SOLIDWORKS Costing 2015 now supports weldments for a more comprehensive support of manufacturing methods. Like other manufacturing methods, Weldments support includes unique characteristics and are costed based on either a stock length or on a per unit length method. This helps ensure an accurate manufacturing cost and also provides insight into potential waste. Costmetic Welds are also supported to include welding costing and time based on length and size of the weld.

By automating weldment costing, you can manage manufacturing costs more readily and easily evaluate the impact different options or designs make in a shortened time frame.
