If you work with large assemblies, you’ve likely experienced the frustration of slow load times, long rebuilds, or system crashes during critical design work. As assemblies grow in complexity, inefficient modelling practices can quickly slow down productivity and impact project timelines.

To help engineers and designers overcome these challenges, we are hosting an Assembly Optimisation Short Course focused on improving performance and efficiency when working in SOLIDWORKS.
This half-day online session, taking place on 18 March from 08:30 to 12:30, will provide practical techniques and best practices that you can immediately apply to your daily workflow.
Why Assembly Optimisation Matters
Large assemblies are common in industries such as manufacturing, machinery design, mining, and industrial equipment. While these projects are powerful demonstrations of modern CAD capabilities, they can also create performance bottlenecks if not managed correctly.
Common issues include:
Slow opening and rebuild times
Frequent software crashes
Difficulty navigating complex models
Reduced efficiency when collaborating across teams
Assembly optimisation is not just about making files smaller; it’s about structuring your designs in a way that allows your CAD software to work efficiently while maintaining design intent.
By learning the right techniques, engineers can dramatically improve performance and reduce the time spent waiting for models to load or rebuild.
What You’ll Learn in This Short Course
During this session, our application specialists will demonstrate practical optimisation techniques within SOLIDWORKS that can significantly improve assembly performance.
Key topics will include:
Assembly Structure Best Practices
Learn how to structure assemblies correctly using proven design strategies that support scalability and performance.
Performance Optimisation Tools
Discover how to use powerful features designed specifically for working with large assemblies, including:
Lightweight components
Large Assembly Mode
SpeedPak configurations
Display states and configurations
Simplification techniques
Identifying Performance Bottlenecks
