64.1

MAIN STEPS:
1. File -> Open -> model SPACE from
project Mechanical2 (picture 1).
2. File Save as New Document.
- Note: Change target to own project.

3. New Part -> Part.

- Input file name.
- Input archive datas.

4. Sketch guide curves: (picture 2).

- New sketch - 3d sketch.
- Line -> Polyline..
- Cursor locking (cursor symbol or u,i,o
manually).
- From pipes midpoint to pipes midpoint.
- Set distances.
- Add roundings.
- End sketching -> OK.
5. Return to main assembly -> OK.

6. Add pipes as Assembly Feature.

- Add Part - As Assembly Feature.
- Select -> Profile -> Thinwall_tub_spar ->
DIN_2395-SFS_5128-y, select size 40x3
(DIN_2395-Y040x3).
- Show guide curves (3 pieces) (picture
3).
7. Edit part dimension or location:
- Distance between tank and wall.
- Distance between heater and wall.
- Tank height.
- Note: To avoid rounding problems, use
original pipe directions.
8. Update guide curves -> Solve.

Saving Profile feature

65.1

MAIN STEPS:
Create part model with only one cross section. Guide
curves can help while locating.

1. New Part model.

2. New Sketch -> XY-plane.
Note1: XY-plane only.
Note2: Middle cross origin is also locating point.
Note3: Sketch profile cross section to correct position
(horizontal/vertical) (picture 1).
Note4: Sketch guide curves to same sketch.
Assembly feature must contain only one history step.
- Sketch geometry. Input constraints and formulas
(picture 2).
- Sketch guide curves.
- Test variation with help of Variate Model.
3. Function: Cross Section.
Note5: Handle is not needed, like usually. With help
of XY-plane and sketch origin, profile locates
correctly.
4. Edit dimension table (variate model).
- Insert rows with dimensions if necessarry.
- If necessarry, set "Variable values only from list",
means: free variating is not possible -> only
"standard" sizes can be used.
5. Save to library -> As Assembly Feature.
Locating:
- Create new folder if
necessarry /vxg4/shared/proflibrary/*.
- Input profile name.

- Cross section
normal to shown line.

Note6: Profiles name in partlist will be earlier given

file name or dimension tables name row (if given).

- F9 mirrors to
opposite side.
