Thanks nonic. The first link doesn't quite look up my alley, but the second one looks pretty dead on!

Primary discahrge for the pump is 6" NPt, the flow meter is only 1" NPT. At the time of the test mass flow will be very limited (no more than 30 cfm) but during normal operation the mass flow could become much higher, the pump itself is 950 cfm under normal operating conditions. The 1" NPT is...

You guys are shouting the same litany that I have presented to my boss and that every vendor I've spoken to has presented to me. If they can close it, why can't they open it? Nevermind that whole torque issue. But I was asked to research a way to do what they want to do and see if it's possible...

I'm in the industrial vacuum industry in NW indiana. I've spoken with quite a few vendors on this subject, and they say that nobody makes anything like that in a size larger than .5" NPT. So any help in that direction would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not trying to hold the valve closed, I want it to "fail" open. What I'm trying to do is set something up to meet the follow terms: There is a flow meter setup in parallel with the main discharge of a vacuum pump. My client wants to, about once a month, walk up to the discharge, pull this...

Has anybody heard of a vendor that deals in manually operated, spring return open, 6" and 4" NPT valves for a low mass flow application?

I can see why Sneakers would think that. To read the SW website description of the CSWA would make you think that it is for students.

Thanks Ctopher. Doesn't sound too promising unfortunately.

Ok folks, I've been asked a question and I'm hoping for a real-world not advertising propaganda response. What is the advantage to my company to spend the money to get at least one of my designers certified as a SolidWorks certified Professional? It's easy to see the the benefits for the...

the one global Macro that fcsuper provided will keep the value when changing the property for custom properties, however I think it may be glitched for config specific data. But the tool does do what I want to do, thanks fcsuper.

These look like they'll work great, my only concern is whether or not I will lose the value of th property I'm changing. If I have: Document Number: XXXYY1 and I want to change it to Document Name: Will I keep the XXXYY1 ?

Is anybody aware of a relatively painless way to redefine custom properties in a part or assembly file without having to go into each individual file? Currently we are using a series of custom properties <Description1, Document number> and the like and I'd like to transfer our system over to...

The little pop up windows (Part needs updating, <file name> was not found, file not current version) that come up sometimes when you load a part have unique code numbers attached to them defining which ones they are within SW. They don't readily appear on the window that you see in the user...

Has anybody dealt with the error codes that define which errors are coming up on loading a part? I'm working with my VAR on implementing PDMWorks in my office and they have a pretty cool app that loads every SW file your company has and reports what little error screens come up. Unfortunately...

So if I'm reading that line right, when you try and use the convert option, if a view is in draft quality it will not show up in the hard copy that comes out of the printer?

Our IT guy just pushed out SP 3.0 this week and in plotting drawing I noticed that the option to convert draft to high quality has been grayed out. Has anybody else noticed this, or have they just changed things so that box is only selectable when there are draft quality views in the print?

I just went through the Enterprise/Workgroup question in purchasing. From what I've been told, Enterprise and Workgroup are not the same software. Workgroup is a toned down, slightly more restrictive than Enterprise.

Ok, here we go. That should work.

Let me get an image server set up real quick like you suggested and I'll link images.

I was using the same logic in the sketch I was creating, but if you enter a value greater than 180 SW subtracts 360 from it and shows the dimension as that lesser number. It's the angle I wanted, but now if I try to go in and change that dimension to a value less than 180 SW doesn't move the...
