bb007, Why are you dropping ST?

The default seems perferctly logical to me. It's just as if the ball was the object modeled, Pull it toward you and in comes closer push it away and it gets farther away, twist the ball CW the model rotates CW.

I'm having the same error ( SW cannot obtain required memory ) on some of my larger assemblies. Unfortunately PMcGowan didn't reply with assembly stats so I can't really compare his situation to mine. In my opinion the assemblies I'm talking about aren't really that large. ~5000 parts, ~500...

In your subsequent post you said: " It is not possible to work around this limitation, I've tried many different ways." My way is the only way I've found using SW2003 which is where I'm stuck at the moment. It's really just a matter of visual representation anyway. If I'm making a barrel...

Timelord, I was only trying to share with you a technique to get over a modeling problem that you by your own admission could not crack. I spent maybe 20 minutes on the parts and didn't bother to work out all the details or even define the sketches involved. There's 20 minutes of my life...

Here you go folks: http://www.mooload.com/file.php?file=files/1130515613/track cam.zip Thanks for the FAQ CorBlimeyLimey

The only way I have come up with to model a track cam is to do it with sheet metal. It is a bit of a hack but it produces quite good results. Basically you model a sheet metal tube, unfold it, cut the cam curve out of it and then refold it back into a tube. You can then extrude a cylinder...

Kevin, Sounds like you may be the resident expert on Smarteam. Since your implementation what have been your experiences regarding software updates, i.e. ST keeping up with the latest SW releases. It seems to me that ST lags behind SW by a few releases. We "completed" our implementation to...

Thanks Scott... You Da MAN!!!

Anybody know how I can get SW to generate a spline curve from an excell table of XY coordinates. I've done a motion analysis of a mechanism with COSMOS Motion and generated a trace path which I want to use in a SW sketch. Thanks Tom

I don't understand what you mean by "I am using a shell model". I just made a part in SWX and did a shell to hollow it out and it had no problem making an FEA study or meshing it.

Thanks for the replies, I have a good deal of experience with SWX and some with COSMOS Works and I find both programs pretty intuitive. COSMOS Motion I find anything but! I've been beating the crap out of this thing for three days and am just finally getting some usable simulations. The help...

Does anyone here use COSMOS Motion? The search function turned up nothing. Also after asking around about training etc. I get the impression that the program is the red headed step child of the product line. Very little training available.

Use a cammate. Just right click the surface of the cam and &quot;Select Tangency&quot; this will select all the faces of the cam provided that they are tangent. Next <ctrl> select the face of the cam follower and open the mate menu. The only option available to you should be Tangent. After...
