About the Solidworks for Production Engineer course

SolidWorks, from Dassault Systèmes, is a widely used 3D CAD program for mechanical design. For production and manufacturing engineers it is more than a modelling tool: it is where parts are made production-ready, shop drawings are dimensioned and toleranced, sheet metal is flattened for laser cutting, weldment frames get their cut lists, and mould splits and manufacturability are checked before anything reaches the shop floor.

This 80-hour course starts from the basics, so you do not need earlier SolidWorks experience. You learn sketching with relations and design intent, part features, patterns and configurations, then assemblies with mates, Toolbox hardware, interference detection and motion basics. The production focus follows: manufacturing drawings with tolerances, GD&T feature control frames, surface finish and weld symbols and BOMs; sheet metal with bend allowance, K-factor and flat patterns; weldments; mold tools with draft analysis and core and cavity split; DFMXpress; SOLIDWORKS Costing; and data exchange in STEP, IGES, DXF and STL. A machine sub-assembly project with a full drawing set ties it together. Training is hands-on, in CADD centre classrooms or live online, with an online-verifiable CADD Training Centre certificate.

The course supports roles like production engineer, manufacturing engineer, sheet metal designer and CAD engineer in fabrication, automotive parts and machine building companies.

You will be able to

  • Model production-ready parts with correct design intent
  • Build assemblies and check interference, clearance and motion
  • Create shop-floor drawings with tolerances, GD&T symbols and BOMs
  • Design sheet metal parts and generate flat patterns
  • Create weldment frames with cut lists for fabrication
  • Use mold tools to check draft and split core and cavity
  • Check manufacturability and estimate part cost inside SolidWorks

Who it is for

  • Mechanical and production engineering students
  • Engineers working in manufacturing, fabrication and tooling
  • Diploma holders aiming for production planning or CAD roles
  • Machine shop and sheet metal professionals moving to 3D CAD

What you need

  • Basic computer skills and engineering drawing knowledge
  • Understanding of manufacturing processes helps
  • For live online classes: a Windows PC with 16 GB RAM and a dedicated graphics card

Solidworks for Production Engineer course — FAQ

How do production engineers use SolidWorks?

Production engineers use SolidWorks to prepare manufacturing-ready models, shop drawings with tolerances, sheet metal flat patterns, weldment cut lists and mold splits, and to check manufacturability and part cost before production starts.

What is covered in SolidWorks for Production Engineer?

Sketching, part modelling, assemblies, GD&T drawings, sheet metal, weldments, mold tools, DFMXpress, Costing and a final production project with a full drawing set.

What is the course duration for SolidWorks for Production Engineer?

This SolidWorks course is 80 hours long, giving enough time for practice on each manufacturing topic.

Can I study SolidWorks production engineering online?

Yes. Pick a classroom batch at a CADD centre or join live online SolidWorks for Production Engineer classes; online, you prepare the same production drawings and flat patterns on your PC with live trainer feedback.

Is the certificate for this SolidWorks course verifiable online?

A CADD Training Centre certificate is given after SolidWorks for Production Engineer. Each one carries a QR code and a unique number, letting a fabrication or tooling company verify it online.

Which jobs need SolidWorks manufacturing skills?

Production engineer, manufacturing engineer, sheet metal designer, tool design assistant and CAD engineer roles in fabrication, automotive parts and machine building companies. Placement support is provided.

Do I need to know SolidWorks basics before this course?

No. The course begins with sketching and part modelling, then moves into production topics, so beginners with engineering drawing knowledge can join.
