This presentation provides an overview of SolidWorks, a 3D mechanical CAD program. It discusses the main modules in SolidWorks including part modeling, assembly modeling, surface modeling, and drawings. For part modeling, it explains the basic modeling process of planning the part, creating the base feature, adding remaining features, and modifying as needed. It also discusses assembly modeling using mates to control part movement. The presentation demonstrates some common sketching and 3D feature commands and provides examples of their use, such as extruding, sweeping, revolving, and lofting. It concludes with a brief introduction to SolidWorks assemblies.

3. 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 full solid
models in a simulated environment for both design and analysis.

5. 1. Part Modelling:-
• 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:
5
• Plan the part
• Create the base feature
• Create the remaining features
• Analyse the part
• Modify the features as necessary

6. 2. Assembly Modelling :-
• Assembly is a combination of two or more components using parametric
relationship.
• In SolidWorks, these relationships is called mates.
• Mates enable you to control part movement with respect to each other.

7. 3. Surface Modelling :-
• SolidWorks surface module can create complex surface using loft and sweeps with guide
curves, drag handles for easy control and innovation surface features.
• The basic process to create the surface model is as follows:
7
• Acquire the wireframe model.
• Study the wireframe model.
• Create and verify the required surface.
• Output the surface model.

8. 4. Drawing :-
• A drawing is the typical way to represent a 3D model such that any engineer (or
manufacturer) can recreate your part.
• Drawings are important because they provide a standard way of sharing your
design.

10. SKETCHER
• In the part, click the sketches tab in command manager and the sketch toolbar
appears.
• Click the sketch icon tools>sketch entities.
• Select any reference plane to sketch.
