Could you build this?
Partial Developing a SolidWorks COM add-in that bridges to Blender requires deep familiarity with the SolidWorks COM/C# API and 3D mesh serialization formats.
What it would actually take: Requires C#/.NET for the SolidWorks Add-in utilizing the SolidWorks COM API to extract B-Rep geometry and tessellation data, and Python for the Blender add-in. The bridge must handle inter-process communication (via named pipes or sockets) and accurate translation between CAD NURBS/tessellated geometry and Blender polygon meshes.
