The basic training leads beginners in the design using Pro/ENGINEER. Users start with sketching to model simple solid parts, then continue with creation of drawings and finish with modeling of simple assemblies.
Content:
- Pro/ENGINEER fundamentals
- Pick & place features (chamfers, rounds, holes)
- Sketcher mode (sketching, Intent Manager, dimensioning, modifications, constraints)
- Basic features defined by a section (protrusion, cut) and their basic forms
- Datums = helpful geometric features (datum plane, datum axis)
- Simple modifications (delete, redefine, reorder, mirror)
- Pro/ENGINEER file management - DBMS functions (save, save as, rename, erase, delete)
- Basic creation of detailed drawings (format selection, views, detailing)
- Advanced sketcher techniques
- Further solid feature forms (sweeps and blends)
- Feature management (insert, pattern, suppress, resume)
- Parent/Child relationships between features
- Layers and their usage
- Springs with constant pitch (helical sweeps)
- Cosmetic features (sketched, threads)
- Creation of simple assemblies, placement constraints, exploded views
Prerequisites:
- Experience in mechanical design is recommended
