Overview

Prerequisite

Knowledge of SOLIDWORKS and the basics of the MotionManager is required. If you are not familiar with the basics of the MotionManager, the class manager will send you a self- paced lesson that should be completed before class begins. Knowledge of basic mechanical engineering concepts is recommended.
