SolidWorks software the ‘mechanical design’ teaching Abstract: In the ‘mechanical design’ course teaching the application of SolidWorks software, you can stimulate students interest in learning and open their horizons, to develop students creative design capabilities, received good teaching results. Keywords: SolidWorks; mechanical design; Application SolidWorks is the intelligent CAD / CAE / CAM software, the feature-based modeling and parameter of a very powerful and can very easily achieve mechanical parts of the three-dimensional solid modeling, assembly and engineering drawing generation, so in the engineering industry, has broad application prospects. SolidWorks software’s main features are: (1) provides a direct three-dimensional sketches drawn features, in a friendly user interface, such as drawing lines Tu is no longer confined to the same plane, but can sketch in the space directly. In addition, 3D sketches can also serve as the layout of the assembly environment to correlate the design sketches. (2) provides animated features, you can generate physical assembly process, explosion, motion the process of animation files, but also can generate various combinations of the process of animation files. (3) provides a friendly interface. The menu simple, clean graphic design, visualization, see at a glance. System, all the parameters are stored in one option, easy to find and set up. Entity modeling and assembly in full compliance with the natural three-dimensional world, particularly the concept of assembly constraint is very simple and easy to understand. Pairs of entities, zoom, rotate, and other operations can be used in the course in any order, entity selection is very easy and convenient. (4) modeling the rapid, flexible operation, is a one-size-driven and feature-based three-dimensional design software, construction history, after the changes are available, more suitable for students in mechanical practice, the use of cartographic generalization.
