In this tutorial, I will show youhow to make threads in SolidWorkswhile creating ahexagonal bolt. By following this tutorial, you will also learn about the basic menus in SolidWorks, how to draw polygons, how to use the CHAMFER command, and finally, how to add cosmetic threads to your de...
Now that you have learned how to make threads in Solidworks for your spring, you may want to add flat ends for a ground spring. For an open spring, skip to step seven. Select the second sketch. Create a plane perpendicular to the centerline of the spring. This should be parallel with ...
This quick tutorial will demonstrate how to model NPT threads on SolidWorks. In this example we’ll be modeling a standard pipe, 1-1/2 NPT Pipe Size at 11-1/2 Threads per Inch. Even though we’ll be modeling a standard part in this example, this procedure may also be applied to cust...
it’s a feature in SOLIDWORKS used to create models that consist of members. It’s a fantastic way to be able to create cut lists directly from your solid model. With the Structure System being introduced a few years ago, creating these structures is easier than ever....
There is no cutter to cut a convex corner directly. This means the milling machine needs to go through a LOT of tiny paths to create the impression of a convex corner. I say “impression” because unless you smooth it in a second operation, the CNC mill will always make even a fine,...
It is also recommended to use standard threads; that way, readily available tooling can be used. When an entirely custom thread is required, use a detail view to define the thread form fully. Elements of a thread call out. 12. Use the appropriate type of linear tolerance. In ...

3D printing is an additive technology used to manufacture parts. It is ‘additive’ in that it doesn’t require a block of material or a mold to manufacture physical objects, it simply stacks and fuses layers of material. It’s typically fast, with low fixed setup costs, and can create ...
The product development process involves getting your product from concept to market. Although how you approach this process may differ depending on your industry, the same steps are used broadly almost everywhere for new invention development. Successfu
One of which is to be able to send a dummy block of a product to a supplier/customer without giving away any details except the outside dimensions. In another case, you could create a part on an existing surface mimicking the various depths and cut-outs etc. and then just subtract that...
