EV Charging Plug | SolidWorks Surface Modeling · 模型 312861
Date created: 02/07/2025 , Saved Using SOLIDWORKS 2024 I'm going back to SolidWorks and learning proper surfacing techniques. I’ve tried Blender; it's a good tool, but the reality is most manufacturing still doesn’t use Blender. That means I would need to export to SolidWorks anyway, which adds friction. One reason I originally moved away from SolidWorks was because I thought it couldn't handle unusual shapes. At that time, the things I used were solid features like extrude. If you are familiar with creating not-so-usual products, it takes a lot of cutting and extruding just to match the product a client wants. But after digging deeper, I realized it's actually very capable, especially with surfacing. My next goal is to create conceptual or product-level models in SolidWorks using surfacing and share my experiences, especially where the software is strong or weak. I’ve tried surfacing before, but I didn’t use it seriously. So I’m starting from zero hours now and documenting everything moving forward. My goal is to learn surfacing well enough that I don’t need to jump between different software anymore, especially since importing and exporting between tools often creates its own set of problems. This particular model, the EV charging plug, took me 13 hours and 30 minutes to complete. Every minute was a lesson in both the strengths and limits of surfacing in SolidWorks.
