Cut Design Time by 50% | Proven SOLIDWORKS Hacks, Tips, and Tricks
Learning to design and engineer with SOLIDWORKS is a journey that starts with the basics. Knowing how to cut design time in half is when your skills go to the next level.
You often start by learning how to make a part assembly or drawing that works for what you need in that moment, without concern for efficiency. Eventually, with the basics mastered, we may need to revisit those core skills with a focus on efficiency and speed to become better, faster, and more efficient at doing our jobs. Like a highly trained athlete, you look to squeeze out every extra second from your performance; you can do so through advanced training and techniques.
In this webinar, TriMech Solutions Consultants Joe Perera and Ryan Burgess are going to review several features, shortcuts, and workflows to help you increase your productivity within SOLIDWORKS from the first sketch to final assembly and documentation. We will cover commands and features to speed up your part modeling, assembly modeling, and drawing creation workflows.
You’ll learn critical methods to improve your SOLIDWORKS skills. From user interface tweaks and keyboard shortcuts to leveraging AI, we’ll cover it all. Both seasoned and green SOLIDWORKS users will benefit from this tips and tricks session.
It is recommended that you bring a pad and paper to take notes on the topics most applicable to you. Our goal for you would be to find between three and five tips that you can apply to your workflow today and get started with some quick efficiency wins.
In this SOLIDWORKS webinar, you will learn to cut design time:
- Navigation shortcuts to remove unnecessary clicks and time searching.
- Lesser-known commands and workflows to increase your part modeling efficiency.
- Discover best practices for efficiently building and managing assemblies.
- Tools to quickly generate and annotate drawings accurately and efficiently.
