Description

This is a SolidWorks course and training program that teaches students, engineers and 3D modelling enthusiasts how to use SolidWorks software, which is a popular computer-aided design (CAD) and engineering program used by professionals in a variety of industries. In this SolidWorks course, you will typically learn how to create and edit 2D and 3D models, as well as how to use SolidWorks tools and features to create technical drawings. This SolidWorks course comprise of online self-paced learning through video tutorials. The length and depth of the learning videos in this SolidWorks Course have been matched to suit all levels, may it be beginners, new users or existing users of SolidWorks. The course has been packaged to enable you as the learner to gain the skills and knowledge you need to use SolidWorks effectively and efficiently, and with speed in your work or studies. The course has adopted the style of "learning by doing" and materials necessary to facilitate this form of learning have been provided as "downloadable resources". As a matter of facts, you will have access to over 50 SolidWorks CAD models (Both 3D Parts and Assembly models) to facilitate the learning and demonstration process.The 5 main sections that we will consider in this training are:Section I- SolidWorks User Interface (UI) and Basic Settings- To start and enhance your understanding of SolidWorks, understanding of the user interface is key. Understanding the UI of SolidWorks gives you unmatched speed and flexibility when modelling and designing components in 3D environment in SolidWorks.Section II- Sketch Creation-Sketches are the foundation blocks for parts and assembly creationSection III- 3D Parts CreationSection IV- Assembly Creation-Other than assembly creation, appearance application and PhotoView 360 Rendering is included in this section.Section V- Technical Drawings CreationThe course is suitable for:Beginners and New Users of SolidWorksStudentsExisting user of SolidWorksEngineers3D Modelling enthusiastsIn addition, you will have access to additional SolidWorks Lectures and updates as Extra Content as will be provided from time to time. Rest assured of guaranteed support in case of any difficulty in following the lectures. Prompt response will be provided. So, in case of any queries or suggestions be free to contact us and we will give our utmost effort to respond within the shortest time possible.
