Presentation:
"Nesting with SOLIDWORKS with Cloud Services" led by Ryan Field

Ryan will go over the nesting capabilities that are part of SOLIDWORKS with Cloud Services as well as some modeling techniques for creating sheet metal parts.

As a returning presenter and frequent guest, many of you already know him, but for those who don't, Ryan Field is currently a Sr. Applications Engineer with GoEngineer. He received his bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering and associate’s degree in Plastics Engineering Technology from Penn State Behrend. As a co-op, over 20 years ago, he was introduced to SOLIDWORKS and has been an advocate ever since. Prior to joining the SOLIDWORKS Reseller Channel in 2015, he held several engineering roles in different industries but primarily focused on machine design. He is a CSWE and SOLIDWORKS Elite AE. He enjoys sharing his knowledge and experience with others to try and help them more efficiently get their jobs done. He currently resides near Cleveland, Ohio with his wife and two young kids.

Please RSVP to help ensure we prepare enough food, and plan to join us on the 25th of August!
