Preface
Solid Edge 2021 is a parametric (history based) and synchronous technology solid modeling tool that not only unites the three-dimensional (3D) parametric features with two-dimensional (2D) tools, but also addresses every design-through-manufacturing process. The Mechanical Designers functionality of the software makes it faster to design mechanical components for manufacturing. The software is capable of performing analysis with an ease. Due to a long journey of development in software, this solid modeling tool is remarkably user-friendly and it allows you to be productive from day one.
The Solid Edge 2021 Black Book is the second edition of our series on Solid Edge. This book is written to help beginners in creating some of the most complex solid models. The book follows a step by step methodology. In this book, we have tried to give real-world examples with real challenges in designing. We have tried to reduce the gap between university use of Solid Edge and industrial use of Solid Edge. The book covers almost all the information required by a learner to master the Solid Edge. The book starts with sketching and ends at advanced topics like Sheetmetal, Rendering, and Simulation Studies. Some of the salient features of this book are :
In-Depth explanation of concepts
Every new topic of this book starts with the explanation of the basic concepts. In this way, the user becomes capable of relating the things with real world.
Topics Covered
Every chapter starts with a list of topics being covered in that chapter. In this way, the user can easily find the topics of his/her interest easily.
Instruction through illustration
The instructions to perform any action are provided by maximum number of illustrations so that the user can perform the actions discussed in the book easily and effectively. There are about 1350 illustrations that make the learning process effective.
Tutorial point of view
At the end of concepts explanation, the tutorial make the understanding of users firm and long lasting. Almost each chapter of the book has tutorials that are real world projects. Moreover most of the tools in this book are discussed in the form of tutorials.
Project
Projects and exercises are provided to students for practicing.
For Faculty
If you are a faculty member, then you can ask for video tutorials on any of the topic, exercise, tutorial, or concept.
Formatting Conventions Used in the Text
All the key terms like name of button, tool, drop-down etc. are kept bold.
