Description

Engineering Design with SOLIDWORKS 2016 and video instruction is written to assist students, designers, engineers and professionals. The book provides a solid foundation in SOLIDWORKS by utilizing projects with step by step instructions for the beginner to intermediate SOLIDWORKS user. Explore the user interface, CommandManager, menus, toolbars and modeling techniques to create parts, assemblies and drawings in an engineering environment.

Follow the step by step instructions and develop more than one parts and assemblies that combine machined, plastic and sheet metal components. Formulate the skills to create, modify and edit sketches and solid features.

Learn the techniques to reuse features, parts and assemblies through symmetry, patterns, copied components, Design Tables, Bills of Materials, Custom Properties and Configurations. Address more than a few SOLIDWORKS analysis tools and Intelligent Modeling techniques at the side of Additive Manufacturing (3D printing). Learn by doing not just by reading.

Desired outcomes and usage competencies are listed for each project. Know your objective up front. Follow the steps in Projects 1 – 9 to succeed in the design goals.

Review Project 10 on Additive Manufacturing (3D printing) and its benefits and features. Take note the terms and technology used in low cost 3D printers.

Work between more than one documents, features, commands and custom properties that represent how engineers and designers utilize SOLIDWORKS in industry.

Review individual features, commands and tools with the Video Instruction. The projects contain exercises. The exercises analyze and examine usage competencies. Collaborate with leading industry suppliers such as SMC Corporation of The us, Boston Gear and 80/20 Inc.

Collaborative information translates into a large number of formats such as paper drawings, electronic files, rendered images and animations. On-line intelligent catalogs guide designers to the product that meets both their geometric requirements and performance functionality.

The creator developed the industry scenarios by combining his own industry experience with the knowledge of engineers, department managers, vendors and manufacturers. These professionals are directly involved with SOLIDWORKS on a daily basis. Their responsibilities go far beyond the creation of just a 3D model.

The book is designed to compliment the SOLIDWORKS Tutorials contained in SOLIDWORKS 2016.
