS API, we can automate dimension changes and reduce operations.
To change dimensions through dimensional optimization, there are two methods: one is to directly modify the CAD model and remesh it, and the other is to change the mesh itself (morphing). Many CAD systems support scripting languages for manipulating CAD models, allowing external programs to operate on CAD models using these scripts. Here, we will introduce an example of dimensional optimization using a VBA macro that links SolidWorks (SolidWorks Japan Co., Ltd.) with 'AMDESS'.
