This SOLIDWORKS refresher demonstrates proper design intent and how it is crucial for today's engineers. We'll walk through editing and repairing a model and you'll learn how to use configurations, display states & appearances, and the impact SOLIDWORKS Visualize can make when portraying your model.

In the second half, we talk about four Design for Manufacturing topics:
✔ Minimize the number of parts it takes to make your product and reducing the number of fasteners that go into your assembly.
✔ Make parts reusable by taking advantage of the design library features in the task manager.
✔ Design intent making parts with symmetry and parts that align with other parts.
✔ Topdown design and taking advantage of the design style can simplify assembly instruction and the assembly process.
