Replacing a part with another part in an assembly.Doing collision detection when moving a part in an assembly.

Segment 3: (80 Minutes – 77 points to pass/109 points maximum) Changing and/or rearranging features of an existing SOLIDWORKS part.Creation of configurations using a Design Table.Creating configurations from other configurations.Segment 2: (50 Minutes – 77 points to pass/104 points maximum) Modifying parameters on the part at different stages while maintaining all other dimensions and design intent.Modifying geometry on initial part to create a more complex part.Updating parameters and dimension sizes.Using linked dimensions and equations to aid in modeling.Segment 1: (70 Minutes – 75 points to pass/105 points maximum) Once all three segments have been successfully completed, you will automatically receive your CSWP Certification.Įxam may feature hands-on challenges in some of these areas: If you fail a segment, you will be able to purchase just that segment and take it again.
