Saving your Fusion 360 design in your local storage

Hi @https://grabcad.com/cyrhuz.sortijas.bocar-1, You've mentioned earlier that your license is about to expire. The good news is it will prompt you options of renewing your educational license. I figured that you asked about these because you're worried that your precious thesis file that you put in so much effort will be lost. Luckily all design files from f360 is saved in the cloud (internet connection required). So there's pretty much nothing to worry about. Anyhow, here's a quick tutorial on how to save your f360 design file on your local storage as a safety precaution.

diverse shape translation to JT or STP

Have found a way to import / translate easy shape files like 3ds, wrl, skp, stl, ifc and so on into JT or STP. The shape files can have texture or not. My interest was how to get the shape files with texture translated to JT. For this, I use PCon Planner and save as 3DS. After this, import it into MeshLab (single texture file / no layer) and save it as WRL (VRML 2). This is than easy to import into Teamcenter Livecyle Visualisation (TCVis) and save as JT. If you like to have more imported WRL/JT files into TCvis (JT2Go) please rename the texture or the view results in TCVis (JT2Go) are bad, looks like unplaced textures. If you like to export files with not a texture another way is to use. The fast one with no colours is to save as stl and import it into your volume modeller. The longer way is here to import it into PCon after this save as Skp (Sketchup) and now is to use Automapki (~40 $ or € / year sorry no freeware I have found) and save as STP file. The result you can now import into a volume modeller and use it there or (and) save it as JT and many other files too. Hope you like this tutorial a bit. If you have any questions please let me know.

We can do an assembly drawing with a Bill of Material explaining to the manufacturer important info about each part. Also, we can number the parts with balloons, so that it can be easy to find and identify them. It will be explained all the necessary steps in Assembly Design and Drafting module.

In this tutorial I show you how to translate your geometries with an axis-to-axis method and then replace your geometrical elements. I showed also how to use a parameters for length between elements. For example I used geos of linear bearings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJqjJJar5J8&t=399s

The product tree structure can be seen directly in the web browser using ENOVIA 3DEXPERIENCE. The application has the ability to visualize also the data in a separate window and to export the structure in a CSV file. If you need a small adjustment, you can create also a macro like in the video to see separate the level like in a CATIA tree. Images from IAR80 project.

Creo Parametric. Адаптивная пружина сжатия (Часть 1). Flexible Compression Spring.

Это видео, а также вторую часть, заключительную, смотрите на моем канале YouTube^ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9fDxJ-FN2hPADXeyca7dyg Адаптивная пружина позволяет использовать ее в качестве гибкого компонента в сборке, что дает возможность добавлять компонент в сборку много раз с разными размерами в зависимости от места установки. Создание адаптивной пружины на растяжение можно посмотреть на этом же канале: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MqKQuqpMF8&t=1s An adaptive spring allows it to be used as a flexible component in an assembly, which makes it possible to add a component to an assembly many times with different sizes depending on the installation location.

Insert Bill of Material into a Drawing in Solidworks| Custom Properties with Bill of Material | SW BOM

Ibrahim Omer

In this tutorial, we will learn how to insert Bill of Materials (BOM) into a drawing in Solidworks. I am using an example of a piston assembly consisting of four parts. For the sake of simplicity I am only using four parts. These four parts are: a) Connecting Rod b) Crankshaft c) Gudgeon Pin d) Piston In the first part, we will generate BOM and in the 2nd part we will link our parts with BOM using custom properties. The advantage of using this in BOM is, it is parametric. If I change a material of say gudgeon pin, the material in BOM will also change. I have shown this in the last part of the video. I have also covered how to apply balloon in solidworks drawing. How to edit drawing title etc. and much more. #billofmaterialsolidworks #creatinglinkbetweenpartanddrawingsolidworks #solidworkscustomproperties #CADable #solidworksbillofmaterialtutorial For Files: https://grabcad.com/library/automobile-engine-7 Kindly Subscribe our Channel for more Videos and Projects in SOLIDWORKS, Keyshot, AutoCAD etc.
