    Solid work modelling

     INTRODUCTION:-
    • Computer-aided design (CAD) is the use of computer systems to aid in the creation,
    modification, analysis, or optimization of a design.

    • In mechanical design it is known as mechanical design automation (MDA) or


    computer-aided drafting (CAD)

    2D CAD Drawing
    3D CAD Model
     Commercial Software's
     Autodesk AutoCAD
     Autodesk Inventor
     Dassault CATIA
     Dassault SolidWorks
     PTC Pro/ENGINEER MODEL DESIGNED IN
    SOLIDWORKS

     The Importance of CAD Models in Manufacturing:-


    • Before CAD, designers used paper, pencils, rulers, compasses, and other tools to go about
    their drafting. It was cumbersome, time consuming, and a nuisance at times especially when
    there were changes being made to the design.

    • During the 1960s CAD was eventually developed originally for the purpose of designing
    automobiles.
    • After great success, the technology spread to other sectors in the manufacturing industry,
    and soon reached the electronics and aerospace industry.
     CAD IN AUTOMOBILES.

     Dassault Systems: 3D Software Company
    • Dassault to develop a new generation of computer-aided "The 3DEXPERIENCE
    Company", is a European multinational software company that develops 3D design,
    CAD/CAM software.
    • Dassault Group created in 1981 by Avions Marcel
    • 1997: Dassault Systems acquired SolidWorks, a developer of mechanical design
    solutions
     SolidWorks:-
    • SOLIDWORKS is a solid modeling computer-aided
    design (CAD) computer program. SolidWorks is
    published by Dassault Systems.

    • SolidWorks Corporation was founded in


    December 1993 by Massachusetts Institute of
    Technology graduate Jon Hirschtick.

    • SolidWorks released its first product


    SOLIDWORKS 95, in November 1995.

    • According to the publisher, over two million


    The SolidWorks interface
    engineers and designers at more than 165,000
    companies were using SolidWorks as of 2013.
    Solidworks Features
    Solidworks Features
    Dimension constraints
     Define size
     Define location

    Needs more information to control the


    geometry
     Sketch can have three states
    • Under defined
    • Fully defined
    • Over defined

    o The color blue: means under defined


    o Black color: indicates fully defined
    Solid work has all the information it need for the geometry.
    o Over defined
     Solid work has too much information and is confused
    Yellow :- indicates over defined
    • Example (10mm extrude boss and cut
