Take control of your sheet metal designs. The SolidWorks 2016: Sheet Metal Design course shows you how to create professional sheet metal parts and assemblies while exploring best practice procedures. You'll also learn how to take control of unfolded models, all the sheet metal settings, and much more. This course is packed with tips and tricks that will make your sheet metal parts bulletproof.
You'll start by working with the Base Flange and Edge Flange commands. All the settings of these commands are covered in detail, but you'll learn more about these commands as well as all the other sheet metal commands throughout the course.
Sheet metal commands are driven by sheet metal settings. So as you adjust sheet metal settings sheet metal operations change and that's why there's more to sheet metal modeling than just the commands. Sheet metal settings in concert with the commands define the quality of your work. So using the skills taught in this course assure your models will unfold properly and perform the way you expect them to.
You'll practice working with Bend Tables, Gauge Tables, and K-Factors, and you learn how they affect your models. You'll understand Bend Allowances and know why bends stretch the part. It's all explained in a simple to understand manner.
You'll also practice applying Bottom Up and Top Down assembly construction and design strategies. With Multi-body Modeling you'll create an entire assembly in a single part file. This simplifies and speeds the design of sheet metal assemblies. You'll see and practice every step.
The Sheet Metal Design course is packed with tips and tricks that will help you improve you accuracy and streamline your work.
