Anyone got any comments on the user-friendliness of PDM Enterprise vs Autodesk Vault Professional in a mixed Solidworks/AutoCad drawing office? Anyone tried to use either on a Novell Netware network?
Hi
Any ideas on where to find allowable bearing stress for a greased 4340 (high-tensile) pin in a 4340 bush. Pin rotates under load. We would normally use 80-100 Mpa allowable for mild steel components but are there any published allowables for higher tensile components.
Thanks
I gather you Inventor guys handle configurations as separate iparts, iassy's etc to allow families of parts and tabulated drawings. How do you handle say an FEA configuration of an assembly? A sheetmetal configuration?

Hi
In the past (up to SW2008)I have really struggled with the Solidworks drawing interface to produce decent drawings quickly. Everything seems to be so non-intuitive and Microsofty. Just selecting and manipulating the view, annotation, part or underlying sketch you want is a mission, let alone...
Hi
Can anyone offer advice on the machining of lifting hooks from solid steel plate (instead of forging). Obviously, grain direction is not optimal but is it actually a terrible idea? (provided detailed fatigue analysis is carried out, the steel properties are well characterised, grain...

Hi
Any idea why the Manufacturing Proof Test force in EN818 & EN1667 is 2.5 x WLL, while in ISO, AS3775 and other national standards, the value is 2.0 x WLL
Thanks
