Hi,
With the introduction of CMMs we now have the option of having very detailed measurements of the manufactured parts. However considering a complex part with many sheets in the drawing package, the CMM measurement report becomes very complex. The report is like a book and it is really very...
Hello,
In the attached jpeg, There are two datums defined for the position of the Diameter 5 holes. The GDT box defines the position of the holes with respect two Datums A, B and C.
There is no defined relation for the location of Dia. 5 holes with respect to Datum C (dia 3 hole). How are the...
Hi,
As far as I know, hard anodizing cannot be perceived as coating. Taking this statement into consideration. I would like to know, from your experiences etc., whether it is expected that the dimensions of an aluminum part change after the anodizing or not.
Although we put the drawing note...
Hi,
The question I would like to ask is about the determination of tolerance values when the datum is shown in Maximum Material Condition (MMC) or Least Material Condition (LMC).
From the sample drawing I assume that Datum A is the axis of the 414mm diameter cylinder (Is the assumption...
Hello,
I think some of you may remember a package that was offered for Unigraphics NX2 called Mechsoft Mechanical Design Pack. It was really a very nice piece of software that helps the mechanical engineers (us) to both model and calculate the machine elements and some mechanisms inside the UG...
Hello,
I've considered to ask this question in CATIA forum, but I think it is more related to general mechanical engineering topics.
We've been working on an assembly drawing with a number of parts inside. In one of the sheets, I want to show some detail, but in order to do this I have to hide...
I need to hide all the planes in a product without digging into each part. Sometime in the past I was doing this but now I couldnt find it.
I would be pleased to get some help in the issue.
Best regards
Hi,
What I'm trying to do is basically:
- Suppose we have a bunch of parts to be assembled.
- We add the parts to a product file and assemble them using assembly constraints (3d constraints)
- By using 3D constraints we change the positions and orientations of the parts as required.
- What I...
