Re-Use Your CAD: The Model-Based Handbook – 2nd Edition
This latest edition describes why MBD is important to your organization. The discussions around tools, processes, standards, and most importantly, the people who use MBD are updated to match current industry practice.
Available in .epub, .mobi, and .pdf formats.

COURSE: Model-Based Enterprise Transformation
Model-Based Enterprise is a big transformation. Learn the fundamental concepts of the digitally connected enterprise from Model-Based philosophies to MBD’s critical components to MBD use cases that will help you establish your transformation roadmap. This course provides the introductory concepts for conversations that you need to put your organization on the road to MBD success.
10 modules.
COURSE: Reviewing & Commenting 3D PDFs
Using a lightweight viewer such as Adobe Reader is a strategy to enable Model-Based Definition (MBD) sharing in any type of manufacturing. Learn more about how to create, review, and comment on 3D PDF. Also, learn how it can instantiate a Technical Data Package (TDP), as defined by MIL-STD 31000.
4 modules.
COURSE: GD&T for MBD
Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) is so much easier when applied in 3D. This course provides in-depth learning on the fundamentals of GD&T and will make your MBD application straightforward. Don’t forget to use the examples in the CAD Toolkit to practice what you’ve learned.
6 modules.
COURSE: How to Author MBD in SOLIDWORKS
Watch quick tutorials on creating annotations, attributes, and presentation states in a SOLIDWORKS part. This utilizes DimXpert and the MBD Module (needed to create the Presentation States).
12 modules.
COURSE: Intro to MBD
Take a deeper dive into MBD. Learn terminology defined in standards. Understand annotation nuance and why understanding their capabilities are can affect your downstream consumption.
6 modules.
COURSE: Using Agile for MBE Implementation
We strongly believe that using an Agile mindset and Scrum are the best way to keep your MBE journey rolling along. Learn a few key enablers to kick off your Agile and Scrum practice.
