Solid Edge ST5 for Designers introduces the reader to Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology. Solid Edge is one of the world's leading parametric solid modeling packages. With Synchronous Technology, Solid Edge redefines the rules for 3D modeling. It combines the speed and flexibility of modeling with precise control of dimension-driven design, thereby generating tremendous productivity gains over traditional methods. In this release of Solid Edge, the synchronous modeling and the traditional modeling environments are integrated into a single environment. In this textbook, the author emphasizes on the solid modeling and editing techniques that enhance the productivity and efficiency of the user. This textbook consists of 15 chapters structured in a pedagogical sequence, covering the Part, Assembly, Drafting and Sheet Metal environments of Solid Edge ST5. Both Synchronous and Ordered environments are discussed throughout this book. Every chapter begins with a tools section that provides a brief information of the Solid Edge tools. Each chapter provides you with tutorials that are created using these commands. This approach allows the user to use this textbook initially as a learning tool and then as a reference material. Following are the additional features of this book: · Detailed explanation of Solid Edge ST5 tools · More than 50 real-world mechanical engineering designs as tutorials, 45 as exercises, and projects with step-by-step explanation · The first page of every chapter summarizes the topics that are covered in the chapter. · Emphasis on Why and How with explanation · Tips and Notes throughout the textbook · 736 pages with heavily illustrated text · Self-Evaluation Tests, Review Questions, and Exercises at the end of each chapter
