Register WMLSWUG meeting - May 11th, 2023 5:00-5:45pm - Dinner and Networking 5:45-6:00pm - Announcements 6:00-7:15pm - Session 1 Sheet Metal: Design 101 (Part 1) Instructor: Bryan Devan (Fogg Filler Co) This two part basic level session covers the overall design considerations related to sheet metal, including practical limitations, design guidelines, and design for manufacturing. Picks and clicks in SOLIDWORKS as well as behind the scenes looks at how sheet metal is manufactured will help educate the attendees on this powerful manufacturing method. It's a Bird... It's a Plane... It's 3DEXPERIENCE Instructor: Matt Fontana (SWYFT Solutions) From a distance, it can be hard to determine what 3DEXPERIENCE really is, and even if you do have an idea of what the platform is, it can be easy to get lost at first. This session will walk through an overview of what the 3DEXPERIENCE platform is, the general layout and navigation when getting started, and how it connects to the tools you know and love, like SOLIDWORKS! The power of the platform only continues to grow, so this session will also make sure to cover some examples of its use cases and how it can benefit you! Non-traditional Uses Of SOLIDWORKS Weldments Instructor: Andrew Schutte (Smooth Logics) This intermediate level session covers the non-traditional uses of the SOLIDWORKS weldment tools. From home remodel projects to wood product design come learn how the weldment tool is one of the most powerful feature sets in SOLIDWORKS. Surfacing: Fixing and Using Imported Geometry (Part 1) Instructor: Shawn Wolters (AroMech) This two part intermediate level session will help users navigate the challenges of importing and using surface geometry. Many companies must deal with using geometry they didn't create as a reference, purchased item, or for machine design purposes. This course will focus on how to best clean up and use this imported surface geometry quickly and efficiently. Configurations In Machine Design Instructor: Darin Grosser (GoEngineer) Configurations, love them or hate them are one of the most powerful features in SOLIDWORKS. Good use of them is the key to their success. This intermediate level session will cover the best practices and challenges associated with configurations in machine design. Building an Effective PDM Workflow Instructor: Chris Miller (Hawkridge Systems) This advanced level session will cover the considerations and capabilities of building an affective and efficient PDM workflow. The workflow is the basis of how users interact with PDM and is an excellent tool for team and department processes. 7:15-7:45pm - Dessert and Networking 7:45-8:30pm - Session 2 SOLIDWORKS Customizations Everyone Should Know Instructor: Chris Miller (Hawkridge Systems) SOLIDWORKS has many ways it can be customized, from keyboard shortcuts, to mouse gestures, there infinite ways to set it up to work for you. This session will cover the different customization options available to you in this dive under the hood of SOLIDWORKS. Sheet Metal: Manufacturing 101 (Part 2) Instructor: Bryan Devan (Fogg Filler Co) This two part basic level session covers the overall design considerations related to sheet metal, including practical limitations, design guidelines, and design for manufacturing. Picks and clicks in SOLIDWORKS as well as behind the scenes looks at how sheet metal is manufactured will help educate the attendees on this powerful manufacturing method.

Many companies must deal with using geometry they didn't create as a reference, purchased item, or for machine design purposes. This course will focus on how to best clean up and use this imported surface geometry quickly and efficiently. Assembly Techniques & SOLIDWORKS Performance Impacts Instructor: Ryan Cole (GoEngineer) How users assemble, mate, and construct their assemblies can have drastic consequences on the performance of that model later, this session will take users through the best practices for best performance.
