FIRST Robotics Teams use DriveWorks Design Automation software to complete the design stage quicker, start building sooner and get a head start on other teams! They can quickly and easily make changes to designs and save time, freeing up team members to focus on quality robot design. If you already use SOLIDWORKS® to design your robot, you already have design automation. DriveWorksXpress is included free inside every seat of SOLIDWORKS.
