Technical Drawing 101 with AutoCAD 2021

Technical Drawing 101 with AutoCAD 2021

Technical Drawing 101 covers topics ranging from the most basic such as making freehand multiview sketches of machine parts to the advanced—creating an AutoCAD dimension style containing the style settings defined by the ASME Y14. 5-2009 Dimensioning and Tolerancing standard. But unlike the massive technical drawing reference texts on the market Technical Drawing 101 aims to present just the right mix of information and projects that can be reasonably covered by faculty and assimilated by students in one semester. Both mechanical and architectural projects are introduced to capture the interest of more students and to offer a broader appeal. The authors have also created extensive video training (137 videos 18. 5 hours total) that is included with every copy of the book. In these videos the authors start off by getting students comfortable with the user interface and demonstrating how to use many of AutoCAD's commands and features. The videos progress to more advanced topics where the authors walk students through completing several of the projects in the book. The CAD portion of the text incorporates drafting theory whenever possible and covers the basics of drawing setup (units limits and layers) the tools of the Draw Modify and Dimension toolbars and the fundamentals of 3D modeling. By focusing on the fundamental building blocks of CAD Technical Drawing 101 provides a solid foundation for students going on to learn advanced CAD concepts and techniques (paper space viewports xrefs annotative scaling etc. ) in intermediate CAD courses. In recognition of the diverse career interests of our students Technical Drawing 101 includes projects in which students create working drawings for a mechanical assembly as well as for an architectural project. We include architectural drawing because our experience has shown that many (if not most) first-semester drafting students are interested in careers in the architectural design field and that a traditional technical drawing text which focuses solely on mechanical drawing projects holds little interest for these students. The multidisciplinary approach of this text and its supporting materials are intended to broaden the appeal of the curriculum and increase student interest and it is hoped future enrollments. | Technical Drawing 101 with AutoCAD 2021

Virtual Machining Using CAMWorks 2020

Virtual Machining Using CAMWorks 2020

This book is written to help you learn the core concepts and steps used to conduct virtual machining using CAMWorks. CAMWorks is a virtual machining tool designed to increase your productivity and efficiency by simulating machining operations on a computer before creating a physical product. CAMWorks is embedded in SOLIDWORKS as a fully integrated module. CAMWorks provides excellent capabilities for machining simulations in a virtual environment. Capabilities in CAMWorks allow you to select CNC machines and tools extract or create machinable features define machining operations and simulate and visualize machining toolpaths. In addition the machining time estimated in CAMWorks provides an important piece of information for estimating product manufacturing cost without physically manufacturing the product. The book covers the basic concepts and frequently used commands and options you’ll need to know to advance from a novice to an intermediate level CAMWorks user. Basic concepts and commands introduced include extracting machinable features (such as 2. 5 axis features) selecting machine and tools defining machining parameters (such as feed rate) generating and simulating toolpaths and post processing CL data to output G-codes for support of CNC machining. The concepts and commands are introduced in a tutorial style presentation using simple but realistic examples. Both milling and turning operations are included. One of the unique features of this book is the incorporation of the CL (cutter location) data verification by reviewing the G-codes generated from the toolpaths. This helps you understand how the G-codes are generated by using the respective post processors which is an important step and an ultimate way to confirm that the toolpaths and G-codes generated are accurate and useful. This book is intentionally kept simple. It primarily serves the purpose of helping you become familiar with CAMWorks in conducting virtual machining for practical applications. This is not a reference manual of CAMWorks. You may not find everything you need in this book for learning CAMWorks. But this book provides you with basic concepts and steps in using the software as well as discussions on the G-codes generated. After going over this book you will develop a clear understanding in using CAMWorks for virtual machining simulations and should be able to apply the knowledge and skills acquired to carry out machining assignments and bring machining consideration into product design in general. | Virtual Machining Using CAMWorks 2020

SOLIDWORKS CAM is a parametric feature-based machining simulation software offered as an add-in to SOLIDWORKS. It integrates design and manufacturing in one application connecting design and manufacturing teams through a common software tool that facilitates product design using 3D solid models. By carrying out machining simulation the machining process can be defined and verified early in the product design stage. Some if not all of the less desirable design features of part manufacturing can be detected and addressed while the product design is still being finalized. In addition machining-related problems can be detected and eliminated before mounting a stock on a CNC machine and manufacturing cost can be estimated using the machining time estimated in the machining simulation. This book is intentionally kept simple. It’s written to help you become familiar with the practical applications of conducting machining simulations in SOLIDWORKS CAM. This book provides you with the basic concepts and steps needed to use the software as well as a discussion of the G-codes generated. After completing this book you should have a clear understanding of how to use SOLIDWORKS CAM for machining simulations and should be able to apply this knowledge to carry out machining assignments on your own product designs. In order to provide you with a more comprehensive understanding of machining simulations the book discusses NC (numerical control) part programming and verification as well as introduces applications that involve bringing the G-code post processed by SOLIDWORKS CAM to a HAAS CNC mill and lathe to physically cut parts. This book points out important practical factors when transitioning from virtual to physical machining. Since the machining capabilities offered in the 2021 version of SOLIDWORKS CAM are somewhat limited this book introduces third-party CAM modules that are seamlessly integrated into SOLIDWORKS including CAMWorks HSMWorks and Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS. This book covers basic concepts frequently used commands and options required for you to advance from a novice to an intermediate level SOLIDWORKS CAM user. Basic concepts and commands introduced include extracting machinable features (such as 2. 5 axis features) selecting a machine and cutting tools defining machining parameters (such as feed rate spindle speed depth of cut and so on) generating and simulating toolpaths and post processing CL data to output G-code for support of physical machining.

Virtual machining is the use of simulation-based technology in particular computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software to aid engineers in defining simulating and visualizing machining operations for parts or assembly in a computer or virtual environment. By using virtual machining the machining process can be defined and verified early in the product design stage. Some if not all of the less desirable design features in the context of part manufacturing such as deep pockets holes or fillets of different sizes or cutting on multiple sides can be detected and addressed while the product design is still being finalized. In addition machining-related problems such as undesirable surface finish surface gouging and tool or tool holder colliding with stock or fixtures can be identified and eliminated before mounting a stock on a CNC machine at shop floor. In addition manufacturing cost which constitutes a significant portion of the product cost can be estimated using the machining time estimated in the virtual machining simulation. Virtual machining allows engineers to conduct machining process planning generate machining toolpaths visualize and simulate machining operations and estimate machining time. Moreover the toolpaths generated can be converted into NC codes to machine functional parts as well as die or mold for part production. In most cases the toolpath is generated in a so-called CL data format and then converted to G-codes using respective post processors. | Virtual Machining Using CAMWorks 2023 CAMWorks as a SOLIDWORKS Module
