Who Presented: Chad Garrish and Tanner Knight of Converge
Join us next month for “AI for Engineering / Manufacturing 2026,” a focused webinar that explores how embedded AI in SOLIDWORKS (Aura) and general-purpose large language models can accelerate design, validation, and production workflows. We’ll demo Aura’s in-CAD capabilities and show practical ways to augment them with non-CAD LLMs for tasks like requirements capture, BOM generation, error triage, and automation of routine engineering work. We’ll also cap the session with a look ahead at upcoming apps and integrations—so you’ll walk away with concrete ideas for applying AI today and a clear view of what’s coming next.

Who Presented: Phillip Lewis and Tanner Knight of Converge
Deciding between SOLIDWORKS PDM Standard and PDM Professional is an important choice engineering teams must make when implementing a CAD data management system. This webinar cuts through product names and feature lists to give you a practical, side-by-side comparison: licensing models, core and advanced features, IT and admin requirements, scalability and performance, integration with design and PLM workflows, and real-world reasons to choose one over the other. You’ll leave with a clear rubric for evaluating which PDM flavor fits your team — plus concrete implementation tips, cost and maintenance considerations, and a live demo highlighting the user and admin experience.
Each month, we'll discuss a specific topic pertaining to one of the three pillars of CAD Data and hopefully provide a few solutions or options to optimize certain aspects of your workflow, so stay tuned!
