    • Ability to read dimensioned drawing
  • Skills tested
    • Design solid parts: Sketch 2D profiles, create parametric parts, create repetitive geometry, add dress-up features (fillets, drafts) to a part, apply material and analyze the geometry (mass, volume and center of gravity)
    • Design an advanced solid part: Sketch 2D profiles, create multiple bodies, use Boolean operations and create holes
    • Build assemblies: Design a part in context, establish engineering connections, design and simulate a mechanism, analyze interferences and resolve clashes, apply materials, calculate the weight of components and determine the mass and center of gravity of an assembly
    • Create Surfaces: Create the surfaces using wireframes and perform surface operations
    • Design Sheetmetal parts: Create a sheet metal part using sketches and add bends, stamps and holes. Use folded/ unfolded views and apply material
    • Create Drafting: Create the drafting of the part by generating views, dimensions and sections
    • Create Smart Mechanical Components: Convert the given part into a smart mechanical component and use it in the assembly by instantiating it
