When conducting a simulation, it is very important to choose the right options. It is, that the restraint conditions have the greatest impact on the results. However, there are many more components. Lately, During some calculations, I tried to compare the exact contact options. You can do this option (and in fact you should) enable in the study properties. W zakładce Opcje należy zaznaczyć Popraw dokładność...
You can change the radius to diameter or vice versa in many ways. However, since the SOLIDWORKS version 2023 there is an option to select when inserting a dimension. To do it, when inserting, select the CTRL combination + D. This applies to both drawing documentation and part modeling.
A linear pattern is one of the basic patterns for duplicating features or objects. But did you know, that it is not the best choice in every situation? I will include an example below, in which it is better to choose another operation to perform the array. It sounds mysterious, but this operation is Move/Copy. In formation (depending on type) we provide the number of repetitions and spacing. But...
On the Sketch tab, next to arrays and relations there is a Move elements command. Most of you have probably used this using the rotate command, transfer or scale. Today I would like to show you the Stretch Elements option. This operation allows you to detach selected sketch elements and attach them elsewhere. You can move them along X coordinates, Y or w...
Along with the version of SolidWorks 2024 PhotoView has disappeared from add-ons 360. Jedynym programem do renderowania pozostał Visualize, which was developed in parallel for several years. As a user who has been working in SW for many years, I would prefer to have a choice, which program to use. No less, just like in the past, PhotoWorks was abandoned in favor of PhotoView, tak i tym razem nastala zmiana niezależna od...
Operation 3D Interconnect, which has been present in SOLIDWORKS since 2017 year has gained new options. Distribute the operation in files imported as 3D Interconnect With SOLIDWORKS 2023 SP2 the following choices appeared. If you check Function and component level, the imported assembly will be loaded as follows: If you choose the second option, you will see the function level in the tree:
Cross-talk detection basically works in a specific fixed situation. But there is an exception to this – during Motion traffic analyses, you can check crossfade over a time period. The point is, that if during a defined movement, cross-talk may occur, then it can be determined. To do this, select Check Interference at the top level under the right button. Then we choose....
I present simple ways to change the color or hatching style in sections and half-views - half-sections. Both solutions require the inclusion of additional toolbars – Line Format or Layer. 1. format lines. Select the dashed area and on the Line Format tab, select Color. Remember to switch the color switching mode. 2. Layer. Layers in....
Version of SolidWorks 2023 it is possible to pull out sheet metal with symmetrical thickening. Previously, there was an option to add thickness in one direction from the sketch. You can also use this option in the Lofted Bend operation, however, only in the bent and not shaped subtype.
By inserting an Excel configuration table, the color column is generated by default. As you know, the standard color of models in SOLIDWORKS is gray. However, we do not use colors in the table, like: red, black or blue. The table uses a numerical term. So how can you determine the selected color from the table?? There is a special pattern for this purpose. But before I write about it,...
