export welded solidworks for modeling

[gabriele_904]

for business needs I have to recover "old" models of solidworks 2009 to bring them (and codify them) in onespace designer modeling 2007 of cocreate. and here are some problems.
the models in solidworks are made with the method of welded, I have models with 50-60 welded parts, with obviously equal pieces between them. saving the model in all possible ways (step, parasolid, etc.) and charging it in modeling does not recognize the equal parts, so I find myself with more or less 400-500 parts all untied among themselves . This does not happen for the assemblies. in fact exporting the assemblies recognizes the various pieces and group them. So I think it's a solidworks problem in weld management :frown:
Is there a way to export welds similar to axioms? or maybe it is possible to "transform" a welded in a set? Has anyone tried to do something like this yet?

Hi.

For what I know, as you have already done is export to step that is the best way to osd. I think what you want to do you can't do.

I'm afraid there's little to do, but did you try to ask your modeling dealer?

I'm sorry, but things are like I told you.

I tried, but as soon as he heard the word solidworks, he got his hair cleaned up:biggrin:
apart from the beats, he didn't find a solution, I hoped that someone had already faced this problem. hope doesn't cost anything:
Thanks anyway:finger:

And why?

I try to say mine. if you have a solidworks license you can with two - three clicks turn welded (multibody parts) into traditional assemblies. this operation is automated and should do one part for each group of bodies with identical volume. I use conditional because I never use this function, if I have a welded I hold it as such. Now I don't have the license available to try, if you care about it tomorrow morning I can try and let you know.

e perchè?

mine was simply a joke dictated by the personal preference I have for solidworks:tongue:. Unfortunately we were obliged to make the move to one space.

If you're interested in tomorrow morning I can try and let you know.

And you ask me, too: I found nothing about this. I would really appreciate it! :finger:

I asked you out of curiosity, he came to visit us a commercial before the merger with ptc and... Let's leave it alone.

Okay, I'll check in the morning and let you know something.

Hahaha, don't tell me that. He thinks I'm forced to pass.

Thank you, if I can turn the welds we've done in assemblies, that would be a great thing:

Then I tried. to turn the welded into a set you have to click the dx button on "elements list" and click save the bodies. the next menu is intuitive, you have to select all parts and the aid.
Unfortunately in the test I carried out I couldn't hold the same bodies with the same name of part but it creates different parts.

I tried to do as you say. In this way, he creates an axiom with the fixed parts. the painful note is that it does not recognize the equal parts. I also tried to rename the welded members but it does not allow me to put 2 equal names, much less to save the bodies with the same name.

If you think of anything else, I'm here:

actually it is incomprehensible as it recognizes the equal bodies and does not do one part for each type of body. the reason could be what happens in case of modification of the welded (with the changes that propagate to the weeds and parts) for which two equal profiles become different? If swx will make the parts throw the tables... It's a little ambiguous.
If something comes to mind, I'll let you know.

It's true, in case of a change, it would be trouble. In my case, however, I should only export the model once finished to make the "fines" on one space with its table.

I ask you another pleasure: I asked the cocreate moderator if he could move the discussion on solidworks, but he did not answer me (I was wrong to create it, mea culpa). I think it would be better in the solidworks section. Can you move it?!? I didn't want to create a double discussion... What do you say? If you can? ?

 

[re_solidworks]

I don't have permission to intervene outside my orticello, but I can ask to do so.

discussion moved, thank you very much:finger: .
and now we hope that some "phenomenon" of solidworks pull out some ideas!!! :biggrin:

 

[re_solidworks]

I think it'll be hard... the underlying reason why the equal bodies are not assimilated in a single part is caused by how solidworks saves the bodies. time ago I looked at us and each body saved us with the origin on the origin of the model, and because of this they turn out to be different even if equal.
In my opinion, at present, there is no solution, the only one would point out to the assistance and report it as malfunction or request for improvement.

 

[gabriele_904]

I think it'll be hard...

I think so. but hope is the last to die. :finger:

The thing I don't understand is how the "Mr. Solidworks" doesn't carry out a speech to develop and upgrade welds. I speak for my experience, for the type of product that we make welded allow a considerable reduction of time for the design. However we found many gaps in the field of table putting, balls, parts management, etc. (already made available to assistance, retailer, and so on). I think they do not exploit a potential of solidworks that would be deadly on the market (or exploit it very little).
