Since switching to 2009 I have noticed that when I drop a part into an assembly its appearance is always shaded w/o edges, even though the rest of the assembly is shaded w/ edges. To get edges back on my new part I have to open the part and rebuild it. Its not a big problem, just kind of...
Im running XP 64 and SP3.0
Right now Im able to sweep threads by drawing the triangular section, then sweeping along a straight line drawn through the axis, using "twist along path" and specifying pitch by the number of twists along the line drawn through the axis...
My neighbor is running 32...
I am trying to sweep a triangular cross section through a helix to put threads on my part. Ive not had problems in any of the previous versions doing this and since we've installed 2009 I am no longer able to do this. Ive been using all of the usual tricks that have worked in the past and I...
I've got some new questions now....
I wound the stator, did as Maj suggested and found a one piece regulator rectifier unit (12V DC output, rated to 160W). I installed the new stator in the bike, wired the rec/reg unit and then I just plugged the leads into a 20W bulb that I had lying around...
Bill,
This was what I was wondering about, whether the drag was already there before the extra windings were added (assuming the lighting system is turned off).
It is a 150, Honda CRF150F to be exact. Basically a kids trail bike.
Here is a picture of the stator that shows the 8 posts and the 2 that were wound for the ignition. - http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1977/138/112/579926962/n579926962_2150864_6376205.jpg
Thanks for the answers...
I have some basic questions about a stator. Specifically this one is in a motorcycle.
The stator in question is static, has 8 posts, and 2 of them are wound for an ignition circuit. The remaining 6 posts are empty. I am planning to use them for a lighting circuit. Lets assume the lighting...
Im looking to measure thousandths, +/-.0005" would be acceptable for my needs. I can take my parts to the machine. I was hoping to find a 3 axis CMM machine to pick off most of my measurements, with a 4th axis tilting stylus, similar to a test indicator, that could acts as a profilometer to pick...
Im looking for an off-the-shelf hole inspection system. I want to measure things like:
circularity
straightness
taper
angularity/perpendicularity
diameter
surface roughness
etc.
The holes I am planning to inspect will be drilled. Diameters ranging from 1/4"-1.0"
Anybody work with these machines...
Is there a certain pitch that a ballscrew can no longer be back driven?
I am looking at using a 2or 4mm pitch ball screw and nut. In the application the screw will be turned by hand only 1/4-1/2 of a revolution, but I want the screw to be returned to its original position using a compression...
I modeled a set of 6" calipers, and in the spirit of over doing it I wanted to try to get the digital display to read the measured value. As it is right now the display is a sketch using the text function. Is tere a way to link the text value to the driven dimenison between the caliiper jaws?
Handleman, I kept wrestling with it and I eventually did exactly as you said. One thing that I did learn was that the path must be perfectly smooth with no interruptions(i.e. spline) to mate a point to it. If you make your curve from two tangent arcs it wont want to mate a point to it.
