Solid Edge Assembly Design Syllabus General Information

Description Students in Assembly Design will learn a different workflow that maintains a focus on the assembly. While exploring assembly intent, students will experience how designing within the context of assembly leads to a more efficient design by allowing designers to create and assemble components in the same environment. Along with large assembly management techniques, attendees will also be exposed to display configurations for exploded and cut-away views, interference checking, and other design verification tools.

Expectations and Goals To understand how to create a 2D parametrically constrained sketch

To create a 3D model using sketch driven features

Create a 3D model using Synchronous driven features

Combine individual parts into assemblies and build a BOM

Create a 2D draft file driven from part and assembly files

Intended Audience Our Solid Edge Assembly Design course is designed to be taken after the Solid Edge Fundamentals course or for Solid Edge users who would like to learn more about Solid Edge Assemblies.

Course Schedule

• Assembly Methods and Relationships o Interface, building methods / theory (bottom-up / top-down), applying relationships Rapid part

placement using Flashfit, Capture Fit and reference planes, Coordinate Systems

• Editing/changing Assemblies o Editing components and relationships, controlling updates, move and replace component parts,

relationship management

• Designing Parts in the Assemblyo Bottom-up / top-down design, both methods combined, creating Inter-Part Associativity, Links and

using the Manager

• Assembly Featureso Adding or removing material on parts from the assembly: impact and non-impact to the parts, new

patterns

Course Outline

Expertise; our certified trainers are all industry experts working on real-world challenges & projects

Knowledge; as specialized experts with Siemens PLM Software Solid Edge™, we possess this expertise to help you gain maximum knowledge and retention

Flexibility; we can modify content, timing, and location to meet your specific needs, industry challenges, and compliance requirements

The CAM Logic Training Difference

• Assembly Systemso "Capture" assembly intent with relationships in multiple parts for ease group-component placement with

libraries; Use ZONES for large assembly management

• Adjustable Assemblieso Use multiple instances of identical sub-assemblies - with different part positions - within the same

assembly life

• Family of Assemblies (FOA)o Creating assembly families: different versions of the same assembly, using compnenet and/or position

changes. Component reordering and level changes within assemblies, restructure assemblies• Display Tools

o Activate/inactivate, show/hide/search, configurations, named views, shortcut keys, color manager, part colors

• Explode and Cutawayo Explode environment / interface, display configurations, CUTAWAY views, clipping plans, saving files as

images

• Assembly Managemento Large assembly files, managing many levels of sub-assemblies and components

• Design Verificationo Physical properties, IntelliMotion (interference checking and motion simualtion), sensors, inspection tools
