Mastering SolidWorks

Revised and Updated: The Definitive Hands-On Guide to Solid Modeling with SolidWorks 2021

Fully updated for SolidWorks 2021, Mastering SolidWorks, Third Edition, thoroughly illuminates solid modeling CAD techniques for developing parts, assemblies, and drawings. Additional specializations, SolidWorks toolboxes, and manufacturing techniques are also covered, including sheet metal, injection molding, and animation. New illustrations reflect SolidWorks 2021 throughout, and this edition fully reflects changes in workflow since SolidWorks 2014.

Mastering SolidWorks can develop CAD skills in students with little or no solid modeling expertise, help more advanced students hone specialized skills, and prepare any SolidWorks user for SolidWorks Associate (CSWA) or Professional (CSWP) certification. Written especially for beginners and intermediate users, it will also be valuable to experienced users requiring specialized knowledge, to companies training their own professionals, and to all schools teaching engineering, design, or 3D modeling.
