    prototype method

    Once again thnks ! I didn't get much useful info. But, what I understood is as below: So If we arrange to suck the heated plastic against the master pattern & it generates the shape of the pattern. Allow it to cool & have your part ready. Doesn't it looks like Thermo form part rather than...

    prototype method

    Thanks for reply, For the RTV Silicon mold, make SLA Master pattern; Pour the silicon rubber around the pattern & Urethane can be used to fill the part. I should have more clarified question at the first time, (1) The question is does Vaccum forming having similar process like RTV Silicon...

    prototype method

    I need to order 20-25 prototype plastic parts for testing. Can anyone suggest economic prototype method? (famililar with SlA/SLS but its limted for very few qty) Also, can anyone tell me the difference between Silicon RTV & Vaccum forming in terms of prototype method. Suggest, any website/book...

    position tolerance

    If I understand the question, the ans is ASME Y14.5, drafting standards

    position tolerance

    I have given GD & T Condition for mount hole location - 1st box having diametric tolerance of 5 mm & three more box with datum A, B & C. (There is no Max or min material condition). Also, There is a basic dimension from datum A,B,C to hole. The hole dia is 25 mm, Making the hole through...

    draft question?

    First apply the draft & then apply fillet, That's always true for plastic part, Isn't it? (1) I'm trying to solve the mystery why I'm loosing the thickness at the corner ? (I used the draft version of sketch, extruded & then applied 35 mm radius at 2 corner & lost the thickness. Due to lost...

    draft question?

    Can you be little bit more precise, like you wanted me go through draft/edge fillet on v5 or something else?

    draft question?

    Hello! I have few ribs with uniform thickness 1.5 mm in my model. (the shape of rib is similar to U shape except there is a flat edge at the bottom with end corner) Now, I would like to apply draft but not getting success. I tried to create a sketch with draft angle & did work but there is 35...

    boolean operation

    Thnks for reply, Just one more question wanted to raise related to my previous model (enabled hybrid design) & the the one that i will be making new one for the same model(without hybrid design or with geomtric set). Actually, I will be end up doing the same operation like boolean operation...

    boolean operation

    That's the quick reply but to avoid next time any big mistakes, I will appreciate if you can reply few more ans, (A) Which option you want me to choose out of three? (1)Enable hybrid design, (2) Create a geometrical set (3) Create an ordered geometrical set (B) Is any way to find if the...

    boolean operation

    Basically, I do have HD2, catia v5 R16 license & novice user. I tried to read the past reply @ hybrid desgin & learned that when we use surface (open bodies) & solid together, assuming class A surface people will need more. on my system, The default clicked option is - Enable hybrid design...

    boolean operation

    As you know, When we start new part, we get 3 options, (1) enable hybrid design (2) Create a geometrical set (3) Create an ordered geometrical set So which option I need to click when starting new part, (my part is hollow one with few ribs) I don't see any problem right away by clicking "yes"...
