Kompas 3D Basics: Modeling Simple 3D Objects

Starting with 3D computer-aided design can feel overwhelming without clear guidance. This text-based course introduces you to the core workflows of Kompas 3D, enabling you to bring mechanical ideas and object designs into functional three-dimensional models. You will learn how to: Understand foundational CAD concepts, interface navigation, and essential terminology; Create parametric 2D sketches using geometric constraints and precise dimensions; Build solid 3D models using extrusion and revolution operations; Refine objects using fillets, chamfers, and simple structural modifications; Generate standard 2D technical drawings directly from your 3D models; Explore best practices for maintaining clean feature trees and design intent. The course starts with basic terms and interface layout before guiding you step-by-step through practical written exercises. Designed specifically for absolute beginners, this course requires no previous CAD or engineering experience. Start building your 3D modeling skills today.
