Advanced management of your custom properties:
One of the most important valuable assets of a SolidWorks document is its custom properties. CustomTools offers a unique way to customize the custom property pane for part, assembly, drawing and weldments. With CustomTools, the custom properties are managed via profiles (e.g project manager, designers…) and stored into the database.
The custom properties can then quickly be inserted into the drawing/drawing template (with CustomData).
CustomTools offers a bidirectional link between SolidWorks and your external database.
It allows you to insert property information from your ERP/MRP system into your SolidWorks document. You can customize the custom property pane specifically for the assembly, part, drawing, and weldments. Fill the custom properties of your documents in the simplest and safest way; as the custom properties are not typed over and over again, and as all the design team uses the same set of custom properties.
