SolidWorks 2004 Tutorial is written to assist students, designers, engineers
and professionals. The book provides a introduction to the user interface,
menus, toolbars, concepts and modeling techniques of SolidWorks to create
parts, assemblies and drawings.
Follow the step-by-step instructions and develop multiple assemblies that
combine over 80 extruded machined parts and 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 and configurations. Review 2
hours of flash movie files that follow the steps in the book.
Desired outcomes and usage competencies are listed for each project. Know
your objective up front. Follow the steps in Project 1 through Project 4 to
achieve your design goals. Work between multiple documents, features,
commands and custom properties that represent how engineers and designers
utilize SolidWorks in industry.
Review individual features, commands and tools at the end of each project
with the Multimedia CD. The projects contain exercises. The exercises
analyze and examine usage competencies.
