Chapter 15: Advanced SOLIDWORKS Assemblies Competencies
Working with assemblies is more than just putting parts together and linking them with mates. In this chapter, you will learn about additional assemblies' competencies that can help us build more technically feasible products. First, we will learn about the Interference Detection and Collision Detection tools, through which we can identify when parts are interfering or colliding with each other. Then, we will cover assembly features that are applied in the assembly file rather than the part file. Finally, we will learn about configurations and design tables within the assembly's context. These will enable us to generate and manage multiple variations of an assembly within one file.
The following topics will be covered in this chapter:
- Understanding and utilizing the Interference Detection and Collision Detection tools
- Understanding and applying assembly features
- Understanding and utilizing configurations...
