solidworks calls it a jog every where I've worked it is called an offset. and a lazy offset is when you don't bottlom out the break pess punch so your the resulting "offset" is different than the one it the tool was made for. you end up with a slight angle instead of two 90's
anyway I figured...
CHECK OUT THE LASER ENGINEERING BOARD
CHECK OUT THIS THREAD IF YOU HAVEN'T http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=227789&page=1
HOPE THAT HELPS i USE A MITSUBISHI SO i REALLY CAN'T TELL YOU ABOUT AMADA OR TRUMP ALTOGH THERE HAVE MANY RELATED THREADS ON THAT BOARD
dude there is nothing wrong with being a glorifed cad monkey. The pay is the same as the other engineers I graduated with in college. I am happy were I am at I enjoy my work. Also I started as to work really low in the food chain. now I am a "glorifed cad monkey" (I am exagerating a little...
my guess is the problem is the reflective ness of the material there are fancy graphite powders and then there is dish soap I haven't actually encountered these stituations but from people that have ran exotic materials told me that If I run shinny materials(even if the material is dull the...
think of real life you can't have a weldment with two different materials (typically) however you can assemble things into it before or after welding usually after
my two cents I agree that most upgrades with SW or any other software are to push new hardware. Where I work some cleints send SW files and if our version is not what they have or higher then we would not be able to open it you. so at least in our casewe do need the upgrades and I personally...
thats not entirely true light can bend. a black hole has enough gravity to pull light. so it is possible to have enough gravity to pull light. now can it be done in practice well no it has not been done yet.
JDana I understand why you are saying to punch the hole in half the diameter. but I don't think punching holes that are half the material thickness is a good idea you might just end with a bigger head ache and a bunch of expensive scrap. it is doable but never recommend to punch less than a...
machining would be insanely expensive as eromlignod said a laser is your best bet If you don't have a laser find a shop that does if you are in the states try www.accuratemetalfab.com they are very good and have those capabilities. They have done perf on their laser before. If you are not in...
well they make pems for as thin a 24 ga then you could form the tabs instead of welding and since you will not be cutting threads into the metal then you don't need to worry about the torque twisting the metal. I don't know if you are from a sheet metal shop or designing something out of sheet...
there are ways but if I told you I will have to kill you no seriously there are ways but its illegal and I would be in trouble with the law along with you for telling you the correct way and legal way is as IRstuff said buy another copy
most cam softwares have a CAD portion to it others sell the CAD seperately then there are some CAD software packages that have CAM plug ins I know Pro E has an add-on to program mills I used that plug-in in college. yes you want your CAD/CAM to be integrated so you don't have to re-import the...
I have run into the issue you are describing. it usually happens with parts our customers sends parts that are not drawn the best way i personaly find it easier and faster to redraw it than to sit there and debug it. if somebody does know a quick way to solve that please do share i am also...
I have never tried it but make sure to look into how aluminum and copper react you don't want to start a metal fire and then diferent materials have different cutting conditions so you may have problems in that way. then you might want the head kind of high and turn hight control off so it...
