Ive created an assembly consisting of
1 interchange group 'heads'
and 'handles' controlled by if/else statements
The handles are obviously designed to fit the heads! On some occassions the 'heads' change diameter, which means the 'handles' have to also adjust to that dimension.
Although i...
to create a helical datum curve you will need to create a datum from equations:
in cylindrical coordinates:
r=IR + t * (OR-IR)
theta=t*360*Rotations
z=A+(t*height)
ir= inner radius
or= outer radius
A=starting height off z plane
height= distance and direction can be +/-
egs cone:
r=3+t*7...
Many Thanks..... I got around it a different way in the end as my schedule was tight and i didnt have much time for experimentation!
But im going to go back to it now and test out your theories!
Many thanks for your time!
Also can you give me the basics of adding execute statements...
hi,
im creating an assembly based around pro prog.
I have 4 different prts, each created into 1 interchange group.
Although one one the 4 parts has also an interchange group.
How can tis be written in pro prog?
ill use a silly example....................
for image see...
ive created a datum curve of which i want to pattern around the edge of the solid protrusion.
Easy enough, direction 1: angle enter increment value
the only problem i want the datum curve to increae and decrease in length as it rotates around the solid protrusion...
i can get it to increase by...
Onlyadrafter...........
Could you give me a few details on adding family tables within pro prog?
My main assembly features one main component, which can be chosen out of 4 options.
For each of the 4 options i have pro prog working on them, therefore they are all interchangable?
But how do i...
ive created an arc, which i need the length to use in further relations.
So i have used analysis, measure, add feature.
At which it moves to the model tree.
But how can i USE this measurement in relations?
many thanks
Im working in prt. mode presently.
Imagine a solid protrusion(blue part in diagram), eg 70 length 15 dia with some patterned cuts around the edge (depth 5mm) in the top. In these cuts are positioned wires which extrude about 40mm(datum curves in diagram)
I want to be able to control these...
Im creating relations on my features, to gain full control of my model.
Of which i will hopefully transfer into pro/prog.
My problem is that i would like to add constraints to the relations:
eg
solid extrusion circle radius=5
cut in solid circle, radius from center 2.5 dia of cut =1
I want...
I am trying to create mathematical knots from equations in pro engineer.
Im creating them through, datum curves and points all created from equations. i realise i can create x,y,z points in cartesian coordinates but i have found no data to represent a knot yet.
I have found a site which...
i have a limited and basic knowledge and understanding of pro program can anyone suggest any links or sites. I want to get fully comprehensive with this part of pro engineer?
Many thanks
I have created an assembly using 2 sub assemblies 'head' and 'body', both parts contain pro program statements although for one of the 'body' part the statements were created in the assembly mode.
The statements for pro program created for the 'head' part were created within its part file...
