Recently, however, enhanced hardware and new products have brought solid modeling to personal computers (PC's).
In the past, this solid modeling technology had been reserved for large, expensive, Unix-based workstations. It is the modeling method of choice for CATIA, Pro/ENGINEER, Unigraphics, Autodesk Inventor, Solid Edge, and SolidWorks, along with just about any other CAD system you can name. If you have any issues with some of the features presented in the videos, this link is a very helpful resource that gives some instructions on how to properly use them: For this tutorial, I will be modeling a water bottle consisting of two parts the bottle and the lid.Solid Modeling has grown to become the preeminent CAD modeling technology. Completing this tutorial will take you somewhere between 30 minutes to 1 hour if you are inexperienced with SolidWorks or any other CAD software. Basic shapes, and fewer features in the assembly will generally take much less time.
By the time you finish reading this tutorial, you should be able to successfully: * Model a basic part in SolidWorks * Successfully add basic features to the parts * Fully assemble multiple parts using basic mate features Necessary Tools: The amount of time required to create your part assembly will depend on the detail involved in the parts that you are trying to model. With the help of this guide, it doesn’t have to be. A powerful tool such as SolidWorks can be intimidating for the new user.
A basic knowledge of dimensions will also be helpful. New to SolidWorks? That is no problem! Purpose: These instructions are intended for someone new to using SolidWorks, and whom has somewhat basic computer skills.
