Snowmobile Frame - From 3DS Max to SolidWorks Tutorial

grabcad

This tutorial demonstrates the creation of a parametric CAD model from a 3DS Max STL file, using a snowmobile frame as an example. It is divided into four parts, starting with aligning the STL file in Geomagic Design X and addressing mesh issues in part one. In part two, learn how to fix low poly and optimize mesh size while preserving quality. The third part focuses on refining extracted tube surfaces using SolidWorks, including the use of 3D sketches and projections from 2D sketches. Lastly, part four covers full parametric modeling in SolidWorks with the "Weldment Tool." Three videos are provided for each step of the process. Enjoy learning CAD design through this tutorial!
