Skills and Knowledge Acquired:
This course will provide students with the skills and knowledge to become a master of Solidworks 3D CAD. Students will learn the basics of Solidworks, such as sketching, extrudes and cuts, multi-body parts, revolved boss/base and cuts, assemblies, swept boss/base, splines and 3D sketches, swept cuts, helixes and threads, modelling from photographs, more complex assemblies and advanced mates, configurations and drawings, importing parts and draft angles, 3D curves and sweeps, ribs and an entire recap of the earlier techniques. Additionally, students will gain an understanding of the wider context of CAD use, such as 3D printing and injection molding.
Contribution to Professional Growth:
This course contributes to professional growth by providing a comprehensive introduction to Solidworks 2021, one of the most popular and powerful 3D CAD programs in the world. Through real-world examples and instruction from a professional Solidworks user, learners will gain the skills needed to create models from scratch, understand the wider context of CAD use, and learn techniques such as sketching, extrudes and cuts, assemblies, 3D sketches, configurations, and drawings. With this course, learners will be able to progress from complete beginner to Solidworks 2021 master in one single course.
Suitability for Further Education:
This course is suitable for preparing further education as it covers a wide range of Solidworks skills, from basic sketching to more complex assemblies. It is taught by a professional Solidworks user and is designed to take you from having no prior knowledge to being able to model almost anything. The course also covers the wider context of CAD use, such as 3D printing and injection molding, and is fully updated for Solidworks 2021. Additionally, the course includes resources such as downloadable models and drawings, and on-hand support for any questions.
