Creo Elements Direct Modeling Express 6.0 - program crashes

$
0
0

I have a problem with opening saved projects. I can normaly start the program and work with it, also save a new projekt.

But when I open a stored project, the program crashes. (See error message). At my Laptop I can this projekt open, it is o.k.

I have already repeatedly reinstalled the program, also older versions. The problem was always the same.

My OS is Windows 10 Home Edition 64bit, the same is on the Laptop.

Does anyone know, what may be the cause or has anyone even this problem?


How to show bend note in flat view of drawing.

Hello. I am new to Creo and Ive been creating flat patterns using a family table. The bend notes do not show up even though they are turned on in options under sheet metal/bend notes display settings/show bend notes. The tangent bend lines show up however. How do I get the bend notes to show up? Thanks

Looking for Companies that are actually using Creo Schematics P&IDs and 3D Pro Piping Routing

I'm looking for advice from companies that have got their Creo Schematics P&ID library up and running and have exported XML files over to Creo Pro Piping and routed 3D piping systems.

In my group we have the electrical side up and running full steam ahead, but some of the P&ID groups need help getting started.

 

We would like feedback if you have experience with Virtual Interconnect P&ID libraries.

 

I have investigated the sample P&ID library you get, but it has no datatables.

 

Thanks!

How to select a component in Creo Parametric Simulate and show only all of the dependent Simulate features?

$
0
0

Good Afternoon Everyone,

 

I have a component in a assembly where I want to find all of the Creo Simulate Contact Interfaces that reference this component.

From what I can tell, Reference viewer unable to display the Creo Simulate features that are dependent on a particular component.

Info by model doesn't show the info either nor does info simulate.

 

Anyone know of another way to get a list of simulate features that reference a component?

 

Thanks,

Don Anderson

incorrect von mises and max principal of simple lifting lug static analysis

$

Hi folks, im new here and im also new at using CREO Simulate, havent really gotten the grabs of this p-element stuff yet.

To the point: I'm performing a static analysis of a lifting lug which is affected by a force acting on a surface inside a hole, this surface models the contact surface between the hole and the lifting tool. The lifting lug is constrained by bolts in holes and i've also constrained it to only move planar for a specified surface  (see picture i attached).

I set the solver to MPA where i seartch for convergence of strain energy, von mises and maximal principal stress for the whole model. I set a convergence criteria to 7%.

The current mesh setup allows the solver to find a solution within the specified convergence criteria.. BUT in the "Run status report", in the last pass, it also stated that there are X-number of elements not converged..

 

ptc1.PNG

The result give me both von mises and max principal stresses that are WAY above the value it should be. The area of interest is the bend and the hole section, stresses at the bolt holes are not of interest. The model material is S55, ive set modulus to 190 000 MPa and poisson to 0.3.

 

Does anyone have a any tip or tricks to get more accurate stresses? I've also attached the .prt file so that you can try the simulation yourself.

Cheers

How come the "pushingforce" drops to zero at the peak of the snap?

$

Hello,

 

I don't seem to understand why the results are as shown in the attached picture. I'm performing a contact analysis in Creo 3.0 Simulate; the force increases as it should but the when the structure has moved down about 3mm the force drops to zero and then increases again.

 

How can I fix this problem?

 

Would it help to do a finer mesh in the area of contact?

 

Thanks.

License get lost when notebook disconnects from network

The case:

the user is in the middle of a Creo session, when he (spontaneously) disconnects his notebook and goes into a meeting.

What is the right behaviour to "save" his license, so he does not loose any work when getting back to work?

Any sugestions? Thanks.

Education licence & floating module

Hi all, I have an intern working with me and we purchased an educative with the EDU_COM_Convert floating module. Do you know if there's a way to configure Creo so this floating module is always loaded/active ?

 

I thought about using the reconfigure.exe to reconfigure the launching command, but this reconfigure.exe is not present in the educative version.

Assembly Grayed Out when Part Activated

When a part is activated (or a feature is edited) the rest of the assembly is made transparent gray.  Is there a way to keep the solid colored view.

 

I am trying to create a routed cable and this makes it hard to place points for the sweep to follow.

In my assembly I have hidden the Surface layers but sometimes the Surfaces turns visible anyway.

Is this a bug? If I Close the assy and erase not display and then open the file again the Surfaces are hidden.

Pull a surface

Hi all, i have created an N-sided patch, which for the most part i am happy with. I have a reference curve (in blue) which the surface does quite follow. This curve cannot be referenced as part of the patch feature. I can live with this, its close enough, but i was wondering if there is a way of dragging the surface to the curve. I looked at warp, using spine, but could not make it work. Any advice would be appreciated.

Actual tolerance different than default tolerance

$

I swear I've seen a solution to this before, but I can't seem to find it with the PTC site changes.

 

Using Creo 3, but have had this problem on Creo 2 and Wildfire 5.  I know it worked differently in Wildfire 4 and before, but we don't need to talk about things that worked right in old versions, were changed / "improved", and now ****.

 

The start part has the default 3-place tolerance set as +/- .005.  If the default_dec_places is 3, the tolerance of new features is +/- 0.0049999999

The start part has the default 2-place tolerance set as +/- .01.  If the default_dec_places is 2, the tolerance of new features is +/- 0.00999999978.

 

Besides being annoying, it's wrong.  How do I fix the start part?
