I have a large number of objects that a customer sent me in a file exported from Solidworks (I believe) which I want to cut out on my CNC router. The objects behave very strangely: moving them changes the elevation, copying changes the elevation, exploding them and flattening change...
Weldment design strength is directly determined by the orientation and sizes of its members. Therefore, creating members that undergo loading and distribute stresses to the proper locations is a critical part of designing a cross-section profile. Not all weldment members are weight bearing, but if ...
If there is room on the page, it is good practice to include a 3D isometric view to help the machinist when manufacturing the part. These don’t need to be in the same alignment as the orthographic views but make sure that they are drawn from the correct corner for the orientation you...
Users can apply a variety of options for formatting text style, size and orientation using the text tool in SOLIDWORKS. The text property manager however, can allow you to customize even further. Normally, you can move text by dragging a point located in the lower left corner of the text o...
But if you print the texture on a VERTICAL face, your printer has a lot more lines to render the image, and those lines have to change a lot less, leading to a 'smoother' look: This difference is very noticeable in FDM, not so much in smoother technologies like Polyjet, P3/DLP or...
change membrane polarization and permeability of certain ion channels, modulating cascates of events at intracellular level1. However, the mechanisms of action of electrical stimulation are still not completely understood2,3. This is due, in part, to the fact that it is difficult to compare and ...
Besides tools in the lower left to change your 3D orientation (green box above), another useful set of tools is in the top right, to reset yourself to one of the standardTop,FrontorRightviews (very useful to make sure your texture is parallel to one of the model’s flat faces): ...
The mapping of CAD models can also be modified within the 3D Canvas window using a newer, interactive interface named3D Mapper.This interface provides a better way to map components or devices to their respective CAD models. A set of orientation handles helps you map CAD models to footprints ...
“The Handbook” will help to guide you on your own path as you look to leverage 3D printing and its potential to create your own breakthrough products, that hopefully will change the world. Every designer and engineer should keep it close as it paves your way into new manufacturing technol...
Open Solidworks CAD software andcreate new part file. Then select any one of the default from theFeaturemanager designtreelike Top, Front or right plane. Here I selected the “Right Plane” and make “NormalTo” using view orientation tool from The Solidworks Headsup toolbar. ...
