In this chapter, we learned various skills relating to SOLIDWORKS assemblies tools. We started with Interference and Collision Detection tools to enable us to know whether two or more parts are interfering with each other in a static position or colliding with each other in a dynamic movement. Next, we learned about assembly features, which are subtractive features that are applied and stored with the assembly file rather than the part file. Finally, we learned about configurations and design tables, which enabled us to generate multiple variations of an assembly within one assembly file.
Overall, the skills we have learned in this chapter will enable us to better meet different design intents by evaluating, adjusting, and varying our assemblies' outcomes.
