1. 3D design

This week I learned to use Solidworks, and I designed my first piece in Solidworks.

Research

Design of a piece in Solidworks

New piece

To select "file" + "new" + "piece"

To select "croquis" + the form of the piece, in this case "rectangulo de centro"

Use view "normal a". To assign the measuments, use "cota inteligente", and assign the correct dimentions in each plane.

Add dimentions>

To select "operaciones" + "Extruir saliente/base" + "añadir dimensiones"

Cut a piece

To select a face of the piece and use view "normal a"

To select the form of the piece, in this case "rectangulo"

To add dimentions using "cota inteligente"

To select "operaciones" + "extruir corte". With the arrow to indicate the depth of the cut, in this case the whole piece.

Place one piece on top of another

To select the face of the piece where the new piece will be. Use view "normal a"

To draw the new piece on the work face of the first piece, to select "croquis" + In this case a "circulo"

Use view "normal a". To assign the measuments, use "cota inteligente", and assign the correct dimentions in each plane.

Design of a piece in Fusion 360

New piece

To select "Diseño" + "crear boceto"

To select "rectangulo" + "rectangulo central", to add dimentions

Volume

To select "Extruir", to add dimentions of height or depth, as well as demoulding dimentions, in this case were: 110mm and -5 degrees/p>

Rounding edges

To select "modificar" + To select 4 edges, to apply radio value. In this case: 30 degrees

Out of object

To select "Desfase", and to add dimentions. In this case: -20mm

Remove material

To select face of the object, then to select "modificar" + "vaciar", and to add dimentions of the thickness of the walls

Making slots

To select face of the object, to select "Diseño" + "crear boceto" + "slot", and to add dimentions of slot (200, 25)
