Stairs - Creating the Frame Sketch - Part 23:02
Stairs - Creating the Frame - Part 34:29
Handle Points5:21
Frame Options3:12
Frame Options - Part 24:01
Explore how to modify frame components in Solid Edge to create multiple pieces, enable coping on outer faces, and manage tangential segment for accurate, closed cross section.
Cut Length4:14
Cut Length - Part 24:45
Rotate the sketch 180 degrees to correct the part orientation, then update the model and draft after changing template material from steel to aluminium 1060, refreshing the parts list.
Multiple Vertex Options4:32
Surface Trim5:49
Perform surface trim in Solid Edge by sketching a 200x400 profile, placing offsets, curves, and a circle, then extruding and assembling a rectangular tubing 40x20 frame with end conditions.
Creating Custom Frame Pieces5:49
Adding Line Edges to the 3D Model4:05
Hexagon5:01
Hexagon at an Angle4:24
Create angled hexagon centered on the xy plane in a structural frame using polygon by center, extrude with a 15-degree draft, and apply surfacing and round tubing in Solid Edge.
Hexagon at an Angle - Part 23:56
Apply frame design steps in Solid Edge, center cross sections by defining and lifting handle points, and trim to faces with extend trim for accurate alignment with round tubing 25x2.
Connecting Frame Pieces at an Angle3:48
Create a sketch and extrude the frame pieces, using the frame environment and square tubing 20x20. Adjust angles with coping, undo mistakes, and align gaps to finalize the assembly.
Connecting Frame Pieces at an Angle - Part 24:07
Step Ladder Stairs5:51
Step Ladder Stairs - Adding the Feet - Part 24:20
Step Ladder Stairs - Creating the Steps3:36
Step Ladder Stairs - Adjusting the Steps4:17
Step Ladder Stairs - Weldments3:46
Apply weldment features in Solid Edge to assemble step ladder welds, adjust bead density, perform fillet welds between base and target faces, and manage mass properties and saveable weld settings.
Weldments - Part 2 - Step Ladder Stairs3:43
Weldments - Draft - Part 2 - Step Ladder Stairs3:00
Stitch Weld3:31
Build a stitch weld assembly in Solid Edge 3D CAD by sketching a 400x200 base, adding an angle brace, and using frame environment with square tubing.
Stitch Weld - Part 25:29
Demonstrates converting a square tubing frame to a weldment with density 1750, then placing stitch welds after fillet welding, adjusting gap and bead lengths to equalize welds on edges.
Stitch Weld - Part 33:43
Explore stitch weld options in solid edge, compare fillet weld with offset and gap/bead length controls, and save stitch 10 and label weld settings for documenting welds in assembly tree.
Welds and Placing on the Detail Sheet4:31
Label Welds - View Options4:08
Identify label welds in Solid Edge by editing weld definitions, selecting the weld symbol and size, saving views, and updating the model and bill of materials.
Frame Base Design - Using the Right Tools4:33
Frame Base Design - Part 24:35
Frame Base Design - Drawing Sheet -Options - Part 33:56
Face Relate - Edit the 3D Model instead of the Edit Points.3:52
Face Relate - Part 24:15
Frame Design Around an Assembly5:19
Design a structural frame around an assembly in Solid Edge 3D CAD by creating a part in place, extruding sketches, and applying frame commands to add tubing and supports.
Frame Design Around an Assembly - Part 26:26
Frame Design - Building around Mechanical Parts3:44
Frame Design - Building around Mechanical Parts - Part 25:24

Requirements

Siemens Solid Edge 2019 or later. Take my class "3D CAD Fundamentals with Siemens Solid Edge"

Description

Learn how to create structural frames and weldments that are commonly required for process equipment and mechanical machinery. This class guides you through the steps of creating a frame and weldments. The Siemens Solid Edge software lets you do much of the work through simple menu picks and dialog boxes along with providing full support for creating and drawings of 3D frames.
