    Thermofromed tray design in SW

    Dan, Thanks for your try, ..yes, that's the idea and as you said it should be more detailed afterwards, I will fiddle around with it to see if can get the final drawing. Thanks for your interest and help, appreciate it,

    Thermofromed tray design in SW

    MadMango- Thanks for your comment and the sample, ..no, i dont care about the tooling/die nor the way the manufacturer is going to make the tray, but my point is since I already created this negative drawing it is more convenient to continue on using the indent(or similar) feature rather than...

    Thermofromed tray design in SW

    sorry, i should have mentioned it before, this is the negative part (or assuming the die part of thermoforming)of the tray which its design is my ultimate goal. and yes, we are planing to put different/many products in this one tray afterward, it has different compartment for many...

    Thermofromed tray design in SW

    ..for a more complex tray(containing many products)do you still think that would work? if so then probably I'll have to start from the beginning. I already created the dummy of my products(going for the indent method) but at the and I am stuck in indenting the dummy block. It keeps giving me...

    Thermofromed tray design in SW

    Hello there, Regarding my question -creating a thermoformed tray for few products- i searched the forum and found some one had a suggestion as follows, I was wondering if this is refereed to the same approach as creating a dummy block for the products and then using the indenting tool or some...

    Indent

    Hello all, Following my previous threads, I created a dummy(like a male die) to make a tray( with a certain thickness)using 'indent' function. Trying indent function as an ex some where else it does work, but in this specific geometry it doesnt, ..I assume it's because of sophistication of the...

    Sketch Plane to be extruded

    JMirisola and others, 1) Thanks for your reply 2) I was so busy that didnt get the chance to work on this drawing till this week, I tried your hints but no success yet, ..Can you please explain more about "utilize the 'sketch contours' box in the extrude dialog" on this thread? Thanks again,

    Tapering-different barbs

    I still didnt get the chance to try the hints I got in my previous thread, ..but, there is a new question if you have time: I need to create a cylindrical shape, let's say a pipe, which is tapered in some specific segments and differently as there are few decremental barbs along the pipe. I...

    Sketch Plane to be extruded

    I have a 2D sketch plane containing bunch of closed contours each has to be boss extruded separately because of different depths. If I select a closed contour at the beginning and boss-extrude it, i will lose the rest of the 2D drawing. And if I extrude a plane on which the contours are located...

    Indent Function

    Thanks for your help, The Gabi's video and the help file were amazing, I did insert the object(tool body) but couldn't define the surface(target body)passing through the body...?

    Indent Function

    CorBlimeyLimey, No, I haven't made the 'dummies' yet. At this point I was planing to try a very basic format of a simple plate and a cylindrical object to see/learn how to indent the plate. After, I will go ahead for making the sophisticated dummy/dummies. Are they both(the plate and the...

    Indent Function

    Reviewing the SW help and online stuff, unfortunately I couldnt find any practical tutorials about how to do/perform the 'indent function' as some fellows suggested for my project. My project is about making a PVC tray with a certain thickness having different compartments, depths, and shapes...

    Importing file from AutoCAD

    Thank you all, good points, The point is the software I'm working on its 'shell' feature is dis-active, I'll have to find a way. Also, if you look at the side view of the finished tray its bottom part/surface has the elevation of 0.00 and its highest part is 1.00(in)from the bottom surface...

    Importing file from AutoCAD

    Thanks Steve, That worked out! one more question if you have time, this drawing is about a 'tray'(where some components/items are supposed be placed in this tray after being manufactured). Now I have the 2D drawing of this tray imported to SW and I need to make it 3D in different depths for...

    Importing file from AutoCAD

    I have been trying to import a file from AutoCAD to SW, the only way this is done is the "drawing" format in SW and not the "part" file or format. This, I can work on 2D as drawing in SW but cannot exit to the 3D environment which is my ultimate goal, making a 3D drawing(or part) in SW from a 2D...

    Flow Simulation-Inlet Error

    And here are a couple of things: Thank you for your try and hints. I think the package (SW) I have does not carry the flow simulation or FloWorks feature, I am only using FlowXpress here which is unfortunately very basic, ..probably this feature did not install while setting the software or...
