I have been handed a project that is outside my comfort zone. A 3-phase 2hp motor that drives a conveyor stops and starts frequently to control product flow. Each time the motor starts the amp draw spikes to approximately 6 x FLA for say 1/2 second. It then levels out to around 1/2 FLA for...

Thanks y'all for the good info.

In SW2007 is there a way to save a model back to SW2005 format?

Can anyone tell me if magnetic power is additive or something else? If I have a flat magnetic sheet and I add a second sheet does the magnetic attraction to surrounding objects double?

Can anyone tell me where to find the standard acceptable TIR tolerance for TG&P shafting?

No errors are reported. It just doesn't work. The Debug.Print retuens a flase statement so I know that the SavePointsToFile command isn't working. The name of the help page is TablePatternFeatureData.

Using the example from the HELP file for TablePatternFeatureData I added a couple lines: retval = swTableFeatData.SavePointsToFile("C:\Stuff.SLDTAB") Debug.Print "retval = " & retval swTableFeatData.PointArray = Array(0.37445, 0.0254, 0.37445, 0.15006, 0.37445, 0.27472, 0.37445...

I hope someone can help me. I am trying to use TablePatternFeatureData and can't seem to get the sintax to work. I want to use PointArray or LoadPointsFromFile, but neither will work even if a copy the code from the SolidWorks help file.

I am new to Pro/Mechanica and I have a question that may be basic. Is there a way to automate repetative tasks such as running a sensitivity study. If I'm running a structural analysis of a wheel I want to run a basic loading six times each at 15 degree increments without baby-sitting the PC...

My company is loking at getting some small tanks stamped out of SS. Our primary choices are 304L or 316NL. As I understand it, 304 is fairly springy and requires a lot of extra attention. 321 handles very similarly to mild steel, but is more difficult to obtain and also conciderably more...

I am working through the bearing life expectancy calcs for the bearings in the wheels of a motorcycle. The standard L10 calcs are straight forward enough. However, I'm interested if anyone has any tire/wheel impact capacity calculations or specs that I can use. Any insights or assistance would...

I have been tasked with developing an analysis of the needs of our engineering department. Positions, talents, additional training or personnel. Does anyone have a good template or instructions for such an analysis? I don't want to inadvertantly skip something. Thanks in advance. Pat

Remember one very important thing. Half of being smart is knowing what you're dumb at. If you don't know the answer, you should at least know where ot find the answer. NEVER fake it. They will know for sure and they will not hire someone that does not have integrity. A thought from an...

The type head dictates the size of hex socket and therefore the maximum torqus that can be imparted on a fastener. For instance, a 1/4" SHCS has a 3/16" hex while a 1/4" flat head has only a 9/64" hex. The difference in hex size would determine the maximum torque that can be conveyed through...

Does anyone know where I can find a chart that shows fastener toqueing capacity based on the type of head (i.e. SHCS, Flat, button, Hex, etc.)? Any help would be appreciated. Pat

Thanks

Does anyone know how to open a specific drawing with VBA? I have a VBA program in Excel that can open AutoCAD 2005, but I can't find the proper command and syntax to open a specific drawing. Everything works fine if I manually open the drawing and then run the macro, but I need it to be fully...
