This class introduces the student to 2D drafting in a SolidWorks 3D modeling environment. Students will focus solely on drafting techniques for both SolidWorks parts and assemblies. This will include functionality ranging from drawing and document setup up through custom and standard view creation.

Prerequisites:
To ensure a consistent learning experience for all students, we have established the following prerequisites for the training course:

• SolidWorks Essentials

Lack of Mechanical Design and Windows® experience is very difficult to overcome in the classroom environment. Students who lack one or both of these prerequisites should realize the impact that it will have on their learning experience. Also, minimal exposure to SolidWorks prior to the class can make a substantial positive impact.

Course Materials:
The SolidWorks Drawings training guide will be supplied at the beginning of class and is yours to keep.

Topics Covered:

Drawing Sheets and Views Part Preparations for Detailing Drawing Views and Settings Center Marks and Centerlines Dimensions Adding Annotations Sheet Formats and Templates Title Block Areas Assembly Drawing Views BOMs and Design Tables Custom BOM Templates Performance and Display Issues Large Assembly Mode Detached Drawings Changing Drawing References DimXpert and TolAnalysis Plus/Minus of Geometric Tolerance for Models Stacked Tolerance Analysis

At Course Completion:
Students will know how to utilize SolidWorks to create 2D drawings of production level parametric models of parts and assemblies. They will be familiar with the SolidWorks user interface as well as tools and techniques for creating quality 2D representations of 3D solid models.
