Hello,
We are currently using DELMIAWorks and are looking to get into VIN Generator within the program. The problem or question we have is we are unsure how the weights are calculated for the entire product we are making. For reference, we have a Luggage Rack that we created a BOM for, when you...
Hello everyone,
I am looking to automate our process here at my office to simplify the part creation process.
We use Weldments to create all of our tubular pieces in SOLIDWORKS but the process is absolutely abysmal for us and repetitive as we have only two CAD Engineers. We are currently...
Hello,
We have an 8.5x28 trailer with a gullwing door over the fenders. We are seeing problems with the door frame moving when the trailer is loaded and unloaded. We currently weld our trailers on a level table to ensure everything is square but we have been having this issue with multiple...
Hello All,
I'm looking to find the GVWR of a trailer I have. How would I calculate the GVWR of the trailer if I only have the aluminum tubing skeleton of the trailer available for simulation.
Hello Everyone,
I am a Design Engineer for my company that is very small and have been tasked with overseeing our PDM process and management. We have a designer who is doing "Save As" for drawings and then renaming it to the larger size model we are making drawings for. I am worried this is...
Hello,
I am currently working on a design for a Project. I have been tasked with building a trailer, I know the COG and the lengths to the tire/axle from hitch and rear. My problem is finding my axle placement, I don't have a tongue weight and am unable to figure out how to find the proper...
Hello everyone,
General discussion type of question to see what others are thinking, I have noticed that some companies when buying a trailer have multiple axle placements for for the same size trailer, for example a 8.5X26 from one company has a different placement than a 8.5x26 from another...
Hello again all!
Simple question I'm assuming, but I can't seem to get the information I'm looking for via the web so I thought I'd try here. Working on a project where I need to find the contact patch of castor wheels on a Mr. Big Tool Box. There are 8 castor wheels that are 7" x 2" in size...
Hello All,
I am just trying to understand the FBD of this winch design I am working on. Attached is a pretty rough sketch but overall I am attaching a winch via 4 hex bolts and 4 nuts to a inch thick piece of wood.
What would the forces be at the bolts themselves? I know the force direction...
Yo,
Hope everyone's week is going strong, I just had a question about BOM's.
In Solidworks, I have an assembly with around 10 configurations. Most of these configurations contain common and uncommon parts. I was wondering if any one could maybe direct me on how to create a table that contains...
Yo,
Back at y'all with another question that is probably more simple than I think... I'm currently working on a project to create some Aluminum trim and decided to use the Sheet Metal tool in SolidWorks as we use a Bending Machine here to get desired angles/hem's. A photo of the Side Profile...
Yo,
I'm currently running a simulation on a fully symmetric assembly, all other weak spots are symetric on each side except here. The force is acting at the front most point of the assembly and is in the center where the blue dot is. Just trying to figure out why it is so unsymmetrical...
Yo,
Reaching out to see if anyone here can help. I'm fairly new to Fusion 360 and have had prior experience in SOLIDWORKS Simulation but I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out if an action is possible. I'm currently creating a solid tube that will go into a receiver and another part, the blue...
Yo
I have an assembly I'm currently working on that includes subassembly's and parts. One of my subassemblies has a configuration inside it to change from a regular wall to an angled piece. When I change to this configuration inside the subassembly, I'd like to have some parts be suppressed...
