Learn the fundamental aspects of the SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD software. You will: Create sketches using lines, rectangles, arcs, and more. You'll use dimensions and relations to define the size and shape of the sketches. Use the sketches to develop extruded bosses, cuts, revolves, and more into 3D solids, commonly called parts. Combine the parts into assemblies and define the relationships between the parts using mates. Capture manufacturing information with 2D drawings of your 3D parts and assemblies. Learn about the additional tools that allow you to do even more with your parts and assemblies. You'll learn how to edit sketches and parts to make design changes and you'll learn about configurations to create families of parts such as bolts of different lengths and diameters.
Get started with the Structural Mechanics Engineer role. Understand the basics of the role and perform a simple structural analysis of a part and an assembly.
Get started with the 3D Creator role. Understand the basics of the xDesign app and create a simple part and assembly.
Learn the basics of using the 3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS role, with the SOLIDWORKS Connected app, to creating new, open existing, and saving documents to the platform.
In this module, you will learn how Project Planner enables small groups to work together and track tasks without a heavy, file-based project management approach. This team-based approach is effective in managing small or large, complex projects. With Project Planner, the responsibility of managing projects rests with the entire team rather than a single individual - helping the project run efficiently through all phases.
3D Creator is a role on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform that contains the xDesign app for 3D modeling. You can quickly get started with creating a new physical product, sketching, adding features, creating reference geometry, using patterns, editing models, and creating assemblies. In addition, you can learn about the flexibility of super features, working with multibody parts, and using direct editing tools.
In this learning path, you will learn how to use the platform management tools and the Platform Manager role to setup and configure the 3DEXPERIENCE platform for SOLIDWORKS users. You will create and configure a design environment, review setup and permissions, map properties, configure revisions, and control lifecycle status.
