Beginner's Guide to SOLIDWORKS 2017 - Level II (Including unique access code)

Beginner’s Guide to SOLIDWORKS 2017 – Level II starts where Beginner’s Guide – Level I ends following the same easy to read style and companion video instruction but this time covering advanced topics and techniques. The purpose of this book is to teach advanced techniques including sheet metal surfacing how to create components in the context of an assembly and reference other components (Top-down design) propagate design changes with SOLIDWORKS’ parametric capabilities mold design welded structures and more while explaining the basic concepts of each trade to allow you to understand the how and why of each operation. The author uses simple examples to allow you to better understand each command and environment as well as to make it easier to explain the purpose of each step maximizing the learning time by focusing on one task at a time. This book is focused on the processes to complete the modeling of a part instead of focusing on individual software commands or operations which are generally simple enough to learn. At the end of this book you will have acquired enough skills to be highly competitive when it comes to designing with SOLIDWORKS and while there are many less frequently used commands and options available that will not be covered in this book rest assured that those covered are most of the commands used every day by SOLIDWORKS designers. The author strived hard to include many of the commands required in the Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional Advanced and Expert exams as listed on the SOLIDWORKS website. | Beginner's Guide to SOLIDWORKS 2017 - Level II (Including unique access code)

Machining Simulation Using SOLIDWORKS CAM 2021

Machining Simulation Using SOLIDWORKS CAM 2021

This book will teach you all the important concepts and steps used to conduct machining simulations using SOLIDWORKS CAM. 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. 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 data verification by reviewing the G-code generated from the toolpaths. This helps you understand how the G-code is generated by using the respective post processors which is an important step and an excellent way to confirm that the toolpaths and G-code generated are accurate and useful. | Machining Simulation Using SOLIDWORKS CAM 2021

Autodesk Inventor 2024 A Tutorial Introduction

Autodesk Inventor 2024 A Tutorial Introduction

This unique text and video set presents a thorough introduction to Autodesk Inventor for anyone with little or no prior experience with CAD software. It can be used in virtually any setting from four year engineering schools to on-the-job use or self-study. Unlike other books of its kind it begins at a very basic level and ends at a very advanced level. It’s perfect for anyone interested in learning Autodesk Inventor quickly and effectively using a learning by doing approach. Additionally the extensive videos that are included with this book make it easier than ever to learn Inventor by clearly demonstrating how to use its tools. The philosophy behind this book is that learning computer aided design programs is best accomplished by emphasizing the application of the tools. Students also seem to learn more quickly and retain information and skills better if they are actually creating something with the software program. The driving force behind this book is learning by doing. The instructional format of this book centers on making sure that students learn by doing and that students can learn from this book on their own. In fact this is one thing that differentiates this book from others: the emphasis on being able to use the book for self-study. The presentation of Autodesk Inventor is structured so that no previous knowledge of any CAD program is required. This book uses the philosophy that Inventor is mastered best by concentrating on applying the program to create different types of solid models starting simply and then using the power of the program to progressively create more complex solid models. The Drawing Activities at the end of each chapter are more complex iterations of the part developed by each chapter’s objectives. Since CAD programs are highly visual there are graphical illustrations showing how to use the program. This reinforces the learn by doing philosophy since a student can see exactly what the program shows and then step through progressive commands to implement the required operations. Rather than using a verbal description of the command a screen capture of each command is replicated. Included Videos Each book includes access to extensive video training created by author Scott Hansen. The videos follow along with the table of contents of the book. Each chapter has one or more videos in which the author demonstrates how to use the tools that are covered in that chapter. Most videos follow an exercise from start to finish. The exercises created in the video are very similar to the exercise found in the corresponding chapter. Throughout the videos Scott Hansen describes how to perform each step the reason behind these steps and some of the other options available with the various tools. The author's clear and simple description of each exercise is a perfect companion to the text and makes learning Autodesk Inventor easier than ever. There are thirty-four videos with four hours and thirty-nine minutes of training in total. To access the videos you will need to follow the instruction included on the inside front cover to redeem the access code included with each book. Redeeming the code will add this book to your SDC Publications Library and allow you to access the videos whenever you want. | Autodesk Inventor 2024 A Tutorial Introduction

Programming and Engineering Computing with MATLAB 2021

Programming and Engineering Computing with MATLAB 2021

This book is designed for undergraduate students completely new to programming with MATLAB. Case studies and examples are used extensively throughout this book and are at the core of what makes this book so unique. The author believes that the best way to learn MATLAB is to study programs written by experienced programmers and that the quality of these example programs determines the quality of the book. The examples in this book are carefully designed to teach you MATLAB programming as well as to inspire within you your own problem solving potential. Most of the examples used in this book are designed to solve a whole class of problems rather than a single specific problem. A learn by doing teaching approach is used all through the book. You are guided to tackle a problem using MATLAB commands first and then the commands are explained line by line. This process of learning through hands on experience is one of the most efficient and pain-free ways of learning MATLAB. This approach together with the extensive use of ordered textboxes figures and tables greatly reduces the size of the book while still providing you with a book that’s comprehensive and easy to follow. The first chapter of this book introduces the MATLAB programming environment and familiarizes you with MATLAB’s core functionality. Chapters two through nine discuss basic MATLAB functionalities in a progressive and comprehensive way. The chapters start out simple and build in complexity as you advance through the book. Chapters ten through thirteen cover advanced topics that are particularly useful in college programs. Each chapter consists of sections each covering a topic and providing one or more examples. Related MATLAB functions are organized at the end of a section. Additional exercise problems are provided at the end of chapters two through nine. Examples in each section are presented in a consistent way. An example is usually described first followed by a MATLAB script. Any resulting text and graphics output (and in some cases inputs) that are produced from running a script are presented and discussed. Finally the remainder of each section is devoted to explaining the purpose of the lines of the script. Who this book is for This book is developed mainly for undergraduate engineering students. It may be used in courses such as Computers in Engineering or others that use MATLAB as a software platform. It can also be used as a self-study book for learning MATLAB. College level engineering examples are used in this book. Background knowledge for these engineering examples is illustrated as thoroughly as possible. | Programming and Engineering Computing with MATLAB 2021
