Book DescriptionDiscover what makes SOLIDWORKS 2025 the leading choice for 3D engineering and product design applications across industries such as aviation, automobile, and consumer product design. Drawing from his experience of teaching over 100,000 global learners and expertise in design thinking, Tayseer Almattar brings a uniquely practical and learner-focused approach to mastering SOLIDWORKS.
Starting with the fundamentals, this new edition walks you through the software interface and introduces you to working with 3D files. Through easy-to-follow exercises and hands-on examples, you'll master essential skills such as sketching, building complex 3D models, generating dynamic and static assemblies, and generating 2D engineering drawings. Each concept will build upon the last to prepare you to take on any design project with confidence. To reinforce your understanding of SOLIDWORKS, the book includes downloadable resources and real-world 3D modeling projects inspired by everyday objects.
By the end of this book, you'll have the expertise to create professional 3D mechanical models using SOLIDWORKS and be well-prepared for the Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate (CSWA) and Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional (CSWP) exams.What you will learn
Grasp the essentials of SOLIDWORKS and the principles of parametric modeling
Craft precise 2D sketches that serve as the foundation for intricate 3D models
Utilize SOLIDWORKS' drawing tools to create standard engineering drawings
Analyze part and assembly designs by assessing mass properties and material choices
Assemble components to create both fixed and movable assembly structures
