Get ready to take your 3D CAD skills to the next level with SOLIDWORKS 2024 Tutorial. Whether you're a student, designer, engineer, or professional who’s new to SOLIDWORKS, this book is the ultimate guide to mastering SOLIDWORKS’ impressive capabilities. And if you're preparing for the Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate - Mechanical Design (CSWA) exam, you're in luck, because this book has got you covered.

Featuring a project-based learning approach and step-by-step instructions, the first six chapters cover the User Interface, CommandManager, Document and System properties, and beyond, with exploration of everything from design intent and design tables to configurations, multi-sheet drawings, BOMs, and Revision tables. Use basic and advanced features to create simple and complex parts and assemblies. And, for the grand finale, chapter 6 takes you through the creation of a robot assembly, complete with all the assemblies and components you'll need.

Information and examples on the five categories in the CSWA exam are embedded throughout the book, but chapters 7-10 specifically focus on preparation for the Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate - Mechanical Design (CSWA) exam, which will confirm you have a foundation in and apprentice knowledge of 3D CAD and engineering principles. And, for those looking to explore the exciting world of additive manufacturing (3D printing), chapter 11 presents the benefits of 3D printing, how it differs from subtractive manufacturing, and the terminology and technology used in low-cost 3D printers.

With clear, concise instructions and desired outcomes listed for each chapter of the tutorial, you'll know exactly what you're working towards every step of the way. Work between multiple documents, features and commands like a pro. Build multiple assemblies that combine over 100 extruded machined parts and components; and develop the skills to create, modify and edit sketches and solid features. Plus, you'll learn how to reuse features, parts, and assemblies through symmetry, patterns, copied components, and more. Start learning by doing and become a 3D CAD expert with SOLIDWORKS 2024 Tutorial.
