Today I recieved a note that my problem with the SolidWorks drafting standard is not designed to work with files from 2009 and eariler. This appears to have effected about 30,000 of my files and several thousand of a customers files.
It seams I should do a convoluted work around, submit another...
Today I consider the sldSTD a form of disease. For some reason I have never had my custom templates not use the existing standard I developed for 8 ½” X 11” drawings until SP3. I didn’t even know about the .SLDSTD template until today. My VAR has very little knowledge about this also.
I need to...
I would like to know if there is any information about case hardening steel either by carburizing or induction hardening changing the natural frequency of a steel bar.

I received three noticed of old SPR’s being fixed. One of these is for an Excel BOM problem that is over 2 years old.

Has anyone done a compressive yield strength test on 12L14 or other free machining steels?
We purchase a product made with free machining steel that seems to have a low compressive yield strength leading to premature product failure. The manufacture does not think this is the problem even...
If you use the Excel BOM feature SolidWorks is not planning to support it. I’ve has an SPR in for over 2 years. When I refused to continue maintenance until they provided a response they said replied it was not being supported. Hawkridge Systems advertises the Excel BOM as a top feature...
Can batteries with different chemistries (lead acid, NmH, and Lithium) but the same voltage be connected together for charging and discharging?

We need to upgrade to a longer lathe and would like some feedback.
Our current Victor S2260S is only fair quality. We need 120” centers and a 4” spindle hole and 20 to 30” swing and would like a better quality machine.

I would like someone to suggest the distance between vehicles to eliminate the affects of drafting so I can measure both rolling resistance and aerodynamic drag by towing a vehicle at different speeds (up to 70 mph) on flat ground.

Could someone explain how coefficient of drag and frontal area effect how much power is required to move a vehicle at a specific speed?
Where would I find frontal area and Coefficient of drag values for current vehicles especially larger cars and SUV’s?

The rules for the Automotive X Prize (http://auto.xprize.org/) will be posted soon.
They think it will take less than 18 month to finance, design, provide a detailed production cost analysis, build and test a 100 mpg 4 passenger car that meets all the safety and emission standards world wide...
We are doing more product design utilizing hydraulic cylinders to drive structures that must be light weight and robust. I have used Working Model and COSMOSMotion both, neither have a way to input acceleration rate, deceleration rate, maximum velocity and force into one element to simulate a...
We have had problems with VFD’s and spindle drives with our 240V Delta three phase. The new Baldor drive required Y three phase only. Searching only provided thread237-106308
Our incoming power has a wild leg that is 210V to ground.
Some systems work, Fanuc, and Haas, but not Allen Bradley, or...
