Radar Mast & Final Assembly of Yacht

MODELING AND ASSEMBLY OF AN AMERICAN PREDATOR YATCH

OBJECTIVE:-

  • The main objective of this project is to create an entire American predator yacht using Solidworks.
  • assemble different types of yacht parts into an assembly workbench using appropriate mates.
  • to create 3d rendered images of the yacht using photo view 360 and Solidworks visualize.

INTRODUCTION:-

  • SOLIDWORKS:- IN this project we will use Solidworks for building an American predator yatch mainly we will use surfaces for this project and learn different surface creation tools and techniques such as boundary surfaces, lofted surfaces, filled surfaces, extend surfaces, and so on. we can create complex curves using Solidworks surfacing tools, making Solidworks an extremely useful software for 3d modeling.
  • AMERICAN PREDATOR YATCH:- yatches are used for pleasure activities by some rich people and it is now a symbol of luxury. American predator yatches are built by Royal De Vries Aalsmeer.
