 INTRODUCTION

• SolidWorks is a solid modeling computer-aided design

(CAD) and computer-aided engineering (CAE)
computer program that runs primarily on Microsoft
Windows. While it is possible to run SolidWorks on
MacOS, it is not supported by SolidWorks. SolidWorks
is published by Dassault Systèmes.
 ABOUT SOLIDWORKS
 SolidWorks is a solid modeling computer-aided design (CAD)and computer-aided
engineering(CAE) computer program that runson Microsoft Windows

 SolidWorks is published by Dassault Systèmes.

 Over two million engineers and designers at more than 165,000companies were using
SolidWorks as of 2013
 Founded in December 1993 by Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology graduate Jon
Hirschtick
 Its first product SolidWorks 95, in November 1995.

 Latest released SolidWorks 2017 in September 19, 2016

Construction and
Designing
Designing of Bolt

• First of all select the plane, here we have selected front plane and turn it to normal.
•  
• After that constructed a hexagon of mean diameter of 15 mm.

• Then Extrude it outward blind to 8 mm.

• Chamfer the bolt head using extrude cut tool from feature at an angle of 45 degree.

• After that construct a concentric circle of 10 mm in the center of hexagon.

• After that extrude the hexagon to 10 mm outward by selecting Extrude Boss from the features.
• Extrude the 10 mm circle outward to make stem of bolt

• Use wizard tool > thread and select face to or edge to start and the select metric tap and then
thread type M6x1.0 , choose up to selection to define thread length on bolt .
• After all the above process select all faces and then from appearance choose material (metal > steel
> polished steel).
Construction of Bolt
Designing of Nut

• Select the File > New to open new file for designing nut (hexagonal nut).
• Select plane from plane > front plane and change to normal.
• Select sketch the hexagon (sketch > hexagon).
• Draw hexagon of mean diameter of 15 mm .
• Extrude the hexagon to 10 mm outward.
• Chamfer the edges extrude cut tool from feature at an angle 45 degree.
• Now go to sketch select center circle and draw circle at the center of hexagonal face of
extrude body of 10 mm.
• Go to feature tool and select extrude cut option then select through in extrude range.
• Make threads using wizard to as given below.
• Select thread then select edge for the starting point of thread the select ending point by
selecting of up to selection in drop down menu of thread.
• Select M6x1.0 as thread type then select extruded cut thread.
• Click OK to exit thread.
• Save the file as Nut.

Conclusion

• This report covered the preview of our learning path and study materials. The use of
SolidWorks has many advantages. It can help to reduce the time it takes to produce
the drawing needed in the work environment.
• Construction of CAD modeling of nut and bolt can be made by Solidworks.
• SolidWorks software is the most amazing range of mechanical computer aided design
tool it is now considered to be the best according to industry standards that can be
obtained for a wide array of designing Mechanical Engineering Services and other
industrial purposes.
