Hello everyone,
I moved to a new company recently, and the software of choice here is Creo 2.0. In my previous job I designed using the skeleton methodology and wanted use it in Creo as well. However, our licenses are restricted and we do not have the skeleton parts. What is the best way to implement this methodology without those skeleton models?
I am used to Catia, where I created a part (the SKE) with all the geometrical elements and parameters I needed. Those elements would then be copied and glued into the parts. How can I implement that philosophy? (it does not have to be the exact same procedures) My first approaches:
- Create the parameters and the geometrical elements in the very same assembly (that could not be done in Catia) and design the parts in context using those geometrical elements as references for the parts directly;
- Create the parameters and the geometrical elements in a separate part instead (which would be the SKE);
- Using any of the two previous approaches, but then creating geometrical elements in the parts, coincidents to the ones in the SKE and draw the parts using their own geometrical elements as references;
- Create only the parameters in the assemblies, and create geometrical elements in the parts, using the parameters for that. The parts would then be drawn using only those elements.
My goal is to create a robust and well organized model, and I am rather new to Creo.
Cheers!
