Project Based SOLIDWORKS 2016

Project Based SOLIDWORKS 2016

Project Based SOLIDWORKS is specifically designed to complement an engineering graphics course. It covers how to apply engineering graphics concepts such as part prints section views assembly drawings tolerancing and fasteners. It also extends these topics into the world of design. Project Based SOLIDWORKS takes a specific part or assembly and teaches you how to model each part and its configurations create part prints including assembly drawings if appropriate and takes it one step further and teaches concepts such as FEA tolerancing and parametric design. This book comes with instructional videos showing you how to perform each of the tutorials. It also comes with instructional videos showing how to complete each problem in the book. The exception to this is when a problem is open ended and each student will get different results. After completing all the tutorials in this book you will be able to design moderately difficult parts and assemblies in a realistic manner. This book is perfect for a freshman design class that wishes to include realistic design problems within their curriculum.

Students also seem to learn more quickly and retain information and skills better if they are actually creating something with the software program.  The driving force behind this book is “learning by doing.” The instructional format of this book centers on making sure that students learn by doing and that students can learn from this book on their own. In fact this is one thing that differentiates this book from others: the emphasis on being able to use the book for self-study. The presentation of Autodesk Inventor is structured so that no previous knowledge of any CAD program is required.  This book uses the philosophy that Inventor is mastered best by concentrating on applying the program to create different types of solid models starting simply and then using the power of the program to progressively create more complex solid models. The Drawing Activities at the end of each chapter are more complex iterations of the part developed by each chapter’s objectives.  Since CAD programs are highly visual there are graphical illustrations showing how to use the program. This reinforces the “learn by doing” philosophy since a student can see exactly what the program shows and then step through progressive commands to implement the required operations. Rather than using a verbal description of the command a screen capture of each command is replicated.  Included Videos  Each book includes access to extensive video training created by author Scott Hansen. The videos follow along with the table of contents of the book. Each chapter has one or more videos in which the author demonstrates how to use the tools that are covered in that chapter. Most videos follow an exercise from start to finish. The exercises created in the video are very similar to the exercise found in the corresponding chapter. Throughout the videos Scott Hansen describes how to perform each step the reason behind these steps and some of the other options available with the various tools. The author's clear and simple description of each exercise is a perfect companion to the text and makes learning Autodesk Inventor easier than ever.

Automating SOLIDWORKS 2021 Using Macros A guide to creating VSTA macros using the Visual Basic.NET Language

Engineers working with SOLIDWORKS are often faced with tedious repetitive work that can consume a lot of time but it doesn’t have to be this way. One of the most exciting aspects of SOLIDWORKS is its robust programming interface or API. The SOLIDWORKS API allows you to write code that can perform almost any series of actions for you. SOLIDWORKS was built from the ground up to automate and in this book you will learn how to take advantage of these powerful tools to speed up your work. Automating SOLIDWORKS 2021 Using Macros is designed as a tutorial to help beginner to intermediate programmers develop macros for SOLIDWORKS. Experience with programming isn’t required. The book starts with a new chapter on the fundamentals of Visual Basic. NET and the SOLIDWORKS API to make the learning process easier for beginners. The rest of the book introduces you to developing macros using the SOLIDWORKS API. The book concludes with a chapter dedicated to some of the author’s favorite source code for you to use as the basis for typical automation procedures. The focus of this book is primarily on the Visual Studio Tools for Applications (VSTA) macro interface. It covers many of the major API functions through practical use cases. It will teach you the fundamentals of Visual Basic. NET as well as SOLIDWORKS SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional SOLIDWORKS Document Manager and Excel API functions. Author Mike Spens has been professionally developing macros for SOLIDWORKS for more than a decade. He has helped numerous companies develop their own programs and streamline their workflows. If you want to learn how to develop your own macros for SOLIDWORKS following best practices and using well written code then this is the perfect book for you. | Automating SOLIDWORKS 2021 Using Macros A guide to creating VSTA macros using the Visual Basic.
