About the Solidworks for Drawing tools course

A 3D model is only half the job: the shop floor still works from 2D manufacturing drawings. SOLIDWORKS drawing tools create these drawings directly from parts and assemblies, so views, dimensions and the bill of materials stay linked to the model and update when the design changes.

This 20-hour add-on course teaches you to produce clear, standard-compliant drawings in SolidWorks. You set up drawing templates and sheet formats, then place standard, projected, section, detail, auxiliary, broken-out and crop views. You add model items and smart dimensions, tolerances, surface finish and weld symbols, datums and geometric tolerances (GD&T), and create BOMs, balloons, hole tables and revision tables. You also learn assembly drawings, exploded views, and export to PDF and DWG. Everything is practised hands-on on the software with real part and assembly drawings, in the classroom at a CADD centre or in live online classes.

Drawing skills are essential for design engineers, CAD draughtsmen and checkers. The course pairs well with the GD&T course and other SolidWorks modules.

You will be able to

  • Create custom drawing templates, sheet formats and title blocks
  • Place standard, projected, section, detail, auxiliary and broken-out views
  • Dimension drawings using model items, smart, ordinate and baseline dimensions
  • Add tolerances, surface finish, weld symbols, datums and GD&T frames
  • Insert BOMs, balloons, hole tables and revision tables
  • Produce assembly drawings with exploded views and export to PDF and DWG

Who it is for

  • SolidWorks users who need to produce manufacturing drawings
  • Mechanical engineering students and diploma holders
  • CAD draughtsmen and drawing checkers
  • Design engineers who release drawings to production

What you need

  • Working knowledge of SolidWorks parts and assemblies
  • Understanding of orthographic projection and basic drawing standards
  • For live online classes: a Windows PC with at least 16 GB RAM

Solidworks for Drawing tools course — FAQ

What are SolidWorks drawing tools?

They are the SolidWorks features used to make 2D drawings from 3D parts and assemblies: views, sections, dimensions, GD&T, tables, BOMs and balloons, all linked to the 3D model.

Who can join the SolidWorks drawing tools course?

SolidWorks users from mechanical backgrounds can join, including students, draughtsmen and design engineers. You should know how to model parts and assemblies in SolidWorks.

How long is the SolidWorks drawing tools course?

This is a 20-hour add-on module focused on drawing templates, views, dimensions, GD&T, tables, assembly drawings and export.

Can I learn SolidWorks drawings online?

Yes. Pick a classroom batch at a CADD centre or join live online SolidWorks Drawing Tools classes; online, you prepare real drawings on your PC while the trainer reviews them.

Do I get a certificate after the drawing tools course?

Yes. Your SolidWorks Drawing Tools certificate comes from CADD Training Centre and carries a QR code, so an engineering company can confirm it online in a few seconds.

Why are drawing skills important for design jobs?

Manufacturing, inspection and vendors still work from 2D drawings. Design engineers, CAD draughtsmen and checkers who make clear, correctly toleranced drawings are valued in every engineering company.

Can SolidWorks drawings be opened in AutoCAD?

Yes. SolidWorks can save drawings as DWG or DXF, which open in AutoCAD and other CAD programs, and as PDF for sharing with people who do not have CAD software.
