Learn how to use Solidworks 3D CAD to create screw threads that can actually be 3D printed and used in real life!


Use Solidworks 3D CAD to create working screw threads for 3D printing! 3D Printing is a revolutionary manufacturing technology that allows people to turn their 3D CAD models into real physical items. Now it's actually possible to 3D print screw threads that really work and screw together! Add an entirely new dimension to your models today.

Why this course is different There are many 3D Printing and Modelling courses online, but none quite like this one:

We focus just on modelling screw threads, allowing you to create parts that actually screw together.
Taught by a Solidworks professional! The instructor has been using Solidworks since 2006 and has even taken a range of official Solidworks-certified training courses. The instructor currently works as a Product Design Engineer and uses Solidworks every day to design all sorts of things for real clients - no academic-only experience here!
All experiences welcome. This course does assume a basic knowledge of Solidworks but complete beginners can also follow along with the video, to learn on-the-go.
Understand the techniques for varied use. Instead of just copying the instructor this course encourages students to learn techniques that can then be used to create parts specific to your needs!

You will learn

The course covers an entire range of thread modelling details, including:

Introduction - How threads are used and how to use the course
Starting a Male Thread - Modelling a shaft - the first stage in creating a Male Thread
Adding the Threads - How to use Helixes and Sweeps to create Threads
Basic Finishing Touches - Ending Threads and other small details to improve your Threads
Female Threads - Using a Swept Cut to create a Nut, or any Female Thread
Assemblies, Tolerances and Left/Right-hand Threads - Checking that the Parts fit together and work correctly by adding them to an Assembly. Tolerances for 3D Printing and Left and Right-hand Threads
Thread Profiles and Different Sizes - Using Thread Tables to create threads of any size
Advanced Finishing Touches - To really finish off your Threads
Common Issues - Problems that can occur with Threads, and how how to avoid them
Conclusion and Exporting for Printing - A recap of the course, and how to actually print your parts
The course is taught using Solidworks 2015 but the models and resources used will work with any version newer than that - all the way up to Solidworks 2018.

The techniques used are also common to many different CAD programs - so you can learn on Solidworks then easily transfer these skills if needed.

So sign up today, and take your prints up to the next level!

Who this course is for:
Anyone who would like to learn how to make screw threads using Solidworks. These can then be 3D printed or produced using other methods, or just used virtually.
You may be a product designer wishing to expand your skills, a hobbyist looking to start 3D printing or an engineering enthusiast.
You may already know basic CAD and be looking to expand your skills, or you may be quite new to Solidworks and wanting to jump right in!
