Essentials (Day One) - Students will learn basic functionality and techniques available using COSMOSMotion for motion analysis. This course will allow students to create motion-based analysis. Course enables students to create motion-based analysis using existing SolidWorks assembly models. Results of these analyses can then be used to optimize designs and reduce the number of actual prototypes.
Advanced (Day Two) - An addendum to Motion Essentials, course will raise your kinematic analysis skills to next level. The course provides an in – depth session on the basics of building, simulating and refining a mechanical design system, from suspension steering system and drive shafts to CAMS, Gears and Actuators.
Prerequisites
To ensure a consistent learning experience for all students, we have established the following prerequisites for the training course.
• Some experience modeling with SolidWorks
Course Materials
The COSMOSMotion training guide will be supplied at the beginning of class and is yours to keep.
