Computer aided manufacture (CAM)

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an approach to the entire building life cycle. Autodesk(R) Revit(R) for Architecture, MEP, and Structure is a powerful BIM program that supports the ability to coordinate, update, and share design data with team members throughout the design construction and management phases of a building's life. A key component in managing the BIM process is to establish a company foundation for different types of projects by creating standard templates and custom family elements. Having this in place makes the process of any new project flow smoothly and efficiently. The objective of the Autodesk(R) Revit(R) 2018 BIM Management: Template and Family Creation learning guide is to enable users who have worked with the software to expand their knowledge in setting up office standards with templates that include annotation styles, preset views, sheets, and schedules, as well as creating custom system, in-place, and component families. This learning guide contains practices that are specific to each discipline. Topics Covered Create custom templates with annotation styles, title blocks, and custom element types. Create schedules, including material takeoff schedules with formula. Create custom wall, roof, and floor types as well as MEP system families. Set up a component family file with a parametric framework. Create family geometry. Create family types. Modify the visibility of components and incorporate additional family items such as controls, MEP connectors, and nested components. Create specific families, including in-place families, profiles, annotations, and parameters. This learning guide also contains discipline-specific practices for families, including: doors, windows, railings, pipe fittings, light fixtures, gusset plates, and built-up columns. Prerequisites Students should be comfortable with the fundamentals of the Autodesk Revit software, as found in the Autodesk Revit 2018 Architecture Fundamentals, Autodesk Revit 2018 Structure Fundamentals, or Autodesk Revit 2018 MEP Fundamentals learning guides. Knowledge of basic techniques is assumed, such as creating standard element, copying and moving elements, and creating and working with views, etc. Information on Collaboration Tools, Conceptual Design, and Site and Structural Design are covered in additional learning guides.

Designed to provide an insight into the Mechanical Design concept. Key FeaturesEach command is explained in a simple and understandable manner Step-by-step explanation Practical knowledge rather than theoretical knowledge Covers all the modules of SolidsWorks 2019 DescriptionThe book promises to make you understand and practice the SolidWorks framework. The aim of this book is to take you on a journey to all the phases of SolidWorks. SolidWorks is an innovative, next-generation industry software that allows you to solve and understand the designing and mechanical problems. SolidWorks uses a technical implementation approach for sketching, surfacing, and sheet metal drafting in an incremental and easy way. The main objective of this book is to make the reader understand the concepts of design based on practical knowledge rather than theoretical knowledge.What Will You Learn SolidWorks and its GUI Sketches (Line, Rectangle, Slot, Circle, ARC, Polygon, and Spline) Extrude, Revolved, Swept, Loft, Boundary, Filt, and Chamfer) Surface (Extruded, Revolved, Swept, Lofted, Boundary, Filled, and Planner) Sheet metal (Base flange/tab, Edge flange, Miter flange, and Hem) Weldments (Structural member, Trim/Extend, End cap, and Gusset) Curves Mold design Drafting Assembly Who This Book Is For Mechanical engineers and designers, automobile engineers, product designers, heavy vehicle designers.Table of Contents Introduction and Overview Sketch Features Surface Sheet Metal Weldments Curves Mold Design Assembly Drafting About the Author Linkan Sagar has done B.tech from UPTU, Lucknow.

The Creo Parametric 9.0 Black Book is the New, updated 7th edition! of our series on Creo Parametric. With lots of additions and thorough review, we present a book to help professionals as well as learners in creating some of the most complex solid models. The book follows a step by step methodology. In this book, we have tried to give real-world examples with real challenges in designing. We have tried to reduce the gap between university use of Creo Parametric and industrial use of Creo Parametric. In this edition of book, we have included new enhancements of Creo Parametric 9.0 interface. We have included an introductory chapter on Live Simulation in this edition. The book covers almost all the information required by a learner to master Creo Parametric. The book starts with sketching and ends at advanced topics like Sheetmetal, Surface Design, 3D Printing, MBD, Sheet metal NC manufacturing, and Live Simulation. Some of the salient features of this book are :In-Depth explanation of conceptsEvery new topic of this book starts with the explanation of the basic concepts. In this way, the user becomes capable of relating the things with real world.Topics CoveredEvery chapter starts with a list of topics being covered in that chapter. In this way, the users can easy find the topic of their interest easily.Instruction through illustrationThe instructions to perform any action are provided by maximum number of illustrations so that the user can perform the actions discussed in the book easily and effectively. There are about 1530 small and large illustrations that make the learning process effective.Tutorial point of viewAt the end of concept's explanation, the tutorials make the understanding of users firm and long lasting. Almost each chapter of the book has tutorials that are real world projects. Most of the tools in this book are discussed in the form of tutorials.ProjectProjects and exercises are provided to students for practicing.For FacultyIf you are a faculty member, then you can ask for video tutorials on any of the topic, exercise, tutorial, or concept. As faculty, you can register on our website to get electronic desk copies of our latest books, self-assessment, and solution of practical.
