The 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. The book starts with sketching and ends at advanced topics like Mold Design, Sheetmetal, Weldment, and SolidWorks MBD. The book covers almost all the information required by a learner to master the SolidWorks. There are about 60 topics newly added in this book which were not in the previous edition. In this edition of book, we have included many new features of SolidWorks like 3D printing, SolidWorks MBD (Model Based Definition), Magnetic Mates, Asset Builder, 3D PDFs, and so on. We have tried to reduce the gap between university use of SolidWorks and industrial use of SolidWorks. In this book, we have tried to give real-world examples with real challenges in designing. The book follows a step by step methodology. 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 SolidWorks 2017 Black Book is the forth edition of our series on SolidWorks.
