Yes. NI SoftMotion for SolidWorks does support velocity mode. Just right click on your Straight Line Move function block and navigate to Select Method>Velocity. This executes the straight-line move at the specified velocity until a Stop Move is commanded, a limit is encountered, or you execute a move at a new velocity. You do not specify target positions in velocity mode. The direction of motion is determined by the sign of the specified velocity.
