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 pa...

Autocad : Use Cursor Help in Dialog Boxes

 


This underused feature is quite helpful. Most dialog boxes in AutoCAD have a questionmark button on their title bars, next to the close box X. Click the ? button, and the cursor will display a question-mark icon next to the pointer. Now, click any part of the dialog box you’re interested in querying. A tooltip appears that displays information about the control you selected. This is a great way to learn which system variables the Graphical User Interface (GUI) elements control. It’s also much faster than going through standard Help. For example, open the Options dialog (right-clicking the command line is a quick way to get to Options). Select the 3D Modeling tab, and click the question-mark button. Then, click the Visual Style While Creating 3D Objects drop-down list. The tooltip describes this dropdown’s function in more verbose prose, and it also reveals the name of the associated system variable — DRAGVS, in this example.

    2. If you want your project to be nice work, only real good professional software can do this - therefore, you need to be able to know how to work these software.. . Abobe Flash can do what you're looking for.. It isn't free though, free trial of course. Any program similar that is "free" would be terrible quality and very fake looking.. . http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/?promoid=BPDEE

    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 entit...
