Particles, whether liquid droplets, bubbles, or solids, interact with fluid flows in complex ways. These interactions influence product performance, efficiency, and safety. Understanding behavior within fluid flow with particle simulations is critical for industries ranging from automotive and aerospace to pharmaceuticals and consumer goods. What is Fluid Dynamics Engineer? The Fluid Dynamics Engineer (FMK) role […]
Quand l’infra devient code : testez vos rôles Ansible
Tester son code Ansible : une pratique incontournable La gestion de configuration est devenue un élément central pour maintenir des environnements complexes de manière répétable et fiable. Ansible, avec sa simplicité et sa flexibilité, est souvent le choix privilégié. Mais, malgré sa popularité, beaucoup de playbooks et de rôles sont encore écrits sans tests, ce […]
How to Show Dimensions When Creating a Sketch in SOLIDWORKS
Sketches are the basis of everything inside SOLIDWORKS. Adding dimensions to sketches is an essential part of the sketching and design workflow. Dimensioning sketches can be done in multiple ways, and in this article, we’ll showcase the two most common methods to show dimensions when creating a sketch. These methods speed up workflows and increase […]
How to Use Multiple Terminal Symbols in SOLIDWORKS Electrical
Prior to SOLIDWORKS Electrical 2025, unlike other electrical components, you were unable to insert multiple terminal symbols. Therefore, a workaround is required for single-level terminals in versions older than SOLIDWORKS 2025. While SOLIDWORKS Electrical 2025 and newer versions added a new workflow to natively represent single-level terminals with multiple symbols, there is a solution for […]
Introducing the Start Page in DraftSight 2026
Before DraftSight 2026, users were met with an empty drawing when launching the software. While this can let you immediately start a new drawing or navigate elsewhere, beginners would be left without much guidance. For premium-level licenses, including DraftSight Premium, Enterprise Plus, and Mechanical, you can now use the newly introduced Start Page to quickly […]

If you’re working with SOLIDWORKS PDM and encounter the warning message “Could not read reactor table version”, you’re not alone. Fortunately, there’s a straightforward way to resolve this and get your SOLIDWORKS PDM vault running properly. What Causes the “Could not read reactor table version” Error? This issue typically arises when a client workstation has […]
How to Make a Cone in SOLIDWORKS
Even the most fundamental SOLIDWORKS tasks can leave you stumped when there are so many ways to complete them. Knowing how to make a cone is one of those tasks that, depending on how you were trained, you may approach it differently. We’ll review the three most common ways to make a cone in SOLIDWORKS, […]
How to Reorient SOLIDWORKS Model Views
Knowing how to reorient SOLIDWORKS model views is critical for creating accurate drawings, assemblies, and presentations. Whether you’re preparing a technical drawing or setting up a rendering, having the correct view alignment ensures clarity and consistency. What Are The Standard SOLIDWORKS Model Views? SOLIDWORKS uses standard model views such as the Front, Top, Right, and […]
