Assembly methods in Solidworks Design

Assembly is the process of combining or assembling several parts in a certain relationship.

An assembly is a combination of two or more parts, also called components, in one SOLIDWORKS document. We can position and orient components using pairs that form connections between components. Very easy process.

There are 2 assembly methods in Solidworks:

1. Part coordinate system method.

2. Part Method

Part coordinate system method

Click the new icon and part icon to create a new image.

2Click and create a part image.

Then save and name the file part1.

Create a new part and then create a new plane that is 30 mm apart.

Then save and name the file part 2.

After the above process is complete, we enter the stage for assembling part 1 and part 2.

Here are the steps:

Click the New icon and click the assembly icon.

In the menu bar select windows, tile horizontally. So a horizontal tile window will appear

Click the 2D Sketch icon so that origin will be active in windows assembly.

Click on the text part 1, then move the mouse and point it to the origin windows assembly.

Then click the part 2 text icon (the mouse is still depressed) then we move the mouse and point it to the origin window assembly so that it is on the assembly window.

Mate method

The following is an example of an assembly drawing that we will discuss using the mate method:

Click the icon and create the following image below:

Then save and name the box file.

Click and create an image as follows:

Then save and name the cylinder file

After the above process is complete, we enter the stage for assembling the box

and cylinder.

The following are the stages st.

Here are the steps:

Click New and click the assembly icon.

Then in the menu bar, click Insert, Component, From File.

Choose one of the file names that we will display, in this case the file name

Box.

After selecting the file name above, we point the pointer to the Assembly window and then click the left mouse. So a box image will appear in the windows assembly.

We click again on the menu bar Insert, Component, From File. And then choose a file name in this case cylinder. Next, we point the pointer at the assembly window and then click the left mouse. So the cylinder image will appear in the assembly window.

After processing points 7 and 8 are complete, in the assembly window we will get the following image:

The following are the stages for the box and cylinder assembly process:

Click the mate icon or click on the menu bar Insert, Mate. So the following dialog box will appear:

See the image above, if we click Edge 1 and Edge 2, and we select Coincident.

So we get the assembly result image as follows:

Look at the picture above, if we click Face 1 and Face 2 and select it

Concentric (see dialog box below):

So we get the assembly result image as follows:

After the mate process above is complete, we can modify the position of the assembly image again as explained in point 15.

We can modify the assembly point 13 image as shown below:

We can modify the position of assembly point 13 in the following way:

Click both the cylinder edge and the box edge, as in the mate dialog box below, then press checklist.

Sketching with Parametrics in the solidworks

Sketching solidworks in 2D format is done by clicking Sketch in the Command Manager or by activating the Sketch feature. Sketch is the most common type of feature. Sketching in parametric software is different from drawing lines in 2D CAD. SolidWorks sketches are parametric. that is, we can make a sketch which changes accordingly the rules. Apart from 2D sketches, SolidWorks can also create 3D sketches. But 2D sketching is much more widely used. We make a 2D sketch on the selected plane or planar surface and then use it to create shapes for features like Extrude, Revolve, and etc. Relationships in 2D sketches are often made between sketched entities and other edges of the model which may or may not be in the sketch area. In situations where other entities are not in the sketch plane, the entity outside the plane is projected onto the sketch plane in the direction normal to plane sketch. This is not the case for 3D sketching. You can use 3D sketching for the Hole Wizard, routing, welding and complex shapes creation, among other applications. Work with 2D sketch, This Sketch The relationship persists through changes and allows us to move the sketch elements dynamically with the cursor on the screen. Settings to enable or disable showing sketch relationships symbols found in View, Sketch Relations. If we drag one of the infinite corners, the two neighboring lines follow the end point drawn. This is useful when we are experimenting with changes to the sketch as you can see the new and old status sketch. Settings to enable or disable can be found in Tools , Options , Sketch , Draw on Drag.

Basic Concepts Solidworks 3D Solid Geometry

A Solidworks model consists of 3D solid geometry in a part or assembly document. Drawings are created from models, or by drafting views in a drawing document. Typically, you begin with a sketch, create a base feature, and then add more features to your model• A SolidWorks model consists of parts, assemblies, and drawings. • Typically, you begin with a sketch, create a base feature, and then add more features to your model. • You are free to refine your design by adding, changing, or reordering features. • Associativity between parts, assemblies, and drawings assures that changes made to one view are automatically made to all other views. • You can generate drawings or assemblies at any time in the design process. • The SolidWorks software lets you customize functionality to suit your needs. • Click Tools, Options on the main menu to display the available System Options and Document Properties tabs. • The SolidWorks software saves your work for you. The auto recover option automatically saves information about your active part, assembly, or drawing document so you do not lose your work in case of a system crash. To set this option, click Tools, Options. On the System Options tab, click Backups and select Save auto recover info every changes. Specify the number of changes that should occur before information is automatically saved. To organize your SolidWorks window, you can minimize open documents. Click Minimize in the upper right corner of the document border. An icon appears in the lower part of the SolidWorks window. If the icon is not visible, it may be behind another open document. Resize any open documents as necessary. Click Window, Arrange Icons to arrange them at the bottom of the SolidWorks window. • Click Window, Close All to close all open documents. You are prompted to save any unsaved documents.

