Features: Pro/ENGINEER is the flagship product of PTC, and it has been widely used in the mechanical design industry in China. This book aims to improve readers' practical operation skills and design proficiency in the software, avoiding vague explanations of command functions, by integrating the design of reducers throughout the book. Reducers are highly representative components in mechanical design, encompassing various typical structures. This book combines the design of reducer parts to explain the process of product design using Pro/ENGINEER, covering most of the commonly used functions of the CAD module in Pro/ENGINEER. The book consists of 9 chapters. Chapters 1 and 2 provide a brief introduction to the basic knowledge of Pro/ENGINEER. From Chapter 3 to Chapter 7, reducer parts are categorized based on their structural characteristics into shaft-type parts, disc-type parts, gear-type parts, and housing-type parts. The book systematically introduces the functions and command usage of Pro/ENGINEER by integrating the design processes of typical structural parts. The last two chapters cover the process of overall assembly modeling of reducers and the generation of engineering drawings. This book details the steps of reducer design, allowing readers to learn and apply through hands-on examples. In this process, readers can gradually learn the methods of modeling with Pro/ENGINEER and master the basic process of engineering design using Pro/ENGINEER. This book is suitable for self-study and is aimed at a broad audience of engineering design personnel using Pro/ENGINEER software. It can also serve as a training textbook for students and teachers of relevant majors in universities.
