Tiivistelmä
Sumitomo SHI FW Energia Oy began using SolidWorks 3D modeling software for detail modeling in 2017.
The aim of this thesis was to continue the commissioning of the software, as there were multiple tasks related to the commissioning that had yet to be completed. These tasks included defining the contents of template files used by SolidWorks for parts, assemblies and drawings. Additionally, the material library materials had to be modified in order to add material specific strength reduction factors for higher temperatures.
A general guide for modeling also had to be created in order to unify modeling practices across the company. The guide covers model naming, folder structure, attribute specification, general good modeling practices, model simplification, model positioning and coordinate system for PDMS export.
As a result of the work done in this thesis, a set of new SolidWorks template files with the desired attributes for manufacturing and filling the bill of materials were created for the company. The tests done with the SolidWorks material library were useful for determining the next steps for improvement of the library itself.
The modeling guide created as a part of this thesis was completed for review, after which the guide will be published for distribution within the company.
