This edition of Mechanical Desktop 4.0: Applying Designer and Assembly Modules has been completely reorganized to provide you with a more intuitive, yet equally comprehensive, introduction to Mechanical Desktop features and functions than ever before! Featuring numerous step-by-step exercises based on real parts and assemblies - plus more than 500 images to show you exactly what your screen should look like - this how-to book will enable even first-time Mechanical Desktop users to quickly achieve proficiency.More than a cookbook-style tutorial, Mechanical Desktop 4.0 also features exercises from a variety of disciplines for you to complete on your own as you master the ins and outs of this powerful, parametric design tool. And, because they are many ways to complete a model using Mechanical Desktop, each exercise has been carefully crafted to encourage experimentation as you learn. Since new 4.0 commands, and commands that have changed from release 3.X and 2.X, are highlighted upfront in the table of contents, Mechanical Desktop 4.0 also serves as a valuable quick-start and reference manual for even the most experienced user. It's a "must" for every mechanical engineer's personal or professional reference library!
