If you're excited about the prospect of leveraging Logopress for SolidWorks 2023, here's how to get started:

This is the flagship product. In 2023, the intelligent lifters tool has been rewritten. Previously, placing a lifter required manual selection of edges. Now, the software uses AI-driven topology recognition to place lifters automatically on curved or irregular scrap strips. The simulation engine now visualizes strip sagging (gravity effect) for heavy parts, a game-changer for large automotive dies.
