We thrive as learners when we actively practice the skills we want to master, and this is especially true for learning computer-aided design. Mastering Modern CAD Drawings with SOLIDWORKS 2024 provides new and more experienced users with the perfect blend of preparation and plenty of practice to build their skills. Clearly explained theory and techniques help you create 2D drawings and engineering graphics for a variety of parts, meaning you will never have to ask why you are completing a step. Designed as an efficient tool for busy, visually oriented learners, this book offers excellent technical detail and motivating real-world examples, focusing on the latest standards, materials, industries and production processes.
Because of its popularity, there is a high demand for those with SOLIDWORKS skills. In Mastering Modern CAD Drawings with SOLIDWORKS 2024 you create the types of SOLIDWORKS projects that students, designers, engineers, and other manufacturing professionals routinely encounter. The diverse assortment of parts covered, including machined, plastic injection molding, casted and sheet metal, will pique every learner’s interest. The drawing exercises give you room to remember and apply your new-found skills at your own pace. Topics important to technical drawing are included, such as customizing the Bill of Materials, using the Custom Properties, creating Tabulated Tables in MS-Excel, Model Based Definition (MBD), and one of the most used standards in CAD: ASME ANSI GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing). This thoughtfully written and organized book gives you a balanced view of computer-aided drafting that you won’t get with other SOLIDWORKS books.
