SOLIDWORKS® MBD (Model Based Definition) is an integrated drawingless manufacturing solution for SOLIDWORKS 3D design software. With SOLIDWORKS MBD, you can communicate product and manufacturing information (PMI) directly in 3D, bypassing time-consuming 2D processes, and eliminating potential problems. Companies embracing model-based definition methodologies report savings in multiple areas, including reductions in manufacturing errors, decrease in scrap and rework costs, and lower procurement costs for purchased parts. With such an increased focus on using SOLIDWORKS MBD, at i GET IT we invested in creating a new self-paced training course to help people understand and use the features of MBD.

Our newly released SOLIDWORKS MBD and DimXpert course covers the basics of creating and communicating Product Manufacturing Information, or PMI, using SOLIDWORKS MBD and DimXpert tools. You’ll learn what SOLIDWORKS Model Based Definition is, how to attach dimensions and other annotations to a model, how to view and manage annotation views, specialized PMI techniques, how to create custom 3D PDF templates and publish them, and how view 3D PDFs and eDrawings once they’ve been created.

After completing this course, you will receive a Certificate of Completion from i GET IT and Tata Technologies. This certificate can be used to prove that you have completed training on using SOLIDWORKS MBD. The course content consists of video lessons, practice Try It exercises and in-course quizzes.
