*Special* SolidWorks Motion Simulation (2 day)

Designed for users who would like to become productive quickly in using SolidWorks Motion. This 2 day course will teach you how to use the SolidWorks Motion simulation package to study the kinematics and dynamic behavior of your SolidWorks assembly models.

Prerequisites: Knowledge of SolidWorks and the basics of the MotionManager is required. If you are not familiar with the basics of the MotionManager, the class manager will send you a self-paced lesson that should be completed before class begins. Knowledge of basic mechanical engineering concepts is recommended.

This course has been designed for new SolidWorks Motion users who would like to perform motion analysis on their designs. The course provides an in-depth session on the basics of building, simulating and refining a mechanical design system.
