We bought Solidworks a year ago, but have been too busy to learn it. This morning I needed to open a 3D Fanuc robot dwg to check to see if it's work envelope would do the job we need it to on a rush quote we are working on.
It should be simple right....Open the drawing and rotate the robot parts around on the screen to verify that this size will do the job. If it was a solid inautocad, iwould have been done in a few minutes.... Lets just say Solidworks is not very intuitive and leave it at that.
I have got to go, as I am going to quickly redraw this thing in autocad as some crude solids so that I can then SIMPLY use the SIMPLE rotate 3d comand to rotate the solids to verify reach.
I am sure Solidworks is a great thing once you get the hang of it, but it is VERY non-intuitive for a newbie!
