Hello,
Edit: I know thesis posts are forbidden, but I think it is not a typical "help me with my thesis" post. Please consider it as an experience exchange between engineers in mechanical field.
I am currently working on my PhD thesis which is concerned about the influence of the bending process...
Hello,
I've started PhD studies recently in Mechanical Engineering. The topic is highly connected with FEA (Ansys) and some Matlab. And I work in CAD on daily basis (Solidworks) so I'd like to upgrade my PC. I'm wondering which CPU should I take. Currently I'm running i7-6700K 4C/8T, but it's...

Hello all,
I have to model such an element as shown on photo.
Nowadays we simply get laser cuted flat part and our locksmiths twist it manually, but we are increasing production volume and I would like to order it from supplier. To do so I need proper model and drawing.
I've tried with sheet...
Hi everyone,
I'm modeling a tubular frame of three-wheeled vechicle. I have a welded prototype and I've already measured and put all important points in the model and now I would like to add new part to the model which are bent tubes which will fit the rest of parts.
I wanted to use 3D sketch...
Hello everyone,
I am about to reverse engineer one complex tubular structure and everything I have is CNC bender coordinates in LRA (Lenght, Rotation, Angle) format and Center Line Radius. I need to convert it to XYZ to draw a centerline in Solidworks, because I need to have a 3D model.
Is there...
Hello,
I work as a designer in an automotive company. Now we are changing our production quality and organization from, let's say, garage level to industrial level. We have recently established cooperation with another automotive company, with automotive grade quality level. Now we need to...
