Module 3 part 1
Solid works and its applications
Module objectives:
• Learn how to use solid works effectively
• Apply the knowledge to real life problems
• Learn company standards for machine
drawings
• Design for manufacturing (integrating this
course with Machine tool lab)
Lecture outline
• Why use CAD design (examples of
software)
• Examples of CAD models
• Introduction to solid works
• Class Exercise
• Class project
• Assignment CAD1
Computer Aided Design CAD
•
creating 3 dimensional designs of solids and surfaces
•
these designs can be used for
• Simply a 3D look of a design (for fun)
• Creating manufacturing drawings for technicians to build the
designs
• Used in other applications to create simulations of dynamic
systems
• Used in finite element analysis of structures
Examples
SolidWorks, ProEngineer, AutoCAD, Catia
4:1 bevel gear reducer
Examples
Shaft bearing Mount
Space Elevator
3 dimensional Maze
Solid Works
Three major categories
• Part
– Sketch (2 Dimensions)
– Extrude (3 Dimensions)
• Assembly
• Drawings
Class Exercise
Butterfly valve
