Book Description
This textbook offers an introduction to 3D computer modeling and
Pro/ENGINEER. The intent of this textbook is to help students
become comfortable working in 3D. Although there are numerous
step-by-step examples to illustrate modeling concepts and
techniques, this is not a push-button manual.
The textbook begins with 3D modeling basics including 3D
modeling methods and model definitions, coordinate systems, and
view types and specifications. It then proceeds with the creation
of 3D components, the documentation of those components for
production, and the combining of components into assemblies.
End-of-chapter exercises vary in difficulty from easy to
challenging. The exercises provide a chance to review basic
concepts as well as increase understanding and modeling skills by
applying those concepts and techniques to the creation of some
realistic models.
