This week a customer asked me a simple question about Flow Simulation: “How do I know where the minimum and maximum values are on my model?” This is a good question as it can be very useful to see exactly where the extreme values are located. For instance, the max temperature hot spot in a heated electronic enclosure or the max velocity point of a liquid through a valve would be useful to know. Let’s take the example of a racing car front wing

In SOLIDWORKS CAD gibt es mehrere Möglichkeiten mit Bildern zu arbeiten. Der Klassiker ist das Abziehbild. Abziehbilder werden verwendet, um ein Bild auf eine Oberfläche zu legen, ähnlich einem Aufkleber. Das Bild wird verwendet, um weitere Informationen auf dem Teil anzubringen wie zum Beispiel Warnhinweise, Schalttafeln oder auch das Firmenlogo

Have you ever heard of the ‘Select Other’ tool in SOLIDWORKS? You may have forgotten about this useful little tool that will help save time on your selections. ‘Select Other’ is a tool that can be used to select entities that are hidden by other geometry within a part or assembly document, without having to reorient it! Selecting the bottom, inner face of this ratchet head without using the mouse or mouse gestures to rotate it has never been easier. All we’ll need to do is right-click on the

Ernesto Mosqueda Some people do not realize what they’re truly passionate about until much later in their lives. You might think you want to be in a certain industry or field for the rest of your life, until that back fires and you start to loathe your occupation. Fortunately for Ernesto Mosqueda, he found his passion for SOLIDWORKS as an adult, changed his profession, and now has new aspirations on what he wants to do for the rest of his life. Starting at the ages of seven and eight, Ernesto

In this article we will discuss several notifications we see when using the PDM add-in in SOLIDWORKS. These revolve around versions and how each version is used in assemblies or sub-assemblies. During customer support I notice that this question comes up every now and then for different level PDM users. This article intents to give insight into what versions are and how they are used.

In this month’s Tech Blog we are going to be kicking off a new series that tracks our journey to implementing Excel automation into our design workflow. I am sure at some point you have all seen previews or demos of the Excel Automation feature of SOLIDWORKS Electrical, however, these demos are usually represented within a very controlled data set that may or may not reflect your industry or design. Due to the fact that the demos are usually very generic, it may be hard to translate how this

Topology studies in SOLIDWORKS Simulation give you insight to help determine the best design for a set of constraints (included in SOLIDWORKS Simulation Professional and Premium packages). SOLIDWORKS 2019 now adds SOLIDWORKS Simulation Topology Study Constraints to achieve the desired results. You can control the Frequencyand Stress/Factor of Safety. Frequency Constraint Frequency constraints can specify the lower/upper limits or range of permissible frequencies for mode shapes.

Markers and Milestones SOLIDWORKS Composer has some great tools to help create animations among which are Markers and Milestones. These two tools allow you to flag significant points on the timeline in your animations. Markers and/or milestones can be used to organize the timeline, help make interactive content and create image output. Let’s focus on using markers and milestones to produce images from key points on the animation timeline.

Vor kurzem habe ich etwas Einzigartiges erlebt. Es war der Launch eines Projektes, dessen Vorbereitung ich bereits seit einigen Jahren unterstütze und dessen Start im September dieses Jahres hoffentlich den Beginn der größten Meeressäuberungsaktion der Geschichte bedeuten wird. Es handelt sich um das Projekt #theoceancleanup.

To do them right requires the proper tool–that’s SOLIDWORKS Composer. It’s easy to use and produces spectacular content that you really can’t–and shouldn’t try to do in CAD. For all the technical documentation you need to create, such as illustrations, work instructions, product manuals, or even interactive online content, Composer 2019 has many exciting enhancements to help you delight your customers. Key dimensions and manufacturing information often need to be displayed even in technical

At SolidSolutions we run training courses for a large variety of manufacturing solutions such as SolidCAM, SWOOD and SigmaNEST alongside the newly introduced SOLIDWORKS CAM. To help make our training courses easier to understand and more relatable to real life working situations we have purchased a 5 axis milling machine to demonstrate the outputs from these programs in action. Not only is this machine versatile in its output, it is also quiet and portable, making it suitable for demonstrations.

Ergonomic products are often designed for adults and while that is already tough enough to perfect, baby products are an even more elusive challenge for many product designers. How would one design products for those who are still learning and refining their motor skills?

1) Use the Large Assembly and Lightweight Modes for Assemblies/DrawingsLarge assembly mode will automatically triggersome set of performance improving options based on a user defined component threshold. Lightweight components have improved opening, rebuild, and closing times. Primarily the graphical information and reference geometry are loaded into memory, but the features that define the part are not loaded into memory. These cannot be edited or shown in the feature manager design tree.

I have an assembly which includes a mirrored part derived from another part in the assembly. I have created a split line with the text "ROD INSERTER" on the original part but then the split line gets copied to mirrored part. How can I avoid this? I only need the split line on the original part.
