hopper development software

[cnc]

my first post and I hope I don't miss....:finger:
I work as a plasma cutting technician and until now I have developed in 2d with autocad or rhino. now that I have passed in the technical area I "tocca" also check the developments of the stilts of a company that sings half of it... most of the times I have to control them with rhino(in 3d autocad I am not able) but it is a bang in 3d build the walls, bend them and assemble them. . I ask you here: is there no software that manages the developments of the trams in a simple way? something parametric like those software that develop pipes with fittings etc.
In last I am also interested in tekla that we speak very well... but I don't think about developments in 3d...

You need a 3d parametric cad for mechanics. among these I would recommend you make demos of solid edge, solidworks, creo. the first, that I use it, is very powerful in the management of the sheets and does well in your case. These cads manage sheet metals in a simple and fast way and feasibility controls are real, in the sense that if you models a fold that turns out impossible to create the software you do not like development. you have total control over the model, manage the beading rays and the fold factor that can be a finite value or connected to a formula.

This is the road to development.
have development in one click has no price ...

I would write "tramogge":tongue: :finger:

I would write "tramogge":tongue: :finger:

I knew I'd do something wrong
Still solid edge to face seems quite challenging:frown:

 

[enri09]

if you are interested only the sheet metal processing module and have a minimum of familiarity with other cads, not so much.

Look, I didn't mean you wrong to write (I would never let myself):biggrin:

and that it is more "correct" to say hoppers...even if it is very frequent "tramoggie" (right or wrong that it is)

in what sense is it quite challenging? If you talk about the use I can tell you that after a day of course you are already operational to be able to work with us. the sheet part with a couple of days of thorough course you can do whatever you want. I did not in-depth in my work because I do not use them often and folded are built by third parties so for developments/folds/races etc. I limit myself to using default cad data.

once you learn the methodology of work the times of realization are reduced very much and the errors also.

I'm in full!

the fundamental thing is the methodology, and if you already work in the field and are familiar with the development of the sheets, it will not be difficult to "transfer" the methodology to the cad.

ok I try to download the trial version of solid edge...any tutorial around in Italian to start? Thank you.

Hello cnc

Do you only move or even support structures and any mechanical equipment?

 

[cnc]

I do carpentry in general... especially plants with hoppers, tanks, beams... project-dafter I see you use inventor, how are you???? I should do a course soon but I don't know if for carpentry it's a cool program. . .

 

[project-drafter]

Mechanical software are not suitable for carpentry the ideal is to use specific software like tekla.

inventor solidedge and others are excellent for mechanics but leaves the structures far away, you would risk going crazy.

 

[cnc]

tekla besides the cost is really another philosophy compared to inventor...with that having autocad we are already on the good road...I saw tekla in a company and it is too much for us... in the end the structures we build are elementary and I would use it more to develop hoppers and channels, folds and cuts

Hi.
at this point, if you do not make entire plants or complex plants, one sw is worth the other...the important thing is that it has the "sheet metal" module. :finger:

If you do not have to build a football stadium or in any case a highly complex structure, your tekla or other specific cad for these works is completely useless.

Moreover if at 90% use a software for mechanics and the remaining 10% I also need to make structures, whether solid edge, solidworks, creo or inventor go more than well. as already said and demonstrated on other threads with these mechanical software you can do and manage structures quietly. Of course, if I make complex structures for work from morning to evening 5 days a week, I will definitely evaluate a more suitable cad.

I came to your own conclusion

Hi.
if it is only simple hoppers, cone and virola to understand us, I do not see
the need to purchase a software license with related annual updates etc.
You could evaluate how to perform parametric routines in lisp.
They cost only once and don't think about it anymore.

:Mad: good morning;
I have just joined the forum, I have dificulty to create a hopper with a lower rectangular base and circular upper base.
Someone can help me thank you.

but vaccaboiamiserialadra , do you realize the terms absolutely dismissed with which you asked the question? make a hopper?
How do you want to know how to make it in the workshop? I see you make the welder so start cutting the plates secondpo the design, fold them then weld. follow the design and the hopper comes out drawing coem.
Do you want to draw it with cad and get its development? well then open the cad and inside the plate module do the loft between the two sections of arrival and departure appropriately open, setting the number of folds you need.

Of course you don't tell us, in case you fall using, trusting that we all possess the crystal bowl to shed light in the fog of posts like your real?
