4 SolidWorks Courses
One Autodesk Authorized Training Institute
Tailored SolidWorks curriculums designed for specific engineering disciplines.
Master the complete SolidWorks 3D design workflow — from parametric part modeling to complex assemblies and professional 2D drawing generation. The foundational skill that powers every other SolidWorks specialisation and the #1 skill demanded by mechanical employers.
- Parametric part modeling & feature tree
- Sketching, constraints & relations
- Extrude, revolve, sweep, loft features
- Assembly design & mate types
- Top-down & bottom-up assembly approach
- 2D engineering drawing generation
- Bill of Materials (BOM) & annotations
- Design intent & modeling best practices
Learn to run structural, thermal, and fatigue analysis directly inside SolidWorks — without needing separate FEA software. SolidWorks Simulation is the skill that separates a basic CAD operator from a true design engineer and commands a significantly higher salary in the market.
- Introduction to FEA concepts
- Static structural analysis
- Thermal analysis & heat transfer
- Frequency & buckling analysis
- Fatigue analysis & life prediction
- Mesh controls & convergence study
- Interpreting stress, strain & displacement results
- Design optimization using simulation data
Design precision sheet metal components, enclosures, brackets, and fabricated parts that go directly into production. SolidWorks Sheet Metal is a specialized, high-demand skill in automotive, electronics, HVAC, and manufacturing industries — and one of the fastest paths to a job in fabrication design.
- Sheet metal fundamentals & terminology
- Base flange, edge flange & miter flange
- Hem, jog & sketched bend features
- Lofted bends & forming tools
- Flat pattern generation & bend allowance
- K-factor & bend deduction calculations
- Cut list & manufacturing drawings
- Converting solid parts to sheet metal
- Forming tools & Punching tools Concepts
Create complex structural frames, trusses, conveyor systems, and welded assemblies using SolidWorks Weldments — the dedicated tool for structural design professionals. Highly valued in heavy engineering, infrastructure, and industrial equipment manufacturing.
- Weldment profiles & structural members
- Custom profile library creation
- Trim & extend structural members
- Gussets, end caps & weld beads
- Cut list & weldment properties
- Multi-body part design
- Weldment drawings & annotations
- BOM & welding symbols as per standards

Our Students Love Piper CADD
"I joined PiperCADD as a mechanical fresher who had never touched SolidWorks before. In 60 days, I completed the 3D Modeling course got placed at a product design company. The trainer explained everything with real manufacturing examples — not just clicks and commands."
"I was working as a mechanical engineer for 4 years but stuck at the same salary level. After completing SolidWorks Simulation at PiperCADD, I moved to an R&D role with a 48% salary increase. The simulation module taught me to think like a real design analyst — that skill alone changed everything."
"As a diploma holder, I was worried the course would be too advanced for me. But the faculty at PiperCADD started from the very basics and patiently built up my skills. I completed both 3D Modeling and Sheet Metal courses, and got placed in a manufacturing company within 6 weeks of finishing."

Frequently Asked Questions
Anyone with a basic mechanical or engineering background can enroll — BE/B.Tech Mechanical, Diploma (Mech/Production/Auto), working engineers, and even product designers with no prior 3D CAD experience. Our trainers start from absolute basics, so no prior SolidWorks knowledge is required.
AutoCAD is primarily used for 2D drafting and basic 3D. SolidWorks is a dedicated 3D parametric solid modeling software built specifically for mechanical, product, and manufacturing design. SolidWorks allows you to simulate, test, and analyze your designs — making it far more powerful for mechanical engineering applications.
The complete SolidWorks course covers 60+ hours across approximately 60 days. Individual specialisation courses (3D Modeling, Simulation, Sheet Metal, or Weldments) can be completed in 20–25 days each. We also offer a complete package covering all four specialisations for students who want comprehensive training.
Absolutely. SolidWorks — especially with Simulation — is one of the most in-demand and highest-paying CAD skills in mechanical engineering today. Our working professional students consistently report salary hikes of 35–50% within 6 months of completing the course and certification.
Yes — 100% placement support is included. We assist with resume building, mock technical interviews, LinkedIn optimization, and direct referrals to 50+ hiring partners in automotive, manufacturing, product design, HVAC, and heavy engineering sectors. Lifetime alumni placement support is also provided.
Yes! Our live online SolidWorks classes are conducted via Zoom/Google Meet with the same trainer, same live projects, same certification, and same placement support as our offline batches. Students from across Tamil Nadu, other states, and even from abroad join our online batches regularly.
Fees vary based on the specialisation and batch type you choose. EMI options are available. Fill the enquiry form above and our counsellor will call you within 30 minutes with the complete fee structure, current offers, and combo deals — with zero pressure to enroll.
