Solidworks

The goal of this course is to teach you how to use the SolidWorks mechanical design automation software to build parametric models of parts and assemblies and how to make simple drawings of those parts and assemblies.

The SolidWorks software is such a robust and feature-rich application that it is impractical to cover every minute detail and aspect of the software and still have the course be a reasonable length. Therefore, the focus of this course is on the fundamental skills and concepts central to the successful use of the SolidWorks software.

The Specific Topics Covered Here Include:

• SolidWorks fundamentals and the user interface.

• Introduction to sketching and part modelling.

• Shelling, patterning, and configurations.

• Using global variables and equations.

• Creating drawings and bottom-up assemblies.

• Editing and repairing errors.
