    Simple trailer stat. struct. analysis boundary conditions

    Hi everyone! Absolute beginner here. Have mercy! I`m setting up a static structural analysis for a simple trailer. The setup and simplified trailer schematic is shown on the attached pic. At the momement I`m using the axel bores to apply cyindrical constraints. But the problem with this...

    Drawing type

    3DDave, "An engineering drawing typically shows only the final configuration of the part or assembly"..I`ve been used to think this way also. And I have also noticed that some companies tend to put flat patterns to a sheetmetal part drawing. To some degree it makes sense in my mind because...

    Drawing type

    Hatsegal, Not exactly because of the filler material addition, but rather because usually welding drawings are considered as assembly drawings. But I think I get the direction you are heading with your question. I myself would rahter call it a part drawing. But if you would call it a part...

    Drawing type

    Thanks for the answer drawoh! But my point was that it is one part also BEFORE welding! The box is made from single sheet metal piece by bending up the sides (flanges) and then welding the corners. So my confusion is that whether the drawing of this part should be considered as a part drawing...

    Drawing type

    Hi All Say you have a part like the one on the attached pic. Basically it`s a single part that is manufactured by laser cutting, bending and welding (red corners on the pic). If one would create a drawing for the part, would that drawing be considered as a part drawing or a welding assembly...

    Predefine Item Number of a part in a ASSY draft

    Hello, Back in engineering college when we drafted by hand we used the following designation system: If an assembly designated as XX_01.00 has three parts, then they are designated as XX_01.01 (part #1), XX_01.02 (part #2) and XX_01.03. (part #1). On the ASSY drawing the item numbers match the...

    CMM uncertainty

    Hello, The length measuring accuraccy for CMM-s is stated with parameters E0,MPE and E150,MPE according to ISO 10360-2. Can someone please clarify: 1) What is the practical diffence between parameters E0,MPE and E150,MPE? 2) If for example the E0,MPE for given length equals to ±3.6 µm then is...

    GD€&T in SolidEdge Draft

    I have an academic copy of ST9 so i´m not sure if you can open it. But i made another explanatory pic. I can create the FCF the way you did in your pic and i can but the hole nominal diameter on top of the FCF (with Callout). Additionally i can put the tolerance class behind the nominal dimeter...

    GD€&T in SolidEdge Draft

    So you use callout for hole dimensioning and not smart dimension? In this case how to you apply tolerance class with deviations to the hole nominal diameter(as in my example)? If I use callout then yes the FCF snaps to the dimension line but it snaps to the upper corner or lower corner of the...

    GD€&T in SolidEdge Draft

    Thanks for the answer swertel. I did as you suggested and got some results but it`s still not 100 % the way I want it to be (please see the pic). Maybe I misunderstood the snapping to dimension part.. when I drag it on top the dimension then the dimension highligths (in red color) but nothing...

    GD€&T in SolidEdge Draft

    Hi, I`m currently using SOlidEdge ST9 and creating a part drawing in draft. I want to apply a position tolerance to a hole and also show the hole diameter (with tolerance class) above the FCF as stated in ISO 1101. How to put the hole dimension above the FCF? The situation can be seen on the...
