SOLIDWORKS is used by millions of designers and engineers at hundreds of thousands of companies. It’s one of the most popular design and engineering software on the market. Known for its range of features and high functionality, SOLIDWORKS is used across multiple professions and industries around the world.  SOLIDWORKS uses parametric design, which is why it’s such an effective tool for designers and engineers. This means that the designer can see how changes will affect its neighboring components, or even the overall solution. For example, if the size of a single component is increased, this would affect the joint or hole it’s attached to. This allows designers to spot and correct issues quickly and easily.

The Introduction to SOLIDWORKS lesson guides you through the creation of a part and a drawing. You create this part and drawing.

This tutorial was a more comprehensive overview of the features of SOLIDWORKS that can be used to create individual parts.

This tutorial introduced users to the Assembly feature, which allws multiple parts to be combined to create larger, more complex creations.
