APEX - Optical Design Add-In for SolidWorks

As an add-in to the industry-standard SolidWorks 3D-modeling environment, APEX designs and analyzes even the most complex optical and illumination systems using an easy-to-follow workflow.

With the full power and sophistication of SolidWorks, in APEX there is no need to translate, bridge or link between two separate programs. In APEX, you learn, create, design, and analyze in the same program environment - and that environment is all about ease of use. APEX seamlessly melds the worlds of computer-aided design and optical engineering, resulting in an “optics aware” design application.
