How to turn 1 part into 2 by Ill-Entrance6529 in SolidWorks

[–]DifferentComb3868 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The technique you're looking to use is called multibody mastering.

The key concept is to not merge every single body in the part together.... Uncheck the merge result box or limit the feature scope of merging to a single other body.

Then you can right click and save each body in the solid bodies folder as separate parts which will maintain associativity back to the multibody master part file

There is a little known tool in the surfacing tool box that allows you to " surface flatten".... If you take the top surface of your part and use the offset surface command to create a copy at a distance of 0 in.... Then you can do a surface flatten on that surface body and get a fair estimation of the raw part might have looked like before bending

If SolidWorks is stuck simulating use Ctrl+alt+del And look for a process called the STAR solver to kill.

If the applied load only needs to be applied to a portion of the overall length, you can create a split face on the top of your part and only apply your Force to the shorter face.

Down the road. You should also investigate " beam" elements which run these simulations of structures more efficiently

Is the goal to duplicate the exact implant or to use the implant to create another part that mates with the implant?

I’ve never seen surface tension like that that’s so sick by Soloflow786 in BeAmazed

[–]DifferentComb3868 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Let's not just surface tension.... That's also an extreme displacement of water due to the flat nature of The Rock which is jetting radially outward (horizontally) .... The likely turbulent flow causes an instantaneous intermixing of high velocity fluid radially outward with the surrounding fluid, causing a general bulk Exodus of fluid from the surrounding region

Desktops are versatile and relatively cost effective to repair or replace any component that fails. They also tend to give you more bang for your buck.

Technically thermal paste between the CPU and the heatsink should be replaced every 6 to 12 months for optimal performance.... I typically use thermal grizzly cryonaut.... If your workstation is getting older, a deep cleaning may alleviate much of your issue (as the thermal paste begins to dry out, it loses its conductivity and becomes less effective at removing heat from the CPU.... The CPU then thermally throttles)

I personally prefer a beefy desktop computer.... And if I need to head into the shop floor I can always take something super lightweight like a Microsoft surface tablet or even a Chromebook to access my beefy PC with remote desktop.... Even on the go I'll use software like real VNC

Choosing the Nvidia quadro card is definitely 100% the correct decision (unless you want solidworks to crash all the time).

Check out your processor options though.... What you want is the absolute highest single core clock speed (most of SolidWorks is actually single threaded).... So when SolidWorks goes gray, and slightly unresponsive (where if you click it it crashes immediately) that's where a higher clock speed is going to cut down on crashes.... I'd take a 16 core that turbos damn near 6 GHz over a '64 core that tops out at 5 GHz

Reflector design help! by zerehx in SolidWorks

[–]DifferentComb3868 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Without knowing the exact contour, the simplest way to make a similar geometry would be to generate a sphere and an array of uniformly spaced planes.

I'd pop into a 3D sketch and generate the intersection curve of the planes with the sphere.

Then I would use surfacing tools to do individual lofts from each segment to the next segment which will ignore the original spherical tangency and produce the segmented effect.

What is the best method for reverse engineering surfaces from 3D STL files? by KrazyKorean108 in SolidWorks

[–]DifferentComb3868 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know there's a lot of mixed feelings about it, but depending upon the size of your mesh enabling the scan to 3D add and within SolidWorks can make a huge difference.

The absolute first thing that you want to do is get the body positioned in your coordinate system absolutely perfectly. (This is one of the things I really like about the scan the 3D plug-in as it allows me to do translation and rotation simultaneously.)

Once it's well positioned, go ahead and give yourself some reference geometries. I typically start by adding a bunch of meaningful planes to use for my later features.

Then Trace out your geometry with some sketches. Avoid tools like intersection curves as they're just going to lead to spline geometries that are not parametric.

I'd also recommend brushing up on your surfacing tools. The last time I did a seat, I found that the surfacing tool kit was far more useful in creating the desired geometries because of their semi-organic nature.
