What you'll learn

Throughout these lessons, we will be creating a sheet metal part for an electrical enclosure confined and driven by a design envelope along with various tools including the edge and miter flanges, bolt holes, a vent, and various other features. We will cover the creation of a portion of an electrical enclosure to house equipment for assembly line processing machines. You will also learn how to apply basic properties for your sheet metal part, a base flange, edge flange, miter flange, the hole wizard, and the vent fastener feature as well as various options and methods. Ultimately, a sheet metal part model is created and ready to be assembled with other sheet parts, components, and fasteners to create an electrical enclosure. Software required: SOLIDWORKS 2012 and up.
