In this Advanced SolidWorks training course, trainer Matt Lombard takes you beyond the basic techniques and tools in SolidWorks 2013 and shows you how to take your SolidWorks skills to the next level. This tutorial is designed for users that already have a basic understanding of SolidWorks, or have already taken the Learning SolidWorks 2013 course from Infinite Skills.

Matt starts right into this advanced training tutorial with a look at multi-body modeling. Next, the training continues on with an introduction to surfacing and once you have the basics down pat, you continue with surfacing complex shapes. Some of the other topics that Matt covers in this tutorial video include; working with solids and surfaces, master model techniques, using plate cams, gear mates, universal joint mates and other advanced mates. You will also learn about using assembly tools, file management and using top down design.

Once you have completed this advanced SolidWorks 2013 computer based video training course, you will have an in-depth understanding of SolidWorks, and how to use this software to create amazing 3D mechanical models. You will have practical experience in applying these techniques to real live 3D models within SolidWorks through the working files included from the author.
