SOLIDWORKS Solutions for Quality /Inspection

Image
DIMXPERT Detail designs without errors, automatically dimension “manufacturing” features in 3D. Check the dimensional completeness of your design Graphically display dimensional status Display dimensions created in 3D automatically on the drawing Apply +/- or geometric dimension and tolerances Ease the Process of Creating manufacturing Dimensions TOLANALYST TolAnalyst uses the input from Dimxpert. Powerful tolerance analysis tool that automatically checks the effects of tolerances on parts and assemblies to ensure consistent fit of components and to verify tolerancing schemes before the product goes into production. The tolerance analysis can be rerun instantly if a dimensioning or tolerancing change is made, enabling you to get to an optimized tolerancing scheme more quickly. SIGMUNDWORKS Five analysis types including; Worst Case, RSS (Root Sum Square), Modified RSS, Process Centering RSS, and Monte Carlo Simulations are possible ...

COLLABRATIVE WORKING IN A MULTI-USER ENVIRONMENT

Image
Working in a multi-user environment is a challenging and error-prone task in an engineering sector. SOLIDWORKS has options and tools to perform tasks in a multi-user environment to a great extent in an easy manner. But it is important to setup a systematic multi-user environment. Setting a Multi-user Environment: The first step for a multi-user system is assigning defined tasks for each and every person & maintaining separate level for work flow. 1) Manager : Scheduling the task & Instructing the required changes 2) Supervisors / Leaders : Check the data and assigning & coordinating the work 3) Bottom level workers / Designers : Will perform the assigned work (Designing) File Storage: The most important task is to keep data files in a centralized server or system. It should contain only read-only access to avoid accidental changes in data files. It is difficult to work together if the files are stored in the local hard drives, especially in SOLIDWORKS. Hence p...

Design Optimization Using SOLIDWORKS Configuration Publisher

Image
Configuration Publisher provide a solution for design optimization. It is used to create custom Property Manager for selecting configurations of parts and assemblies. Configuration Publisher is placed in the property manager. Use the Property Manager when adding a component to an assembly in SOLIDWORKS or when downloading a model from 3D Content Central. To work with configuration Publisher, Microsoft Excel must be installed on our system. Configuration Publisher to control the ranges of features in the part to optimized automatically in the design table. The Configuration Publisher dialog box, you can able to create an interface for specifying configurations of parts and assemblies. It will use the interface of SOLIDWORKS and 3DContentCentral. 1. Right click the top of the feature manager design tree and select the Configuration Publisher as in Fig 1. 2. If you not create design table,The Configure Publisher to auto-create the design table.clic...
