Solid Edge 2026 with Videos for Designers, 23rd Edition

Solid Edge 2026 with Videos for Designers textbook introduces the readers to Solid Edge 2026, one of the world's leading parametric solid modeling packages. Consisting of 15 chapters, the book covers the Part, Assembly, Drafting, and Sheet Metal environments of Solid Edge 2026. Both synchronous and ordered environments are discussed throughout this book. Also, 3D sketching is discussed in both synchronous and ordered environments. 3D sketching combines the speed and flexibility of modeling with precise control on dimension driven designs, thereby providing tremendous productivity gains over traditional methods. Special emphasis has been laid on the introduction of concepts, which have been explained using text, along with graphical examples. The examples and tutorials used in this book ensure that the users can relate the information provided in this textbook with the practical industry designs. Salient Features of the Book: Comprehensive coverage of Solid Edge 2026 concepts and techniques. Detailed explanation of all commands and tools. Tutorial approach to explain concepts. Hundreds of illustrations for easy understanding of concepts. Step-by-step instructions to guide the users through the learning process. Real world mechanical engineering designs as tutorials, exercises, and projects. Self-Evaluation Tests and Review Questions for tests.
