Solid Edge ST2 for Designers is a comprehensive textbook that introduces the users to direct modeling with precise control of dimension-driven design through precision sketching and selection handles using the Solid Edge ST2 software. The textbook covers all major environments of Solid Edge ST with a thorough explanation of all tools, options, and their applications to create real-world products. It includes the working of both the Traditional as well as the Synchronous environments.
About 60 mechanical engineering industry examples are used as tutorials and an additional 35 as exercises to ensure that the users can relate their knowledge and understand the design techniques used in the industry. After reading the textbook, the users will be able to create parts, assemblies, drawing views with bill of materials, and learn the editing techniques that are essential to make a successful design. Also, in this textbook, the author emphasizes on the solid modeling and editing techniques that will improve the productivity and efficiency of the users.
