OVERALL CONCEPT When you first install SOLIDWORKS you get a small amount of weldment profiles in the “Default Database”. This can be a problem if you need additional sizes and shapes not currently offered in the existing databases. In this tutorial, we will discuss how to add more content whether from external databases or creating […]
OVERALL CONCEPT You might have gone through the tiring process of adding dimensions with tolerances at Part level and again in Drawing View. It can be time consuming and laborious. In this tutorial we are going to learn how to import those dimensions automatically from Part. STEP-1 ADD DIMENSION WITH TOLERANCE INTO PART 1. Open […]
You can find Task Scheduler on Start->All programs->Solidworks (20xx your version)->Solidworks tools->Solidworks Task Scheduler 1. Find Task Scheduler SW SOLIDWORKS Task Scheduler is a very useful tool that can perform hundreds, if not thousands of tedious tasks that follow simple rules the user specifies. One of the many useful tasks that can be run with […]
Overall Concept: Smart components Smart Components and Smart Fasteners in SolidWorks 3D CAD software bring focused automation to the individual part level for designers and engineers, accelerating your design process, saving time and development costs, and increasing productivity. Smart Components and Smart Fasteners Overview SolidWorks Smart Components and Smart Fasteners have built-in intelligence that enables […]
Overall Concept The SOLIDWORKS Design Library makes it easy to locate and reuse your sketches, and favorite features—preventing you from having to complete the same work twice. Sketch Blocks within your SolidWorks sketches provide a simple, but powerful method of grouping objects together. Blocks are manipulated as one object, including constraining and dimensioning with other […]
SolidWorks Repair 1. Check User Account Control Settings, and toggle / re-boot as required. This program is designed to inhibit changes to the OS, however during an install, or during use of SolidWorks this could impact registry key writing. (aka SolidWorks Settings, and sub-routines) 2. If #1 checks and you haven’t done so yet, Re-Boot […]
Overall Concept Dimensional precision is very important for any project. Let’s say that the dimensions on my views are not coming out to the correct projected value, what could be wrong? In this tutorial we are going to discuss: How we can get correct dimensions value, and Which setting to apply when. Drawing Dimension Types […]
Overall Concept One of the most useful tools embedded inside SOLIDWORKS is the Pack and Go. It works great for file management and making sure your assemblies and drawings keep their references if you need to make a copy or send them out to another user for review. The Zip option of the Pack and […]
Overall Concept Many files and projects created in SolidWorks, the files are often saved in a convenient location, but without any defined folder structure. It is not until the project becomes extensive that users decide to go through the model files to better organize them. A user may want to move model files to new […]
Overall Concept SolidWorks have ability to open and work with dozens of other CAD File types. In this tutorial we are going to talk about How to handle imported part and assembly. We are going to use SKF bearing part as study part. Let’s also learn how to modify imported parts to make it more […]
