Abaqus Feb 19, 2024

Abaqus introduced a groundbreaking solution to overcome the limitations inherent to the traditional contact pair approach: General Contact. This highly sophisticated method for modeling contact and interaction problems is distinct from the contact pair method. By using powerful tracking algorithms, General Contact can efficiently enforce and simulate contact conditions, ensuring accurate simulation outcomes.

3DEXPERIENCE Design Feb 15, 2024

The year's largest SOLIDWORKS event has come to a close! What did you miss at 3DEXPERIENCE World 2024? Here's our recap of the notable announcements, highlights, and stories from this year's event in Dallas. We hope next year you'll join us in Houston, Texas for 3DEXPERIENCE World 2025.

3D Printing Feb 14, 2024

Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) is a 3D printing technology that utilizes fiber optic lasers to micro-weld fine metal powder to generate a solid metal part. In this article, see how we created a custom hat using 316 Stainless Steel on an XM200G Xact Metal 3D printer and a custom press die to aid in the process. This project was completed in five hours, including printing the parts and assembly.

 

PCB Design Feb 13, 2024

Electromechanical product development is about to get easier and faster than ever, thanks to the innovative strategic partnership between Cadence and Dassault Systèmes. These two global leaders in PCB and mechanical design software have been working closely together to integrate their best-in-class tools on the 3DEXPERIENCE product development platform.

CST Studio Suite Feb 09, 2024

SIMULIA CST Studio Suite is an advanced electromagnetic simulation software that offers a user-friendly interface and integrated solvers for High Frequency, Statics and Low Frequency, EDA and Electronics, EMC / EMI, Particle Dynamics, and Multi-Physics Thermal / FEA. This article highlights all the new enhancements now available in CST Studio Suite 2024.

 

3D Printing SLA Feb 06, 2024

Titanium Assistant software complements the operation of the Stratasys Neo® line of SL 3D printers. While not fundamentally required to operate a Neo, it is a companion program that I rely on as a daily user. It excels at workflow optimization and efficiency and allows any number of Neo's to be monitored remotely. Titanium Assistant empowers Neo operators to control three crucial aspects of the printing process from their local computer: file preparation, queue management, and machine management. 

 

In SOLIDWORKS, the Bill of Materials (BOM) serves as a central hub, providing vital information about an assembly's components and their quantities. But have you ever felt limited by its standard features? In this article, we cover the fundamentals of setting up BOM equations and show how equations work in the context of a BOM table. 

 

DraftSight Feb 02, 2024

The primary reason for creating drawings is to have a document that provides the most accurate communication of the design intent of a model or assembly to the fabricator. It must be clear and concise with the best and most precise documentation and annotations that convey the details for tolerances and procedure. This article explains how to use the  DraftSight Split Dimension feature for cleaning up dimension detailing.
