    Circuit to make large voltage drop with small resistance change?

    Hi, I am trying to make a liquid metal level sensor for our lab. There as the liquid metal is 700C most liquid metal sensors will not work. Due to the nature of the installation remote level sensors such as laser, ultrasound etc are not suitable either. I would like to use some high resistance...

    Hi, I have been sent a step file and want to use the inverse of its complex surface form in my catia model in order to design some tooling. To do this I would like to be able to use the Boolean remove function. I can do this to remove a part from a second part, but when the part to be removed is...

    Why do Constrained parts move when using remove feature

    Hi, I am using CATIA V5 R20. I have a die assembly which is fully constrained. I want to create a model of the cavity. I have a seperate part (cavity volume) which overlaps the die structure and I am using the remove feature to generate the internal cavity geometry. Working at the...

    Saving assembled parts on same coordinate system

    Hi, I have been given 20 CATIA part files. I have created a CATIA product with them all correctly aligned using the constraints feature. It is a casting die, so it is important that the surfaces of each part qare correctly aligned with one another. I would like to export each part as an .STL...
