Nel disegno di carpenteria metallica quali software usi?

since we have a vote for "other" it would be nice to specify exactly which other software. to understand the alternatives to the mentioned software.

p.
I realized that this survey will close soon. Couldn't you leave it open for a few months?
 
I admit my astonishment to discover that half of the people operating in the industry use software to specific, rather oriented to mechanics.

to those who voted option number 8
mechanical cad (cree, solidworks, inventor, solid edge, catia, etc...)
I would like to ask: if they have chosen to use those software specially for carpentry; or they chose it because they do other, but it also comes useful in the case of carpentry.

Finally your "carpentry" projects have important mobile parts (i.e. conveyor belts, ovens, mobile scales)?

probably do more mechanical carpentry and sometimes have to model structures
 
pro engineer with its plug-in efx expert framework generator.
of course not in the architectural field but in the mechanical field (welded structures, plants etc.)
 
in my study we design everything, we do not put vetoes to the opportunities that arise. what motivates me is curiosity and the desire to touch new issues.
the sector that takes us more time is that of attractions for amusement park such as pendulums, roller coaster, panoramic wheels, flume rides, etc.... We really did all the sauces.
therefore our orientation is the mechanical carpentry.
I did some building carpentry structure because I had the opportunity and optimizing the work I was competitive.

Nice! I have known in the course of solidworks a gentleman who made attractions for amusement park for years, and drew hand(mostly) deciding to take solidworks, and when in the various lunches he talked about his work, with calculations and various dimensions, I was always fascinated... thinking about how many hours and the difficulty behind us create certain attractions.
 
However I use solidworks, in the field of carpentry, to make bases for calandrated robots with welded plates, or for bases in square profiles always for robots, or benches of support pieces and pliers, benches with plate above that moves a piston, for fences, and other small structures, nothing too complicated in short.
 
I saw some presentations illustrating the inventor's table.
In particular, I admired how easy it was to make 2d elaborates capable of updating by changing the 3d model.

have this ability also tekla, and advance?
I've been looking for some demonstration videos on the net, but I haven't found it.

mechanical cads (solid edge, inventor, solidworks, etc.) all have this capacity, i.e. that the changes you make to the 3d then automatically updates the 2d, be they individual models or assemblies.
I go to memory... solidworks seems to me to have the possibility to do the opposite, that is to change a quota on the 2d and to the opening of its 3d correspondent is updated.

mmm I with reverse solidworks as you say I never did, but I think you can do, if you import the sketch quotas at the table, which are read as "guide" odds also on the table.
 
I know that mechanical cads are "fig" from this point of view.

But I was wondering if tekla and advance know how to do it. You will understand how this can be an important discriminant.

one thing is to regenerate a 2d file every time, as it happens with prosteel. This implies, every time, to put us back on because it is never perfect, to add the annotations inserted as they are deleted, with risk of forgetting something.
another thing and a design that maintains its properties and automatically updates in modified parts by model.

probably if you're looking for information about this in the forum, I still think that since there is no risk of having to do it again after the changes, but maybe I'm wrong. . .

I saw it in Milan at the bi-mu fair in 2009 or 2010 on the Swax dealer stand while demoing to a person. I did not deepen, I only saw that they did it and explained the possibility of changing a 3d model also passing directly from the 2d, all here.

you can do by acting on the quotas imported from the model. When using them, you should put them on a layer to easily recognize them.

I wanted to do a note. the tables are updated parameterically but depending on the changes made it may be necessary to put the hands on the drawing to arrange quotas and annotations that may have been released.
of course it is not like regenerating views and giving it back.

advance steel confirms that after changing the model updates all 2d designs created (executive, prospective, particular, distinct, dxf and nc etc.). gives you the possibility to overwrite all the modified drawings or perform the necessary revisions with relative clouds in all objects that have undergone a change.
in this link you should find what you are looking forhttp://www.graitec.com/en/movielist.asp?productid=2
