SOLIDWORKS Transition Training
|
Prerequisites: Solid Edge experience Description: The aim of the course is to seamlessly transition existing Solid Edge users to SOLIDWORKS, ensuring minimal disruption to current working practices. This course will train the users the most commonly used tools to create some basic part components, to be then used in the assembly environment to create a finished product. This product will then be taken into the drafting environment to produce a detailed production drawing. |
