Product Description

This book is written to assist designers, engineers, and professionals to comprehend and utilize the concepts and functionality contained in the Pro/SHEETMETAL module of Pro/ENGINEER. The book contains information for users to translate design ideas from initial conceptual sketches to manufacturing reality.

The targeted audience for the book is the novice and intermediate Pro/ENGINEER user. Commands are presented in a step by step approach. The text includes additional information on parts, assemblies and drawings used to create sheetmetal components and assemblies.

In a project based approach the learning process is explored through a series of design projects and objectives, each with a desired outcome. The project based approach simulates the work environment, example: 1.) Prototype stage, 2.) Part and assembly, 3.) Production drawing, 4.) Bill of Materials, 5.) Bend Order Tables and 6.) Design for manufacturing, to name a few. In each project, you build on previous learned skills and concepts. Projects in this book contain repetitive information. This is intentional. This is not a Pro/SHEETMETAL reference book.

This review is from: Applications in Sheet Metal : Using Pro/SHEETMETAL and Pro/ENGINEER (Release 2000i-2) (Paperback)

The book does an execellent job of explaining and showing how to use a difficult Pro/E module. The documentation from PTC is weak!! I highly recommend this book to all level users. It is hard to fine a good book. This is a good book.

5.0 out of 5 stars best of proengineer sheetmetal, December 15, 2002

By A Customer

You will have the best book that you can buy on the market. It will give you not only tutorial of commands of sheetmetal module but also some others design methods required to be a good designer.
