{"product_id":"9781585039227","title":"Engineering Design with SolidWorks 2015 and Video Instruction","description":"Engineering Design with SolidWorks 2015 and video instruction is written to assist students, designers, engineers and professionals. The book provides a solid foundation in SolidWorks by utilizing projects with step-by-step instructions for the beginner to intermediate SolidWorks user. Explore the user interface, CommandManager, menus, toolbars and modeling techniques to create parts, assemblies and drawings in an engineering environment.\u003cp\u003eFollow the step-by-step instructions and develop multiple parts and assemblies that combine machined, plastic and sheet metal components. Formulate the skills to create, modify and edit sketches and solid features.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLearn the techniques to reuse features, parts and assemblies through symmetry, patterns, copied components, Design Tables, Bills of Materials, Custom Properties and Configurations. Address various SolidWorks analysis tools and Intelligent Modeling techniques along with Additive Manufacturing (3D printing). Learn by doing not just by reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesired outcomes and usage competencies are listed for each project. Know your objective up front. Follow the steps in Projects 1 - 9 to achieve the design goals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReview Project 10 on Additive Manufacturing (3D printing) and its benefits and features. Understand the terms and technology used in low cost 3D printers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWork between multiple documents, features, commands and custom properties that represent how engineers and designers utilize SolidWorks in industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReview individual features, commands and tools with the Video Instruction. The projects contain exercises. The exercises analyze and examine usage competencies. Collaborate with leading industry suppliers such as SMC Corporation of America, Boston Gear and 80\/20 Inc.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCollaborative information translates into numerous formats such as paper drawings, electronic files, rendered images and animations. On-line intelligent catalogs guide designers to the product that meets both their geometric requirements and performance functionality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe author developed the industry scenarios by combining his own industry experience with the knowledge of engineers, department managers, vendors and manufacturers. These professionals are directly involved with SolidWorks every day. Their responsibilities go far beyond the creation of just a 3D model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book is designed to compliment the SolidWorks Tutorials contained in SolidWorks 2015.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eView the provided videos in the book to enhance the user experience. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolidWorks Interface \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2D Sketching, Sketch Planes and Sketch tools \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3D Features and Design Intent \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreating an Assembly \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFundamentals in Drawings Part 1 \u0026amp; Part 2 \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SDC Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47064010785008,"sku":"9781585039227","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781585039227_p0.jpg?v=1763805826","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781585039227","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