Engineering Drawing and Related Documentation Practices

Drawing Templates in this section are based upon the American Society of Mechanical Engineers ASME Y14 American National Standard for Engineering Drawing and Related Documentation Practices. These standards represent the drawing practices used by U.S. industry. The ASME Y14 practices supersede the American National Standards Institute ANSI standards. The ASME Y14 Engineering Drawing and Related Documentation Practices are published by The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, New York, NY. References to the current ASME Y14 standards are used with permission. Only a portion of the ASME Y14 American National Standard for Engineering Drawing and Related Documentation Practices are presented in this book. Information presented in Projects 1 - 5 represent sample illustrations of a drawing, view and or dimension type. The ASME Y14 Standards Committee develops and maintains additional Drawing Standards. Members of these committees are from Industry, Department of Defense and Academia. Companies create their own drawing standards based upon one or more of the following: • ASME Y14 • ISO or other International drawing standards • Older ANSI standards • Military standards Of course there is also the “We’ve always done it this way” drawing standard or “Go ask the Drafting Supervisor” drawing standard.

Drawing and Detailing with SolidWorks

Dimension Types in Sketches Solidworks

When you selected the Smart Dimension tool in the shortcut bar while creating the sketch, you may have noticed that there were a few more dimension types Cr e a t e a B a s e E x t r u s io n 9 5 available. The Smart Sketch dimension type will be the type you will use most of the time, but it still wouldn’t hurt to become familiar with all the dimension types: 

Smart Dimension. The Smart Dimension tool will be your most used tool when defining sketch elements. Smart Dimension automatically selects the dimension type that will be used based on the sketch entities that are selected. Not only does Smart Dimension determine the dimension type based on the type of entity selected, but it also can choose another dimension type, such as angles and point-to-point dimensions, based on where you place the dimensions. 

Horizontal Dimension. The Horizontal Dimension tool creates a dimension where the dimension line is horizontal and the extension lines are vertical regardless of the entity selected in the sketch. 

Vertical Dimension. The Vertical Dimension tool creates a dimension where the dimension line is vertical and the extension lines are horizontal regardless of the entity selected in the sketch. 

Ordinate Dimension In ASME Y14.5, ordinate dimensions are referred to as rectangular coordinate dimensions without dimensions lines—that’s quite a mouthful. Luckily, in SolidWorks they are only referred to as ordinate dimensions, and you create them with the Ordinate Dimension tool. This type of dimension is shown with the dimension’s value on the extension line without the addition of dimension lines or arrows. In a sketch, a zero dimension is specified, and then each subsequent dimension is shown with the value of the distance from the zero dimension. Like in smart dimensions, the Ordinate Dimension tool automatically determines the orientation of the dimension based on the entities selected. 

Horizontal Ordinate Dimension The Horizontal Ordinate Dimension tool creates a dimension with the value above the extension line without a dimension line or arrows. It will only place ordinate dimensions that are horizontally related to the selected dimension origin. 

Vertical Ordinate Dimension The Vertical Ordinate Dimension tool creates a dimension with the value next to the extension line without a dimension line or arrows. It will only place ordinate dimensions that are vertically related to the selected dimension origin.

Controlling Colors Layer AutoCad

Each layer has a color associated with it. Using different colors for different layers helps you visually distinguish different information in the drawing. An object’s color also may control appearance during printing. There are two different ways of selecting the color for objects on your screen. The best way is usually to set the layer color and draw the objects on the appropriate layer. This method keeps your drawing organized. The other method is to use the Color Control feature on the Properties panel. To select the Color Control pull-down feature, The three tabs of the Select Color dialog box allow you to choose among different methods to determine the color for your drawing entities. The True Color tab allows you to set color to either RGB, which stands for Red, Green, Blue, the primary colors of light, or HSL, which stands for the Hue, Saturation, and Luminance of the color. The Color Books tab lets you select from among different standard ink manufacturer’s predefined colors so that you can match print colors very closely to the colors you choose on your screen. In this text you will use Index Color (AutoCAD Color Index) as the method for selecting color. Make sure the Index Color tab is selected. The default option for the Color (and also for the Linetype) command is BYLAYER. It’s the best selection because, when you draw a line, the color and linetype will be those of the current layer. Otherwise, the color in your drawing can become very confusing. You will click Cancel to exit the Select Color dialog box without making any changes. The colors for your new objects will continue to be determined by the layer on which they are created. Layers can have associated linetypes, as well as colors, as Layer CENTERLINE does.
