    Material Mold

    Yes it's the specialized Tarmac frame ;-). I'm thinking about to make my own carbon rim, but I have no idea what mold material i have to use. http://www.carbonsports.de/Produkte/Lightweight/Geschichte/Werkstatt.jpg (makers of the "lightweight wheels") looks like the rim in the back is...

    Evaluating 3d software

    Number of individual components: 300-500 Total components: 2000-3000 parts (mostley devided in 7-9 assemblies). Kind regards. Qube

    Evaluating 3d software

    Do you think Unigraphics can solve the problem on 2d?

    Evaluating 3d software

    Hello, This is my Prob. Today we're still using IV 5.3. They promised us a full capable mechanical software, We recieved an unstable software, missing some of the needed tools to create mechanical drawings. Buying IV was not an "ROI" for us, instead it was/is an huge cost. We're missing...

    Why V4 and V5?

    I've got the feeling that every CAD on windows platform is getting soooo slow. New releases with loads of fancy tools are srugling with performance. It seems that no copmuter can handle the requirements of today's CAD software :-(

    Where can I find this?

    Hello, Normally this is used in the bike industry (fork). This is what I need to reduce my "workshop time" Now we're welding inserts into a tube,but that's too much labor... So where can I find these "Starflanged nuts"? in all kind of sizes? or is it just made for the bike industry? For a...

    Generating Drawings.

    Doesn't pro-e update his drawing views automaticly when changing some parts?

    Generating Drawings.

    Hello, Simple question: We're almost there, only 2 package left to decide : Wildfire m2 and Sw 2004. Which software generates the quickest a drawing And section view of a large assembly. I do not mean how easy (many clicks) it is, just how long does the cpu take untill you get the generated...

    Demo files wanted

    Hello, We're about to change from IV to Pro-e. We made a mistake once with buying IV 5.3. Now is my question: "where can I download some big assemblies" to test some 2d-funtcions and 2d-capabilities within wildfire. Isn't so that the Worldcar (pro-e 2001) is used for benchmarks, so can I...

    PRO/E vs Inventor

    Don't go for inventor!!!! We did it a couple of years ago. Now we're looking for new USEFULL software. IV is just good when you handling max 100 parts. You can't compare a piece of junk like autodesks IV(big marketing machine) with Pro-e. Just invest a ll bit more and you have everything you need.

    2 keyways, tolerating the angle?

    I think Locktite is maybe the best solution in my situation. Due the high torque I really must ensure a perfect fit of the 2 keys. Kind regards.

    2 keyways, tolerating the angle?

    Hi, The bad news is that the keyways are blind en we can't disassemble the input shaft over there :-( So it will be measuring over and over again...but I have to now some allowable clearance between 2nd key/keyflange

    Handbook: Machinery's handbook

    Hello, Just discoverd this forum, great rescource!!!! I often see great recommendations for "Machinery's handbook", Is this also usefull when working with Metrical units? does it cover also eg. DIN or ISO....? kind regards

    2 keyways, tolerating the angle?

    Hello everyone, Thx for the replies, this is the situation (try to explain ;-) I have redesigned an old (+70 years) transmition. I had to start from an existing shaft,with 2 keyways at 120°. No one knows the accuracy of the angle. We can't measure the angle until we start building the new...

    2 keyways, tolerating the angle?

    Hello, Does anyone knows the tolerance of the angle? My keys are at 120°. I've nothing found in the DIN 6885 .Everyone keeps saying "the angle must be as good as possible", but this is no way to go in the shop. Kind regards. Jurgen

    Dumping Inventor, switching to Wildfire

    Thx for the replies..... I have worked some couple of hours with pro-e 2001. I'm wondering now, is the new wildfire become "more" user friendly? I remember 2001 was rather hard to learn. Software like Inventor/Solidworks are easy to learn, is wildfire comparable? What is the...

    Dumping Inventor, switching to Wildfire

    I'm working almost 2.5 years on Inventor now, so I'm quit sure when I say it's Junk for larger assemblies. I never decided to take IV in the first place. Proe was too expensive they said. And look now, after 2 years ;-). Ok, IV-story is over. They keep telling me/us over and over maybe in the...

    Dumping Inventor, switching to Wildfire

    Hello eveyone, Finally we dumped Inventor. That piece of software is just JUNK. We've lost 100's of hours solving errors, loosing data because of unstability. Not speaking of the poor 2d speed/capabilities. We don't start any more new projects in this poor software. We temporaly switch back to...
