Fundamentals of Drawing Engineering Design with SOLIDWORKS® 2016
- Rename parts and drawings.
- Insert a Center of Mass point.
Project Situation
The individual parts and assembly are completed. What is the next step? You are required
to create drawings for various internal departments, namely production, purchasing,
engineering, inspection and manufacturing. Each drawing contains unique information
and specific footnotes. Example: A manufacturing drawing would require information on
assembly, Bill of Materials, fabrication techniques and references to other relative
documents.
Project Overview
Generate two drawings in this project:
- GUIDE drawing with a customized Sheet Format.
- GUIDE-ROD assembly drawing with a Bill of Materials.
The GUIDE drawing contains three Standard Orthographic views and an Isometric view.
Do you remember what the three Principle Orthographic Standard views are? They are
Top, Front and Right side (Third Angle Projection).
Three new views are introduced in this project: Detailed view, Section view and
Auxiliary view. Orient the views to fit the drawing sheet. Incorporate the GUIDE
dimensions into the drawing with inserted Annotations.
