1. Name of Course: SOLID MODELING
Course Code: (BDA 30903)
2. Synopsis: This course will provide students with skill and competency to produce
3D modeling by using SolidWorks software. Students will be exposed to
develop 3D models through different kind of techniques, assembling
different parts, make simulation from the assembled parts in order to
verify and validate the mechanism and finally produce the technical
drawing. Furthermore, students also will be exposed to project drawing
where it will give advantages to them before work in the industrial.

Sketches and Applied Features
Sketched Feature:
Is based upon a 2D sketch. Generally that sketch
is transformed into a solid by extrusion, rotation,
sweeping or lofting.
Applied Feature:
Created directly on the solid model. Fillets and
chamfers are examples of this type of feature.

In-Context reference
Referenced files do not have to be stored with that references them. In most
practical applications, the referenced documents are stored in multiple
locations on the computer or network. SolidWorks provides several tools to
determine the references that exist and their location.

Mechanics of sketching
To sketch geometry, there are two
techniques can be used:
1. Click – click.
Select line. Position the cursor where you want the line to start. Click (press
and release) the left mouse button. Move the cursor where you want the
line to end. A preview of the sketch entities will follow the cursor like a
rubber band. Click the left mouse button a second time.
Remove Relations
To remove a relations simple select and delete the constraint symbol.
Alternately select the entity in question and delete the unwanted constraint
from the Existing Relations in the property manager.
Dimension
It is used to define the size.
In SolidWorks, dimensions are not just static
numbers that tell you the size of something.
Instead, the dimensions are used to change the
size and shape of the model.
The type of dimension is determined by the items
on which you click. For example, if you pick an arc
the system creates a radial dimension. If you pick
a circle, you get a diameter dimension, while
selecting two parallel lines creates a linear
dimension between them.

Lesson 4
Part Assembly
INTRODUCTION
Part files, as you have learned,
typically contain one contiguous
solid modeling. Assembly files can
contain more than one part.
Assembly files give you the
capability of assembling the parts
you have created, putting the parts
together as if you were actually
building the assembly in real life.
The following figure shows an
example of an assembly. It is the
example you will use to learn about
assemblies in this lesson.
LEARNING OUTCOMES

1. Open an existing part
Move a component. This can also be used to rotate components that have
rotational degrees of freedom.
Rotate the component in one of several ways: about its centerpoint; about
an entity such as an edge or axis; or by some angular value about the assembly X,
Y, or Z axes.
7. Move
Click on the component and drag it to move it closer to where it will be mated.
Mating Relationships
Mates are solved together as a system. The order in which you add mates does
not matter; all mates are solved at the same time. You can suppress mates just as
you can suppress features.
Mate Pop-up Toolbar
The Mate Pop-up Toolbar is used to make selections
easier by displaying the available mate types on the
screen. The mate types that are available vary by
geometry selection and mirror those that appear in the
PropertyManager. The dialog appears on the graphics but
can be dragged anywhere.
Adding Mate Relationship
To add mate relationships, perform the following
steps;
Coincident mate
Planar faces become coplanar (flush against each other). Edges or points can also
be used in coincident mates.
You can add coincident mates between two planar faces as shown the example
below:
Coincident
mate
Face 1 Face 2
Concentric mate
Cylindrical faces become aligned along their axes. Conical and spherical faces, as
well as axes, can be mated concentric.
Concentric mate
You can add concentric mates between two cylindrical faces as shown the example
below:

Parallel and Perpendicular mate
You can add parallel or perpendicular mates between two faces as shown the
example below:
Parallel mate
Face 2
Perpendicular
Face 1 mate
Distance mate
Similar to parallel, but the distance between faces can be specified. Use this mate
for specifying clearances.
You can add distance mates between the two faces as shown below. You must type
a distance value in the Distance box in the Mate PropertyManager. The default
value is the current distance between the selected entities
Face 1
Face 2
Distance mate
Angle mate
You can add an angle mate between two faces as shown the example below: You
must type an angle value in the Angle box in the Mate PropertyManager. The
default value is the current angle between the selected entities
Face 1
Face 2
Angle mate
Tangent mate
All types of faces can be made tangent to each other, with the exception of two
planar faces, which would be considered a coincident mate.
You can add tangent mates between planar and cylindrical faces as shown the
example below:
Face 1
Face 2
Tangent

Alignment Conditions
When two components are mated, such as with a coincident mating relationship,
the components could be either aligned or anti-aligned. This alignment refers to
the side of the selected faces the part geometry is on. If the geometry is not on the
same side, the components are anti-aligned. This is depicted by the following
figure.

to remember is that the material properties of each component are
