This text provides readers, having no previous CAD experience, with an accessible guide to SOLIDWORKS 2017, with easy to understand, step-by-step tutorials. A simple robot design is used as a project throughout the book. Readers learn to model parts, create assemblies, run simulations and create animations of their robot designs. The text covers parametric modeling fundamentals through use of geometric constraints and relationships, and 3D printing is introduced in the last chapter.
