Mechanism connection constraints

$
0
0

I am trying to constrain a piece that moves on a lead screw and is supported by two rods(image below). The piece should move linearly along the rods as the screw rotates. I am having an issue constraining the housing to the rods and screw as a mechanism. The best option seems to be the cylinder option, but I can only constrain it to one of the rods or screw and when I drag it, it rotates. Is there a better way to do this?

How can I regenerate a drawing

Hy

I modify a note by Jlink. But if the command is finished I see the old note.

If I regenerate the drawing manual I see the new note also. The regenerate of the drawing doesn't work in the command.

 

Have anyone an idea?

 

Thanks a lot.

This discussion is a test to help bring people from the defunct exploder over to the community.    Here is what the exploder people are going to be told to do.  Go to the community.  Log in or create an account then log in.  Pick the Creo drop down then the modeling tab.   link for community is below.

Then Follow Modeling  like this

Then respond to this post anyway you want for experimental purposes.

What would cause the session ID to be lost

$
0
0

Problem:

          In assembly relations a dimension session ID is lost/changed.

 

Information:

          The error given in the message line is "Line 819 assembly RAKE_BEAM: Symbol 'D0:14826' not found."

          The error given in the relation editor is "Invalid symbol 'D0:14826' found.

          For example D0:124=length:199  will change to  D0:14826=length:199 

          The part that the relation is referring to is suppressed by pro/program.

          I can fix this by opening and regenerating the suppressed part. Then when I go back to the assembly the relations are fine.

          This is not happening to any other suppressed parts within that same assembly.

 

 

What do think is going on here?


T-Code is Modal still outputs an M06

Hello,

I and setting up a post for a Leadwell V-60i and need to set the Tool as modal. When I set this option in the Tool Change Sequence output options to "T-code is modal" it will stop posting the T code but still posts an M06.

How can I set up my post not to post an M06 when the T code is modal?

Does any one have a post for this machine that they can share?

Sweep with "trajpar" parameter along a closed trajectory. What's wrong?

$
0
0

Hi, I am sure many of us have encountered this problem and may be there was already a lengthy discussion about it before. I hope to learn more about this issue from all of you.

 

Whenever creating a sweep feature along a closed contour, using "trajpar" parameter in its section will fail the feature most of the time. The questions are:

1. reasons of failure

2. does this happen also in Creo 3 or even Creo 4?

3. What really annoy me the most is it does not fail ALL the time, sometime it just works fine. I have an example here:

Capture.JPG

The first feature works well. The 2nd and 3rd features differ only in dimensional scheme and this made a huge difference ! I attached here Creo 2 file so that you can play with it and please share what you find/learn from it. Thanks in advance.

Sweep again - how to explain this?

I guess i am having bad day today . While working on the sweep problem posted earlier, I found another strange thing in sweep. The sweep feature (along half the circle this time) failed, but this is resolved by temporarily alter its relation, preview and then restore to its original equation and the problem gone !!

Anyone can help to explain this ? You can try it on the attached Creo file.

I have successfully created new Simple representation. But not able to add part models to it.

 

My codes are below

Dim newrepname as string="Fix"

 

Dim solid As IpfcSolid

 

Dim simRepItem As IpfcSimpRepItem

 

newsimRepInstrs= (New CCpfcCreateNewSimpRepInstructions).Create(newrepname)

 

newsimRep = solid.CreateSimpRep(newsimRepInstrs)

Now I want to add items to this simple representation

Same Creo file, just Use Rotation on or off. Seems to be in the .ncl somehow. Anyone else see this problem? Creo Parametric 2.0 Date Code M220.

Feels like lately it has been taking much longer to save assembly files.

Maybe I changed a config setting that might be effecting this.

How to constrain a cycloidal gear in CREO 2.0 Mechanism

7l_cyclo_drive_output_study.jpg7l_cycloid_drive_mechanism_input.jpg

Can someone tell me how to constrain the cycloidal gear above in CREO 2.0 Mechanism?  I've used the slot and pin constraints, and the gear stays within the bearings as it should when the input shaft is rotated.  But the gear rotates erratically, sometimes it moves much more than it should and sometimes doesn't.  The gear should "rotate" 51.43 degrees with each complete rotation of the input shaft.

Thank you.

Is it possible to edit the ribbon menu in ModelManager? I want to add a button to toggle the BOM module on and off. This way users can quickly turn it on to create a BOM and then turn it off to release the BOM license for others to use.

Design Automation of LCD Module ,How does it work?

A few months ago PTC's partners demonstrated the design automation system for the LCD Module.

For professional or non-professional LCD designers and even system designers, saving about 30% of the design time, it is really amazing!

I have 10 years of LCD Module design experience, the same work I have to spend 2 to 3 days, but the system took only about 5 seconds, and almost no mistakes.

 

How does this design automation work?
