    Revolve a Curve by Table

    This is driving me nuts. Using Solid Edge ST2 Synchronous ISO Part. I have a list of points that form a 2D closed curve. I store them in a three-column Excel sheet with x,y,z coordinates in mm (where all the y points are 0). Here is that Excel sheet: http://www.psfc.mit.edu/~golynyk/lcfs.xls...

    Control Solid Edge from other programs (e.g. MATLAB)?

    Hi everyone, This is a bit of an unusual request, so I'll try to explain the context. We are doing a multidimensional optimization of a tokamak fusion reactor, and have a CAD model built in Solid Edge ST2 Synchronous which is parametrically driven. So there is a Variables table (currently...

    Solid Edge ST2 Excel Link for Synchronous Part

    The instructions for linking a Solid Edge part to an Excel sheet (so that I can dynamically drive dimensions in the part from the Excel sheet) don't seem to work for Synchronous Part in ST2. Is there a way to make this work for Sync parts?

    Black background on pictorial view when print to PDF

    Hi everyone, Fairly simple problem here, but it's driving me (and everyone else in my lab) nuts. Here is a screenshot of Solid Edge ST2 Draft, showing a pictorial view of my assembly. Settings for the pictorial view (right-click the view, choose Properties > View Shading tab) are "Shaded...

    Save to PDF with higher accuracy

    Hi all, I am trying to get a highly accurate PDF (vector) image of a 2-D isometric view with hidden lines off in Solid Edge ST2. It's a complex assembly drawing. I can get it to export, no problem, by using Solid Edge menu > Save As > Save As Translated... However, as you can see in the...

    Fuel Flow Rate Gauge in Instrument Panel

    Hello all. So as I was riding to see War of the Worlds last night in a friends 1998 extended-cab extended-box 5.4L V8 F150, I got thinking about fuel economy and conservation (surprise, eh?). It's an interest of mine, and one of my strong beliefs is that technology can only take us so far on...

    Derivation of Cv (flow coefficient)

    Greetings everyone. I've just started at a small valve manufacturing company. I'm building a test rig to do the classic "flow rate vs. pressure drop" test on our products (injection quills and pressure relief valves). I'll then be preparing brochures/data sheets for each product. (Small place...
