Virtual reality has done nothing but grow over the last decade. As the technology has continued to improve, more and more industries are finding a way to adapt the technology to their needs. One of the companies doing just that is EXXAR.
Now I am not old by any means, but I'm certainly starting to feel like it. I remember a time when something like virtual reality was found only in movies and TV shows. I would stay up on Friday nights watching Star Trek: The Next Generation as a kid, dreaming of what could be possible if something like the holodeck actually existed. It was a distant pipe dream that only seemed possible in the world of science fiction.
SOLIDWORKS 2018 is here, and with it comes a plethora of new features that help streamline your design process. One of these that has received a lot of love this year is 3D Interconnect.
One of the major focuses with 2018 has been streamlining the user experience. In this video, we sit down and show you what's new to 3D Interconnect and what these updates mean for your next design project.
Last Wednesday, Alignex hosted 10 high school students participating in Mayer Lutheran's J-Term Engineering Exploration course. Their visit to Alignex was part of a 4-day field trip visiting machine shops, design shops and 3D printers throughout the Twin Cities to explore careers in engineering and related fields.
Looking back on 2016, there have been a number of Alignex video blog posts that have topped our charts. While these posts cover a wide range of topics, they all share one common goal—to highlight key tools and features in SOLIDWORKS to help save you time, avoid rework costs and ultimately streamline your design process.
Here are the top 8 SOLIDWORKS video blogs of 2016...
Did you know Alignex is a proud sponsor of STEM programs? STEM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math—subjects that help kids develop critical thinking skills, problem-solving skills and interact with real-world challenges.
Are your modeling abilities a cut above the rest? Every year at SOLIDWORKS World design engineers from around the country test their skills and compete during a live Model Mania Contest. In 2015, Alignex customer Nick Vande Waerdt from Kooima won 1st place at SOLIDWORKS World.
This year at our Minneapolis 
, we thought we’d have a little competition of our own!
I'm looking forward to my keynote at next Tuesday's 
at Target Field in Minneapolis, and think you should be there. Here's why!
One of the big changes for SOLIDWORKS 2016 is a facelift of the user interface.
One of the first things you will notice about the software when you open it for the first time is a new look and feel. One of the primary reasons for the UI redesign is to fully support ultra-high resolution large format (4K) displays.
Most icons are similar to previous icons, but with crisper lines that improve readability and recognition. The new LARGE ICON size is very easy on the eyes with an ultra-high resolution display.
