Course Objectives:

The Drafting Essentials course is designed to teach students the proper use of the NX drafting tools.

• You will configure all drafting preferences using a preset standards file, create multi-sheet drawings with base and derived views, place associated dimensions and annotations on the drawing, and customize the drawing with view dependent geome-try and style changes.
• You will also explore techniques for working with assemblies and Product and Manufacturing Information (PMI). Productivity is a key in every aspect of the NX software implementation. Product model detailing skills further the goal of overall productivity, as part of the engineering and product development process.

Outcome:

Students who complete the Drafting Essentials course will be prepared to return to their product development duties with the additional skills that speed and automate the detailing process in NX.
