    Check for perpendicularity

    Thanks all for the response... I was looking into more automated mechanism like using sensors (since this is a hand held tool). I thought of a concept using IR beams to measure distance. i will use 3 IR beams (since we need 3 points to establish a plane) to measure distance of the object from...

    Check for perpendicularity

    Hello All, I am looking for some kind of mechanism which helps me to know whether the power drill is normal(perpendicular) to the work surface. This should help the operator to know he is drilling correctly (normal to the surface). A slight deviation of 2 to 5 degrees is acceptable. Thanks Shashi

    General Geometry Errors

    Import diagnostics works fine for me too. Suggest to check your templates once. Are you using the default solidworks templates?

    Dimension leader attaches to geometric tolerance box instead of dimension

    Thanks Sbaugh.. found out the problem... i did not set the overall standard to ANSI... instead had set only the Hole callout to ANSI.. now it works fine..

    Best way to work with both Solidworks and Pro engineer on one Project

    use "Save As" command and save the file in "ProE/Creo(*.prt)" in solidworks. Try sending this file to the person working in ProE to work on. Not sure of the solution, but found that we can save as a Proe file in solidworks. hope this helps. Good luck. Shashi

    Dimension leader attaches to geometric tolerance box instead of dimension

    hi All, I face a weird problem in solidworks 2014 drawing with the geometric tolerance box attached to dimension. when i specify a geomtric tolerance and attach to a dimension, the arrow points to the geometric tolerance box instead of the dimension. does anybody face a similar problem?? any...

    Gear box/speed reducers design basics

    Thanks guys... i am trying to understand the requirements to deisgn a industrial gear box.. found out that the output torque determines the size of the biggest gear which inturn will guide on the size of the gearbox.. is this right??
