Creating a solid structure from a negative volume advice
Creating a solid structure from a negative volume advice
(OP)
Hello,
Very very new to ProE and wondering if anyone can offer some advice / best practice on how to tackle my challenge.
I have a complex shape (combustion chamber, inlet/outlet valves etc) which is in negative volume form. i.e. There is no cylinder wall thickness or volume.
My question is, what is the best way to go about creating the solid engine block from this negative. Just advice and pointers is all I ask and I shall learn the hard way.. just want to make sure I go down the right track.
Thanks,
S

Hope that helps and be prepared for a potentially steep 'learning curve' with ProE/Creo. It was tough for me getting through the wildfire releases after switching from SolidWorks but there is quite a bit of information on these forums so good luck.
