Have a cylindrical cast feature with draft that I want to use as a primary datum axis.
My question is how to determine the axis..equalizing datum points at a basic location along the feature?
Thanks for the offer gearcutter..I'm aware of software that can create the gear data and then be imported into pro.
But was looking to create it in pro so it can be modified into other gear geometry.
Guess I'll post this on the PTC form
Thank all for the replies did learn somethings
I want to model (proe wildfire2) a small bevel gear and pinion accurately enough to make sla prototypes.
I have a summary sheet from Gleason for gear and pinion data.
If I define the involute, mirror it across the circ thickness can it be sweep along the root angle as a cut?
Also where along the...
The need I have for this is...a die cast part with molded in arm..(created as a proe asm. die and stamping) now want to machine it.What I did was create asm. and assemble the asm. this allows me to remove material and remains parametric.
one way
I have a die cast miter gear that gets bore and back face machinied.If I use the gear pitch cone as a datum for machining does this give me primary datum (cone axis) and secondary datum (apex point) for dimensioning from?
