That is true. We have a Function Key STL in V4. It allows creation of STL's and control of the settings. Also you can import, analyze and repair them if you want. Repair is like drawing a circle with an Etch-a-Sketch, but can be done.
I used V5 last year for the first time to creat several STL files for tooling. We use them for Stereolithography and LOM slice (paper medium). If you don't have the specific STL license, which I don't in V5, do in V4, the go to TOOLS/OPTIONS/GENERAL/DISPLAY then click the Performances tab. Under...
I'm in this same situation. I use Catia V4 (UNIX) for my production work, but I took a college course in basic V5 and I have a V5R12 test license on my PC. We used Catia V5 Workbook by Richard Cozzens at school, but you can get the book for about $60.00 online. The college course cost me $1300...
I'd like to ad Fonts to my drafting work bench. I only have 2 Fonts if I create a new drawing sheet (SSS1 and ROM3.) I read in one drawing from the Badencorp Advanced training companion disk and it is loaded with them (Fonts I mean). I'm running V5R12 on Windows XP Pro.
As an N/C programmer, part of my job is to 5 axis program core details (non-metalic) for aircraft bond assemblies. We use several special cutters and some leave a rough finish which we currently remove with finish passes and sanding. What effect would a fuzzy core finish have on bond strength...
Thanks for the input. I tried again, this time it worked in Symmetry If I pre select the geometry only. I think before I had selected the Sketch which tried to Sym the constraints. What seems odd is if I use Mirror or Symmetry I Don't get an option to copy the constraints. With rotate I get to...
I created a sketch which is a cross section of a drill bit. I wanted to create half the profile, then mirror to duplicate, then symmetry to get the opposite side of the drill profile. The problem is Operations won't allow me to preselect or multi select the sketch geometry, so I have to select...
Yes, that did help. I finally got it to work by adding the 1/2 formula to my sketch parameter. It seems to work well, except for a few typo's in my spread sheet. This was a good practice, allowed me to keep the profile sketch simple.
Thanks.
I created a model with an Excel design table of parameters for Morse Tapers. I created a sketch of the profile that contains the large radius="A",length = "L", and small radius = "B". I created the solid shaft By rotating 360 Deg around the Y axis.
My Excel sheet contains Diameter values for A...
I can only guess exactly what the error means.I have had it occurseveral times . Once in Sheetmetal Design, I tried to use the Walls Recognition and got the error. The part had 4 flanges, but one of the flanges was created with two different sketches on the same plane. I deleted the flanges one...
I've had a similar problem. So far my solution has been to create a "point by clicking" at any near by location, then constrain the point to the line or circle either by dimension or by concentric constraint. You also might want to click on the "construction geometry " tool...
I was refering to the splicing of individual pre preg plys, particularly in structural parts with up to 15 plys. The problem I would like to improve is the bag size humps in the edgeband of parts that must mate and fair into the aircraft loft. Loft side is the tool side but ,but when installing...
I have used the STL function key with Catia V4 for several years. It must be a Catia product. It creates,imports,exports, analyzes and repairs the STL model. Also if you have access to Vericut it may have the option to create STL files.
