You can use template manufacturing models with pre-configured manufacturing items to speed up the creation of manufacturing models. Template Manufacturing Models • Pre-configure manufacturing items: – Operation – Coordinate Systems – Retract Positions – Fixtures – Parameters – Workcell – Tooling – NC Sequences • Default Templates • User-Defined Templates • Configuration …

You configure standard turning tools by specifying tool parameters. It is important to specify the correct tool parameters to obtain the desired tool configuration. Standard Tools • Tools configured by specifying tool parameters. • Available tool type control parameters: – Turning or drilling • Parameter values control resulting tool shapes in: – Length – …

It is important to understand how workpiece models are used in manufacturing assemblies. Workpieces represent unmachined stock material, for example: • Stock Billets • Castings Workpiece Features: • Enable machining simulation of workpiece. • As-machined versions. • No machining outside workpiece boundaries. • Workpiece display. Workpiece Options: • Create an …

A material removal feature can be generated following each NC step. The purpose of this feature is to reshape the workpiece so the part looks just as it will during the actual machining process at the completion of that NC step. Figure 1 – Model without a Material Removal Feature …

Creo Parametric enables you to check moving parts for interference with the static parts for each move you define. • Define the move to perform the  interference check on. • Specify the static part to check for interference with. • Interferences highlighted: – Curves – Points Figure 1 – Interference Curves Interference …

To save time, place user-defined features (UDFs) from your company’s UDF library into your model. • Open existing UDF (*.gph) • Select Placement references – Prompts can aid you • Edit Variable Dimensions and Annotations Elements • Options – Scaling – Dimension display – Redefine features on-the-fly • Adjustments – …

You can apply optional end conditions to the waterline circuit segment endpoints. • The following end conditions can be applied: – None – Blind – Thru – Thru w/Cbore Figure 2 – Thru w/Cbore Waterline End Condition Analyzing Waterline End Conditions Figure 1 – Blind Waterline End Condition Figure 3 …

The process of determining which individual closed islands of space should be included in the resultant mold volume is called classifying. • An island is a closed volume of space in the mold model. • Specify the islands to be included in the resultant volume. • Classifying islands enables you to create simpler manual …

You can split the workpiece by using a parting surface or mold volume to create the core and cavity volumes of the mold model. • Split the workpiece using the All Wrkpcs split option. • A new mold volume is created equal to the workpiece volume. – Reference model geometry subtracted. • The volume …

When working with surfaces, it is often necessary to edit and manipulate quilts to achieve your desired design intent. • Tools include: – Extend – Trim – Copy and Paste – Offset – Mirror – Merge Figure 2 – Trimming a Quilt Figure 1 – Extending a Surface to Plane using Geometry …
