    Creo Mechanism Solenoid Simulation

    Hello all, Does anyone have a good reference for simulating a solenoid in Creo Mechanism? I would like to define the plunger movement by using the expected force curve for the solenoid which I obtained through a different simulation. I have a known displacement range for the plunger, and I...

    Detail View Dimensions

    I have a detail view of a groove cut into a larger rod for an o-ring. I want to show the groove diameter in the detail view for clarity. Is there a way to show the dimension in the detail view by pulling the diameter from the groove feature in the detail and the origin view? I can do this in...

    Macros

    Anyone know if you can write macros in ST6? I want to be able to create a PDF from a draft by collecting embedded properties, appending them to a file name, then dropping it into a known file location. For example: my draft is called [Part Number as File Name].dft. I want to save the PDF to be...

    ST4 Sheet Metal Drawings

    I've seen a couple of threads on this topic, and I'm not sure it's ever been resolved. I'm attempting to create a drawing (draft, in SE terms) which shows the formed AND flat "configurations" for a *.psm file. I have an unbend feature in my tree. I have a separate file for the flat pattern...

    Tolerance Analysis

    Hey guys, I'm diving into Tolerance Analysis and was wondering if there's any good tutorials or resources for some key tricks, etc. I've read the attached pdf, and want more since I don't have access to the tutorial files. Thanks! If guns kill people, cars drive drunk.

    Excel CFD

    I already know what you're thinking... why? Maybe even "how?" Independant work, using the tools I have available on my home laptop. I'm not wealthy enough for the fancy software packages for personal use. I have found a nice solver algorithm package as a good starting point, but I want more. I...

    Message Log

    I've looked in the forum for info, and I've checked my config.pro to see if there's a command for doing this. Since I have found no success, I post it to the masses: How do I move the message log from displaying at the top, down to display at the bottom? I'm in WF5. Apparently this was a...

    View Orientation

    I'd like to set up a default view orientation called "Isometric," "Trimetric," and "Dimetric." SWorks has this already programmed into it, and it's a very simple "two clicks and done" operation. What kind of convoluted command sequence do I need to apply so that I can easily select the view as...

    Simple it is not.

    Does anyone have a good list of basic function sequences, such as "rotate drawing view" or similar simple functions? Hopefully it's not like everything else in ProE: convoluted, overly complicated, and requiring a degree of Computer Engineer or IT background. Thanks!

    REVISION SYMBOLS

    http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=251821 This old thread has been closed, unfortunately, but I wanted to put something out there for you all... I've never had much experience with that whole "level I, II, and III" stuff, but revision symbols I am quite familiar with. Simply put, they...

    SolidWorks 2010 Electrical Routing

    Hello all! I'm glad there are so many tips and tutorials on how to use the Electrical Routing in Solid Works, but what I haven't found much on is how to *set up the components* they're using, the wires, and getting those XML files to *update when you do attempt to create a new connector*, etc...

    Casting Standards?

    Does anyone know of a good reference for determining the appropriate standard to use when creating drawings? I'm looking for what standard to call for when interpreting my drawing for a cast part. Thanks!

    SolidWorks Setup, Templates

    I'm using SW2007, trying to set up some basic drawing templates. For some reason I can't get the code to work properly when trying to auto-update things like part number and description when inserting a model view. I think I might be using older syntax, maybe? Does anyone have a directory of...
