Settings
The units commonly set for the metric system
What are millimeters, grams, and seconds?
They include line, rectangle, circle, and arc
What are basic sketch tools?
This tool allows you to delete a face
What is delete face?
This view inserts a zig zag cut line to indicate the part is longer than shown
What is break view?
This allows you to apply motors to the parts in the assembly and analyze the results
What is motion study?
The 3 file types
What are part, assembly, and drawing?
These define sketch geometry in addition to dimensions
What are sketch relations?
This feature creates a 3-dimensional body perpendicular to the selected 2D geometry at a selected depth
What is boss extrude?
This view shows a select portion of the part at an increased scale factor
What is detail view?
This mate locks a part at an arbitrary point and orientation in 3D space
What is fixed?
This tab includes the measurement and mass properties tools
What is the evaluate tab?
This tool allows you to copy geometry over a centerline
What is the mirror tool?
A tool that removes the selected face and body, leaving a uniform thickness to the remaining faces
What is the shell tool?
This view enables you to see all parts of an assembly and is often numbered with balloons
What is exploded view?
This tool will find any overlaps between parts
What is interference detection?
These pre-made values can commonly be set for dimensions and then updated as needed
What are variables?
This tool is very helpful to outline arbitrary geometry (e.g. a picture)
What is spline?
This feature creates geometry connecting profiles on two parallel planes following a guide curve
What is a loft?
This refers to views created 90 degrees apart, typically front, right, and top
What is orthographic?
This mate sets the number and direction of rotations of one part relative to those another
What is gear mate?
The 3 file extensions
What are sldprt, sldasm, and slddrw?
This tool allows you to copy lines and surface edges already created into a new sketch
What is the convert entities tool?
This feature can be helpful to have a decal applied to a curved surface
What is wrap?
This view is a non-standard projected view selected from the part and indicated with directional arrows
What is auxiliary view?
Cam, Gear, Rack and pinion, screw, and universal joint etc. . .
What are mechanical mates?
