SolidWorks World 2013 just weeks away

Breakout Sessions

SolidWorks World 2013 is only a weeks away!  It’s shaping up to be a great convention!  The session schedule is filled with great topics.  These are a small sample of what is on the schedule as of January 1, 2013 (schedule is subject to change):

• Advanced Motion Simulation Techniques in SolidWorks by Shrikant Savant.  Learn about advanced simulation techniques using SolidWorks Motion, such as control design, event-based motion, exporting motion loads to SolidWorks Simulation, etc.
• Think Differently! — Multibody Techniques in SolidWorks 2013 by Alin Vargatu.  See how SolidWorks 2013 adds new and spectacular tools for creating and managing multibody parts. We can even call them “game changers.”  Once mastered, these multibody techniques will open up surprising possibilities for saving time and shortcuts.
  
• IAW ASME Y14.5 – Use It Only if You Know It by Rustin Webster and Jeremy Clark. Explore the right and wrong way of creating drawings (IAW) ASME Y14.5M. Attendees will learn fundamental drawing rules concerning view orientation and position, tolerancing, interpretation, dimensioning, accuracy, simplicity, and clarity.
• Automate Your Design with Equations by Don Van Zile III and Frank Ruepp.  Get a closer look at equations. SolidWorks 2013 has significant enhancements to equations, and we will learn how these enhanced capabilities can help you to speed up and automate your design process.
• Fifteen Years of SolidWorks Tips and Tricks by Phil Sluder.  Learn how to use SolidWorks 2013 in the real world in this fast-paced session of tips. These will not be found in the help file, they come from years of learning, teaching, and using the software daily in a small dynamic design environment.
• Power Surfacing by David Gill.  Demonstrate how to easily create and import organic, free form surfaces in SolidWorks. Demonstrate new Sub-Division surface modeling plugin for SolidWorks.

As a drafter, mechanical designer and CAD engineer, I've been in the mechanical design field since 1991. For the first 8 years of my career, I was an AutoCAD professional. I utilized AutoLISP and many other AutoCAD customization features to streamline drafting activities for 6+ drafters and designers. I authored several custom functions, one of which was published in the March 1997 issue of Cadalyst Magazine. Since 1998, I've been used SolidWorks non-stop. I've worked to utilize the SolidWorks' user environment to simplify drafting and design activities for 20+ engineers. I've created this website to provide current information about SolidWorks from a variety of contributors. More recently, I am now employed by Dassault Systemes as SOLIDWORKS Sr. Product Definition Manager to improve drawing, annotation and MBD related areas. View all posts by fcsuper
