In this tutorial, We will learn solidworks sheetmetal basics. We will flatten sheetmetal in solidworks and we will be exporting our file to autocad for machining in .dxf format. Here, we will learn the following commands: 1) Miter Flange 2) Edge Flange 3) Hem 4) Sheetmetal Gusset 5) Sheetmetal Cutout 6) 3D Mirror 7) Appearance It is a good sheetmetal exercise for beginners and it will be a good practice for beginners. Kindly use play pause technique for practice. I have attached files in the description for practice. Feel free to ask your queries in comment section. I will try to answer each and every question. Keep practicing as practice makes a man perfect. #solidworkssheetmetalbasics #sheetmetalflattensolidworks #exportsolidworkstoautocad #CADable #solidworksmiterflange #solidworkssheetmetaltutorials For Files: https://grabcad.com/library/sheetmetal-exercise-3 Kindly Subscribe our Channel for more Videos and Projects in SOLIDWORKS, Keyshot, AutoCAD, Solid Edge, Blender etc. We also offer freelancing s

➤How to optimize a CAD drawing in AutoCAD? If you’ve been working on a file for some time, and you’ve noticed AutoCAD slowing down, then it may be worth doing a bit of a cleanup to help slim that drawing file down. ➤What is an optimized drawing and what are the benefits? An optimized drawing with a minimum amount of unnecessary data tends to perform faster, the drawing load time is significantly better and chances of drawing corruption also reduce to a great extent. ➤In this video I'll show you the most efficient ways of cleaning and optimizing your drawings in AutoCAD. ➤IT IS GOOD PRACTICE TO OPTIMIZE AND CLEAN YOUR DRAWING BEFORE IMPORTING IT INTO OTHER SOFTWARE LIKE REVIT, 3DS MAX ETC. ➤"Drawing Purge" Add-In download https://apps.autodesk.com/en/Publisher/PublisherHomepage?ID=200809200135043

How to Import GLTF Files in FUSION 360

You can use the workflow presented in the video that makes use of Blender as Fusion 360 does not natively support importing GLTF files. However, there are a few workarounds that you can use to import GLTF files into Fusion 360. One workaround is to use a third-party plugin. There are a few different plugins available that can be used to import GLTF files into Fusion 360. One popular plugin is the GLTF Importer for Fusion 360: https://apps.autodesk.com/FUSION/en/Detail/Index?id=935621094053886114&appLang=en&os=Win64.

Learn How to Export SOLIDWORKS File to AutoCAD DWG/DXF
Ibrahim Omer

Hi friends welcome back to CADable. Its been a while since I am making a tutorial. In this tutorial, we will be exporting a file from Solidworks to AutoCAD. Remember Solidworks part file format is .sldprt while AutoCAD has either .dwg or .dxf file formats. DWG is Autocad standard drawing file format while DXF is data exchange format and this file format is mostly accepted by many machining processes like different CAM software's, Laser cutting, EDM etc. First we will create a simple arbitrary blank in SOLIDWORKS, then we will save that file as DXF. After that a window will pop up like AutoCAD and we will save that DXF file. Lastly I have used that file from AutoCAD. Kindly use play pause technique for practice. Here, I am not attaching a practice file since it is a very easy tutorial, but if you are facing problems, you can ask, and I'll upload the file. Feel free to ask your queries in comment section. I will try to answer each and every question. Keep practicing as practice makes a man perfect.

3D printing is booming–big time. And since most 3D printers accept STL exports, engineers are using the export format more and more. I’ve experimented with 3D printing using different settings of the STL export format. In this Video, I’ll share my experiences with you. For the sake of accuracy, for these tests I used NX 11 and an Anycubic mega X 3D printer. Here is the video tutorial: https://youtu.be/h34M6tFaTpM Please dot forget to schow some support and to subscribe my YT-channel

For the case study of modifying and transferring this tutorial makes use of Blender. Blender is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software toolset used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3D-printed models, motion graphics, interactive 3D applications, virtual reality, and, formerly, video games.

Beginner
In this tutorial, we'll learn how to make spur gear animation in SOLIDWORKS and in Keyshot. Here we will make spur gears using SOLIDWORKS design library i.e. using tool box. In the 1st section of the tutorial, we will assemble and animate spur gears in SOLIWORKS. In the 2nd section of the tutorial, we will export our animation into Keyshot using Keyshot plug-in. It is a basic exercise for beginners and it will be a good practice for beginners. Here, we'll learn these commands and features: 1) Basic 2D commands 2) Assembly 3) Tool Box 3) Coincident Mate 4) Concentric Mate 5) Gear Mate 6) Motion Study 7) Keyshot Plug-in 8) Material 9) Rendering Kindly use play pause technique for practice. I have attached files in the description for practice. Feel free to ask your queries in comment section. I will try to answer each and every question. Keep practicing as practice makes a man perfect. #spurgears #assemby #cadable Spur Gear Files: https://grabcad.com/library/spur-gear...
