AutoCAD Training Overview
This training guide enables students to create features that are specific to the sheetmetal modeling process. Students are provided with a process-based approach to creating sheetmetal models. Each step in the process is discussed in depth using lectures and several hands-on exercises. This training guide focuses on the Generative Sheet Metal Design workbench.
