For the past few months we've been struggling with an issue where the text disappears from the model tree in CATIA. We've been in contact with our CATIA support reps and so far they don't know what causes it and have never seen it happen before. I was wondering if anyone on here has seen the...
As far as general catalog creation that those appear to describe I've got a pretty good handle on that. I've created about 20 or 30 catalogs myself. However we have the Mold Tools package of CATIA, which allows the catalog files to put holes into the parts you select as intersections. I'm trying...
In order to save some time per design I'd like to set up some Mold Tooling catalogs that are specific to our practices and designs and cut down on hole creation/component placement time. Unfortunately, the default catalogs don't really fit our needs. I'm looking to do things like SHCS, drill...
I'm current engaging in the fun process of writing a DPD QM to comply with Boeing D6-51991, Spirit MAA1-10009-1, etc. I'm doing this for a start up company, and I'm trying to avoid excessive cost for this process while still ensuring complete compliance. Where this becomes a bit of an issue is...
I have as described in the last area of the post, they are still unable to open it correctly. We've now established that a parasolid file will come in correctly on their end but I am still a little confused at how both the step and NX 7.5 files wont come in correctly on their end when they work...
I'm having an issue sending STP files created from CATIA to a customer using NX 7.5, where they will get multiples of one component in the assembly and the others will not show. We also have NX 7.5 and I am able to pull up the files with no issue at all.
When they open the step file they...
Berkshire, I agree. It's going to take senior management buy
in to change things. I've now submitted my corrective actions and analysis that lead to them to senior management to see what will come of them. Half compliance isn't compliance as Mike said.
The problem with the current system is...
Our company is currently registered as AS9100 certified but as far as the engineering department goes we've been written up for the past 2 years for non compliance with the documentation side of things. Unfortunately, if we don't document it properly it doesn't seem to matter that we're...
I'll start by saying I'm a young engineer and have only been with my current company for 1.5 years or so full time. Almost a year of that time we have been without a full time Engineering Manager. The interim manager is a fellow engineer and he sent me to a meeting quite a while back that in...
