A lofted bend in Sheet Metal requires two split sketches. So how to cut a sketch quickly? My solution is to draw a circle in the middle of a line or arc. I then apply the Trim command with the Advanced Trim option and Save Trim Features as Construction Geometry. In the case of a rectangle, we need to add the Equal Length relationship after trimming (or other....
In the Pack and GO dialog box, you can save the fold and drawing with the documents. You can also change the file name or folder individually, in which files you save. To do it, you should double-click the left mouse button on a cell in the selected column, ie. Save to folder or New filename.
I meet various problematic situations in my work, whose solution can be simple or complicated. Let's consider the sheet. At first glance it looks normal. However, no methods can be converted to a baking tray. I present two solutions to the problem, Both are effective, But none is perfect. 1. Premium package holders (and ultimate – bo to Premium plus...
Do you know, that by inserting the table of list of materials in folding, You can supplement adapted properties? This applies to the properties of the user (not those read systemically, like the number of pieces or element number). To add multiple properties en masse, select Edit multiple property values under the right button. However, to change only selected cells – mark them with a frame...
During the submission study in SolidWorks Simulation, it is very important to define contacts. You can define them manually or automate the process. To do this, select calls > Local interaction > Automatically find local interactions. It turns out, that in this case the structure of the assembly is important, Because components can be indicated, between which we tear contacts. If you select the entire assembly....
As you know, Chic with a large number of repetitions can hardly load the computer. I wrote a while ago, what is the preferably preferably. Efficiency in the ranks – you may not know it! Today, supplementing the information, I will share a certain trick. Well, selecting the magic geometry option drastically increases performance! The database is just pulling the addition, which was duplicated on the wall 1441 times....
Operation move/copy is used to move or rotate objects. Depending on your choice: Transfer/rotate or connections, you can use different options. The connections are used to change the location of objects with bonds – similar to assemblies. We have only the basic ones at our disposal. The limitation so far is the inability to copy objects in this mode. On the other hand...
You repair imported files? Or maybe you process 3D scans or just model the surface? The situation can definitely happen, When the most obvious surgery fails. Discover the cause. Surface filling is used to patch holes in surfaces. The default alignment type is Contact, but I change it to Tangent (to everyone). Unfortunately, the operation does not work in the discussed example! W...
Meet my way to dimension really complicated curves, which cannot be treated with ordinary dimension. Also read: Method „invasive” i „non-invasive” Facilitating measurements in drawings, the solution consists in creating a new additional layer – I named by me “Hidden”. This layer will ultimately hidden, But it's better to do it at the end, and not now. Then we draw auxiliary sketch ...
In your work, you certainly meet with various challenges. I see various questions all the time asking for a hint in the performance of or more complex 3D models. I want to share an interesting solution, allowing a model of original sheet metal. Difficulty is to match the bent fragments many times. If the model consisted of one fragment – it would be simple....
