Effective Design and Manufacture of Valve using SOLIDWORKS


  • Parametric 3D Modelling helps in maintaining the Design Intent of Valves.
  • Completely Associative (Part, Assembly & Drawing) which reduces the most of time and effort during design revisions.
  • Ease creation of Complex Shaped Valves with use of SOLIDWORKS Commands like Loft, Sweep, Boundary, Multi-body, Surface Tools, etc.,
  • Creation and managing of similar valve components with various sizes, geometries, and features can be done with no time.
  • In-built availability of Valve components which reduces design cycle time in assembling of Standard products
  • Wide range of Standard material database is available and custom made material can also be incorporated
  • Various attributes like Mass, Center of Gravity (C.O.G) can be evaluated based on the material property in a single click

  • Easy collaboration with customer legacy data with a editable feature history tree
  • Both internal and external Communication of CAD data becomes much easier through SolidWorks e-Drawings
 


  • Integrated Mold design and productivity tools which helps in creation of molds for Valve Components with ease of creating Parting lines, Interlocks, Tool Splitting’s etc.,
  • Insertion of Dimensions and Tolerances had become Automatic and User friendly with use of SOLIDWORKS Dimxpert.
  • Agile process of pre-analysis for mold like Geometry Analysis, Symmetry Analysis, Thickness Analysis, and Draft Analysis helps in seamless creation and import of CAD data.
  • Error free Assembly creation is possible with features like Interference Check, Hole Alignment, Clearance Check and Assembly Transparency.
  • Animation of exploding an assembly can be captured and saved in a video format and the same can added as a view during detailing
  • Manufacturing drawings can be generated automatically with PMI data
  • Various tables like Bill of Materials (B.O.M), Weld table, Revision Table can be generated automatically

Do More than Just Visualize with Assembly Visualization


Ever since its introduction in SOLIDWORKS 2010, Assembly Visualization has been a excellent tool to display components in an assembly based on different criteria using colors.

Assembly Visualization can be used as an interactive BOM in which you can see file name, quantity, mass, material, volume, density etc.,
  

²Add colors to visualize the model property values.


²You can add new columns to show other properties of the model.

Lets just add a new column to link SW-Material

 

²You can sort the assembly visualization based on the properties in different columns.

²Another great option available inside Assembly Visualization is we can directly apply materials to parts.



²Use the Rollback bar to show only necessary components in Assembly Visualization
²Other Tree options


²Starting from SOLIDWORKS 2018, you can directly access Performance Analysis option inside Assembly Visualization.
  

And sort based on Graphics Triangle, Open time, rebuild time.
  

²Another great option is that you can save this style. Instead of adding/editing the new column, you can load this style for future display of Assembly Visualization

²You can also save this as Excel, Text or PDF and publish this a Bill of Materials as Top-level, Parts only or Indented.


  With Assembly Visualization you can evaluate you assembly performance and sort by component properties and more.

Collaborative Design Solutions for Valve Industry through SOLIDWORKS

Introduction:
          According to Global Industrial Valve Market analysis, there was a huge potential growth for Indian Manufacturers set to reach Three Billion Dollars by 2023.
          Indian Market is a place where investors likely hit favourite shots. Design and Manufacture play a major part of any organization to attain best in quality and first in the Market. For error free Manufacturing, Design is the most significant thing. An Organization who has an individual Department of Design, they see tremendous growth compared to others.
          In that order today we are going to have a look how SOLIDWORKS and its Multi Product helps VALVE MANUFACTURERES to reach Market earlier with best Quality.

Objective:
          This presentation will address how VALVE MANUFACTURERS can bring their own ideas into live, methodology to improve product quality, effective strategies for product reliability and powerful streamline paths to become leaders in this competitive Global Market. Let’s go for it.
3D CAD Design - SOLIDWORKS
          Using of SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD, a designer can understand project concept and perform quick variations to come up with effective design. Since it is a parametric software, designer response very fast for any design changes.
          Design variants can present within a single environment so to avoid repeat designs and reduce time delay.
          Operating condition of Valve can view in a design stage itself so that any interference, collision can easily identify and avoid prototype, production cost and manufacturing error.
          Production drawing can generate based on Draft angle, surface area, corner edges of Valves. In case of set of Valve assembly is deigned, Bill of Materials [BOM] can generate automatically within a matter of seconds.

Manage whole set of DATA at finger tip
          In valve design industry, there always be a revise documents have for a schedule basis. To maintain, order, update, organize within a single environment SOLIDWORKS PDM will be a best tool.

Evaluate Product meets different Circumstances
          Designers can evaluate Valves designs whether it meets different load conditions that act in real time. Analyse variant flow strategies and design according to customer requirement.

Generate Drawing-less Manufacturing
          Replace 2D Drawings and prepare error-free drawings. Improve production by applying identical method called Drawing-less Manufacturing method. View Product Manufacturing Information in direct 3D Model and produce largely 40% of your daily results.

Generate Ballooning & FAI Reports within a Minutes
          Improve the Product Quality and reliability 35% of your traditional quality process. Reduce Inspection time and move to best results. On the whole, get fast and accurate reports using SOLIDWORKS Inspection.
