Course Overview
The goal of this course is to introduce SOLIDWORKS designers to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. By using 3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS software, designers create, store, manage and collaborate with 3D models in a seamless cloud-based platform.
Everything a designer creates using the SOLIDWORKS Connected software can easily be saved to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform for team communication and collaboration.
The focus of this course is on the fundamental skills and concepts central to collaboration and teamwork during the design process.
NOTE: This course is available as part of the Silver, Gold & Platinum Training Passports.
What You'll Learn
Course Agenda
Lesson 1: Getting Started with the 3DEXPERIENCE platform
Lesson 1 will help all attendees successfully login to the 3DExperience platform and how to navigate the interface. Time will be spent using the 3DExperience User Assistance and the Welcome app.
Lesson 2: SOLIDWORKS Connected
During this lesson, attendees will open and edit a part using SOLIDWORKS, set cloud data storage preferences and then save this file to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. File properties will be reviewed, maturity states outlined and users will be shown how to search the platform for other shared files. Attendees will also experience adding a part to an assembly file and see how this can be saved to the platform along with drawings in the same process. The use of Bookmarks, for efficient folder-like file navigation, will also be introduced.
Lesson 3: Revising Parts
The focus of this lesson is to cover how revisions are managed within the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Dashboards and revision schemes will be covered and files will transition through a revision scheme.
