I'm used to drafting precision mechanical components with well defined tolerances, feature positions and use of locating pins for assembly etc. Basically CNC machined components that fit together nicely and where each individual part can be separated out nicely and can be drafted easily.
But...
For braiding machines of ropes or braiding over preforms, how is the initial yarn loaded and held before the braiding process takes place? Is there a yarn puller that you hook each individual yarn from each bobbin to the holder? Is this normally done manually or is there an automated way to load...
When programming 5 axis CAM, say using conventional 5 axis machines (X Y Z A B) with a trunion table. If A, B and spindle Z axis are not intersecting, is there normally correction for this in the g-code? Do most CAM assume the axis are intersecting?
Say you get FFT of some response (be it vibration or noise spectra). If the Q-factor is low and the system is noisy, its possible you can have some frequencies having higher or equal amplitude than at other frequencies which are not the actual resonance peak. In other words, the signal to noise...
Trying to understand the professional engineering field a little better. There are many fields of engineering. There are many countries with different regional and federal level rules. There are international issues also.
In general, for developed and western countries, is a professional...
Automation based companies are far and many. This ranges from CNC machinery, to articulated industrial robots, to custom automation systems.
Sometimes you see these companies offer some kind of full machine simulation that are either merely as a visual demonstration in a presentation or if...
Ive never tried NX before. In terms of user interface, controls, flow, how parts are modelled etc is the CAD arm of NX essentially solid edge? Or is it different?
