CONTENT Introduction Modules in solid works Getting Start Sketcher Commands SolidWorks Assembly
INTRODUCTION SolidWorks is a 3D mechanical CAD program that runs on Microsoft Window. Which was developed by SolidWorks corporation, headquartered in U.S.A., a subsidiary of Dassault Systems. SolidWorks is used by students, designers, engineers, and other professionals to produce simple and complex parts, assemblies, and drawings. SolidWorks is a 3D solid modeling package which allows users to develop a full solid models in a simulated environment for both design and analysis.
MODULES IN SOLIDWORKS Part Modeling Assembly Modeling Surface modeling Drawing
1. Part modeling The first, and most basic element of a SolidWorks model is a Part. Parts consist of primitive geometry and features such as extrudes, revolutions,lofts,sweeps,etc. Parts will be the building blocks for all of the models that you will create. The basic modelling process for each part is follows: Plan the part Create the base feature Create the remaining features Analyse the part Modify the Features as necessary
2. Assembling modeling Assembly is a combination of two or more components using parametric relationship. In solid work these relationships is called Mates. Mates enable you to control part movements with respect to eachother.
3. Surface modeling SolidWorks surface module can create complex surface by using loft and sweeps with guide curves, drag handles for easy control and innovation surface features. The basic process to create the surface module as follows Acquire the wireframe model Study the wireframe model Create and verify the require surface Output the surface model
4. Drawing A drawing is the typical way to represent a 3D model such that any engineer (or manufacturer ) can recreate your part. Drawing are important because they provide standard way of sharing your design.
