Overview
SolidWorks is a software for solid modelling computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided engineering (CAE). It allows users to sketch out ideas and concepts, explore dimensions and features, and produce detailed drawings and models.
This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at mechatronics, mechanical, electrical, and electronics engineers who wish to use SolidWorks to sketch and produce a detailed drawing of their ideas and concepts.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Understand the fundamentals of SolidWorks.
- Design and create parts, assemblies, and 3D models with SolidWorks.
Format of the Course
- Interactive lecture and discussion.
- Lots of exercises and practice.
- Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
