Learn how to model a centrifugal pump casing in SOLIDWORKS from scratch in this step-by-step mechanical design tutorial.
In this video, we build the pump casing using a combination of SOLIDWORKS sketches, extrusions, revolved features, patterns, fillets, shelling, and other advanced modeling techniques to create a realistic industrial component.
This tutorial is useful for mechanical engineering students, CAD designers, SOLIDWORKS beginners, and professionals looking to improve their part-modeling skills through a real-world engineering project.
