Hi,
We are working on creating specifications for hydraulic hoses, particularly in the offroad machine industry. I have found online basic dash id od charts. But, I have to specify the min max ID and min max OD for the hydraulic hoses.
I saw on one site, that had the nominal OD as a min and...
I have CREO 4.0.
I am doing surfacing. It seems there are some surfacing commands missing.
One of those surface commands I cannot find is the N-sided Patch. It's not in the ribbon anywhere. And, I can't find it when I do a search.
Any suggestions?

Is there a risk assessment template that aligns with what the EU is looking for, that I can use? If so, where can...
What are the pros and cons of using a metal rivnut in a FRP board in the ceiling?
I would use that rivnut to screw in a bracket which would hold up a duct.
I have a sheet metal with multiple flange made by the "Flat" function.
I got what I want, but at 45 degree.
The issue is I need it at 90 degrees. When I change it to 90 degrees it doesn't look the way I want it.
At 45 degrees, it looks like:
When I change it to 90 degrees, it looks...
Hi,
I was told that getting formal training was not available to me, at the moment. They believed I could learn how to use AnSys FEA on my own. I am thinking, "NOT!!!!!"
BUT, I'm giving it the old college try, anyways, to prove to them that it CANNOT be done on my own.
I have done simple FEA...

I am kind of new to Creo. And, I am trying to add some ribs inside a rectangular tank. I looked online and on YouTube, but their techniques don't seem to work. Maybe I'm missing a step.
Can someone give me a way that they create ribs inside a tank?
Thanks!
I am re-learning manufacturing engineering skills.
One of my latest task is to create a tooling/fixture which will have a Press Fit Tolerance for a pin and a hole.
The pin is 4.5" diameter.
So, what is the industry standard in making the hole that the pin should go in.
I looked at the...
We currently have no formal quality checks for welding.
I want to know the least complicated, yet, effective method of inspecting welds, based on your experience.
I was thinking about have a pictures of welds that will pass and fail.
And, empirically, use a radius gage to see if they...
Hi,
We do a lot of welding that is linear, a lot of "boxes" and truck beds.
I heard that there are welding "robots" that will weld linearly. I am looking to have an automatic welder that "walks" along a straight line on it's own.
We have a Bug O, and, you have to have constant supervision...
We are looking at converting a steel sheet metal assembly design to aluminum, in sheet metals.
So, what is the approximate strength ratio of Al-6061 to Galvannealed A60 Steel?
We are designing an oil tank for a lube skid. And, looking for ways to cut cost, the question is "how thin of a wall can we go to before the wall starts buckling"?
The tank is 55 gallons, 18" X 18" X 43". The current wall thickness is .29". And, it's made from LDPE.
Hi,
I'm looking for an excel spreadsheet to download, that someone created for their manufacturing company, that I can use as a basis for my Make Vs Buy Spreadsheet.
So, to explain what a Make Vs Buy Spreadsheet is, it's a spreadsheet that has a bunch of factors in a manufacturing environment...
We make a Class 8 rear dump trailer, full frame. A customer is having problems with the trailer dumping red clay. The trailer goes to 43 degrees, as designed. The cylinder has no issues going all the way up. The trailer has a HMW Liner. They are working in the South.
They pulled the...
We built a trailer. The system description says 1/2" thick walls. But, the raw material callout is 3/16". What's the best way to find out what thickness we actually used for the walls?
I am looking for help on creating a Free Body Diagram on the Drag Link of a dump trailer. This drag link assembly reacts to the frame, chassis and the dump body. I can go further in detail if someone can guide me. I appreciate any help.
Thanks,
