Modeling Solidwork Objects with the Sweep method

Make solid cylinders with Diameter 40 mm and 60 mm R 40mm 60mm length.
Target:
o Make a new part
o Know the sweep method
o Get to know the Sweep dialog box

1. Click the New icon and part icon to create a new part
2. Click the icon, and the 2D sketch icon so we can sketch tools activate.
3. Click the circle icon, and then from the origin create a circle with  R = 50 mm.
4. Click the 2D sketch icon so that the sketch tool is inactive.
5.Click on the icon and click on the 2D sketch icon so we can sketch tools  reactivate.
6. Click the normal top icon and then click the full line icon, then from origin draw a vertical line upwards of 200 mm.
7. Click the 2D sketch icon so that the sketch tool is inactive back.
8. Click the isometry icon, so we get an image like the following:
 9. Click the Sweep icon or on the menu line click insert, base sweep. So the sweep dialog box will be active as follows:
10. From the sweep dialog box above, we click so right will be active Feature Manager Design Tree (FMDT). On FMDT, we click sketch 1 and sketch 2 so that both sketches are read in the group profile and path. Note: Sketch 1 is a sketch for a circle with R 50 mm (functions as profile), and sketch 2 is a 200 mm full line sketch (functions as the path).
11. Finally click the check list, so we will get a solid cylinder of the results sweep process as follows:

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.

Rotate the object

We design changes or we pull the wrong angle, we may need to rotate one or more objects that we make.we can easily rotate an object or objects around the basic point that we specify.Base point is usually the object snap points on the object.To demonstrate the rotation, determine the angle of rotation.By default, the zero is to the right, and increased degrees if counter-clockwise. To change the default, select Format> Units By setting a negative angle, we can change the object clockwise. To rotate the object, choose Rotate from the Modify toolbar and select one object. Alternatively, select the object and then select Rotate from the Modify toolbar. Specify base point: prompt, indicating a point about what we want to play. Specify rotation angle or [Copy / Reference]: prompt, type the angle on the command line. Use the Copy option to make a copy of the original object. Once we use the copy option, the prompt return of the same so that we can determine the angle of ro...

Callouts and Handles in Solidworks

Callout solidworks are boxes of text that appear in the graphic area when we use certain tools. Makes it easy for us to click, move, and adjust parameters dynamically without leaving the graphic area. Callouts help distinguish different entities. For example, info that shows the profile of a sweep and sweep path. We can do it by dragging to reposition it, but we cannot use it to change the property of the entity they are referring to. Some info, such as for chamfers, will display numbers that you can edit or change to manipulate the size of the entity. The long span handle is extruded. Drag the handle to the desired extrusion depth, and the handle covers the length.
