Sheet Metal Design using SolidWorks

Image
Sheet Metal is a metal formed by an industrial process into thin, flat pieces. It is one of the fundamental forms used in metalworking and it can be cut and bent into a variety of shapes. K- Factor is the ratio of location of the natural line to the material thickness. The K- Factor is used to calculate flat patterns because it is directly related to how much material is stretched during the bend. The three procedures commonly used in developing sheet metal patterns are parallel line, radial line, and triangular development In manufacturing industry, nesting refers to the process of laying out cutting patterns to minimize the raw material waste. SolidWorks Sheet Metal Costing helps to estimate material usage and costs of nested sheet metal parts, you can: Choose the sheet size Estimate the number of parts that can fit on a sheet Determine the number of sheets necessary Benefits of Using SolidWorks: Convert SOLIDWORKS or imported CAD models ...

Parryware Roca Bathroom Products Pvt. Ltd. Reducing Design Time and Errors using SolidWorks Solutions

Image
Parryware Roca’s global standing was further established when Ceramic World magazine ranked it the 10th best bathroom fixture manufacturer in the world in 2007. Parryware was the first and only bathroom product manufacturer in India named a “super brand.” “WITH THE AIM AND PASSION OF IMPROVING PEOPLE’S QUALITY OF LIFE, WE TRY TO OFFER MORE AND BETTER BATHROOM SOLUTIONS AND SOLIDWORKS HELPED US TO ACHIEVE OUR TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION.” Suresh Kumar M  Dy.Manager Using eDrawings,® the company was able to send 3D model information to the customer with no loss of data. The Symmetry Check tool helped Parryware to verify the symmetry of designed products. Benefits of photorealistic rendering The easy-to-use progressive rendering tools in SolidWorks let users render photorealistic scenes while allowing them to continue working on the same scene, unlike software that forces users to wait until scenes are comple...

New Technology from SolidWorks for Quality Inspection

Image
Quality Inspectors examine products and materials for defects or deviations from specifications. Quality inspectors mark tag or note problems. They may reject defective items outright, send them for repair, or fix minor problems themselves. If the product is acceptable, the inspector certifies it. Overall, Quality Inspector plays a key factor in delivering products faster and ensure error free production in an organization. Quality control inspectors typically do the following: • Read blueprints and specifications • Monitor operations to ensure that they meet production standards • Recommend adjustments to the assembly or production process • Inspect, test, or measure materials or products being produced • Measure products with rulers, calipers, gauges, or micrometers • Accept or reject finished items • Remove all products and materials that fail to meet specifications • Discuss inspection results with those responsible for products • Report inspection and test...

Confused With Wire/Cable Harnessing? - Harnessing Technology By SolidWorks Electrical

Image
SolidWorks Electrical is an intuitive and powerful tool which takes care of wire and cable harness design and create the flattened view with automatic updated BOM/Cut. Engineers need to put more thought into thinks like wire length, bending radius and routing. As wiring harness become increasingly complex and an important part of design we are in need of a powerful tool to ease our design process, this is where SolidWorks Electrical comes into play. Today in Automotive sector there are many more computers and Electronic Control Units used in vehicles today. These ECU are used to control the transmission, and other major devices of the vehicle and they have to be connected via wire harness in order for the system to work What is Wire Harness? The wire harness is compactly bundled wire which plays as the conduit for transmission of control and power signals acting as the “Central Nervous System of a vehicle”. When designing a new product, engineers focus mainly on f...

Mobile Phone Back Case Structural Simulation

Image
Mobile Phones nowadays have become so handy among people & the Design Innovations undergone by the phone companies are so pretty big. The back mobile case cover is mostly prone to failures as it is the most critical component for the real world applications. During the mid of 2015 year, some non standard tests were undergone on the back case products for failure mode analysis. Let's have a quick look on how SolidWorks Simulation offers the design principles in solving the real time problems. A general Static analysis is performed to verify the failure zone on the case covers. Since these tests require some physical bending & hardened strength of material, the linearization of the problem is the upmost priority for verification. To validate this product, firstly we need make some assumptions & simplification of the problem. The initial assumption made here is a person sitting on the back of the mobile phone weighing 70kgs. The model thickness (Shell thickness)...
