Modeling Complex Surfaces for Product Design in SolidWorks

via Pluralsight

Overview

Throughout these lessons, we'll be highlighting in-context modeling techniques while using surfacing components to create complex surface models for product design. Software required: SolidWorks 2012.

Throughout these lessons, we'll be highlighting in-context modeling techniques while using surfacing components to create complex surface models for product design. You will be exposed to various ways to take advantage of SolidWorks' feature tree and surface modeling tools in order to create robust, editable design models. We'll also be using assemblies, parts, images, and sketches in order to create master sketches to drive all the parts that we'll be creating in this tutorial. After watching this tutorial you'll be able to use a variety of references to create complex surface parts in the design of a multi-part model inside of SolidWorks. Some of the key takeaways from watching this training include learning how to create multiple parts in assemblies that reference one another while use orthographic master sketches. You'll also be able to recognize and setup conditions for various surfacing tools in order to create complex geometries while considering design changes, tooling, and manufacturing methods in the design of your parts. By the end of the training, you will have learned how to begin to detail surface models for design intent and product visualizations. Software required: SolidWorks 2012.
