I have tried searching for this and could find similar external references problem but not this one...
I have an assembly (Ass A) which has a skeleton part within it (Skeleton A). There are a bunch of other parts (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4.....).
All the parts are defined within the...
I am new to surface modelling so any help on this would be great...
I want to draw a sketch on a surface then split that surface using the sketch into separate surface bodies. I would like to be able to do this in one feature?
I have tried using the split line feature which looks like it gives...
Hi guys, this is pretty simple but is not my field.
I have a drum with a taught rope over it. The rope has tension, T and a wrap angle of theta degrees. It is a static problem. What is the distribution of force on the surface of the drum over the wrap angle theta, as a function of theta? The...
I have two sheetmetat bodies and I would like to join them using a mitre flange. I have defined the mitere flange using a sketch.
At the moment I can only get the mitre flange to attach to one of the bodies.
Thanks in advance, Chris.
This may have been answered before but searching flat pattern and configuration yields no relevant results.
I have a part file which is a frame, the frame is split into two bodies and there are 20 different sizes (A,B,C, D etc.)
I want a drawing which has 20 different flat patterns...
I have had a bug with the sheet metal feature of SW2011, SP0.
I usually create sheet metal parts for door frames then do a 45° cut in the corners to create a mitre. When solidowkrs notices the 45° cut intersecting a faces normal to the sketch plane it jogs the cut, however for some reason it...
I would like to pattern the hole around the sketch line (highlighted blue). The sketch like is an offset of the outside edge.
The curve driven pattern is not letting me do this I think as it says the curve must be composed of a single contour.
It is important to select the curve as a whole and...
In my company I am often asked to take Autocad drawing of the cross section of extrusion profiles and convert them into library features for Solidowkrs weldments.
The process I use is to Copy/Paste the drawing into a sketch then go through each of the lines and click relationships such as...
I don't know if this is a problem with SW 2010 SP 4 or if it's just me?
When I create a sheet metal part using the "Convert to Sheet Metal" tool I always get auto reliefs and even when I unchecked the button for auto reliefs they come back?
Can someone with SP4 verify this, it's driving me insane!
I have a weldment part with two configurations which have different sizes.
The configuration hierarchy is as such:
-Default
-a
-b
I would like to create a drawing with the two views of the weldment part and in the drawing attached. I would also like then to have two weldment cut...
I would like to know how to set up my diagonal member so that each end is located by a different pierce point. This would allow each end to only have one cut and the cuts would be parallel.
Attached is a picture of the solidmodel with what I have, also a drawing in paint of what I want.
I...
I have a model of a door. I would like to offset all surfaces by 0.5mm to represent painting the door, this would create a new solid model which I could put into an assembly and then I could define components from the painted door.
How would I do this? Is it a good idea?
Thanks in advance, Chris.
I would like to put simple line sketches of parts in an MS Word report.
I want a lossless file that looks similar to the pdf with sharp lines.
How can I do this, I can first convert it into a drawing with no title block but then what shal I save it as? Shal I use the edrawings program...
The attachment is a solid body of half a fish. I would like to shell out the inside of the highlighted sketch which would make the body of the fish hollow with a wall thickness of 1mm and the tail solid.
My question is how do I do an extruded cut of the sketch to and make it finish inside the...
