Features: Pro／ENGINEER, as a computer-aided design software based on workstations and microcomputers, has a wide user base worldwide, especially in the field of engineering design. For over a decade, it has maintained a 30% market share. In May 2006, the release of Pro／ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0 undoubtedly provided users with a more powerful, user-friendly, and faster design platform. As an example-based book on Pro／ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0, all the examples are derived from engineering practice and carefully selected, making them classic and practical. The book is divided into 12 chapters, covering 56 typical engineering examples to demonstrate key functions of Pro／ENGINEER, such as sketch modeling, feature modeling, surface design, sheet metal design, mold design, and assembly design. Each chapter has a progressive relationship, and readers without prior experience with the software are recommended to follow the chapter order for learning. In terms of content, the examples are explained in three levels: "Example Description," "Learning Objectives," and "Operation Steps," with necessary tips provided for important functions and key knowledge points. This approach not only helps readers quickly and deeply understand some abstract concepts and complex functions in Pro／ENGINEER but also enables them to master modeling methods for typical parts, achieving the effect of learning by analogy. The book strives for high coverage of knowledge points, progressive chapter arrangement, and practical engineering examples, making it suitable for both beginner and intermediate users. It can also serve as supplementary teaching material for mechanical design-related majors in colleges and universities, as well as a reference for various engineering technicians and professionals in engineering-related fields.
