I have asked the question below in another way.
Like one who have given a help tip previously, I have come to conclude without mathematical basis that curved surfaces that can be perfectly flattened can only come from surface developments or profiles that have cylindrical, conical, corrugated...
Thanks to the guys for having answered my other questions before.
Using Solidworks, I want to drill holes on an assembly of column, beams and plates (or multi-body model of such parts), intending to have perfectly aligned M12 holes cut with the Hole Wizard and plates perfectly mating with the...
In Solidworks, when you click on the Toolbox, Structural Steel command, the first choices are Ansi inch, BIS, CISC, ISO, DIN and other standards. Is there an add-in to Solidworks that incorporates Australian structural steel standards? Or is there a shortcut way to incorporate the Australian...
Thanks, anyway, guys. I'm into simplifying some common designs with complex curved surfaces, and I wanted to replace these designs with simple curved surfaces that can flatten out--with plain sheet metal. I saw the feature in a boat hull designing feature and thought Solidworks might have a...
In solidworks, is there a way to detect if a curved surface can be developed into a flat surface or not?
(Outside of the SHEET METAL command to FOLD and UNFOLD) is there a way to develop or unfold into a flat surface a developable curved surface or the developable curved surface of a solid...
In Solidworks, starting with 3D STRUCTURAL drawings to generate 2D drawing, how can I ADD, COMBINE or PUT in one sheet the front view, side view and top view of drawings of a FEW break view beams and a FEW assemblies with break view beams?
Thanks to you guys. I have in fact checked my Solidworks 2D drawings window myself and found and used the break command. However, I could not find any command to SHORTEN a broken long beam. Can anybody help me?
