Hallo Pro/E-Gemeinde
nachdem das Topic "Radiales Mustern" soviel Interesse generiert
hat, ist mir in der ProE-KnowledgeBase noch der folgende Bei-
trag aufgefallen. Das Subject hört sich sehr interessant an,
ich habs aber noch nicht selbst ausprobiert. Und, tschuldigung,
falls das schon Stand der Technik sein sollte...
Gruss Erik
http://www.ptc.com/cs/tpi/106107.htm How To Pattern Any Component - Even Ones That Do Not Have A
Dimension To Use For Patterning Or Are Fixed In Place
Description
-----------------
Sometimes a pattern needs to be created for a component that was not or cannot
be placed with the necessary dimension to use for patterning. This technique
will allow any component to be patterned in any direction.
Alternate Technique
-----------------
See Resolution below.
Resolution
-----------------
The technique consists of adding a Move constraint onto a placed component, then
using the new dimension(s) to pattern the component.
The steps are as follows:
1) Create a Datum Coordinate System at the location of the dimension baseline.
Where this is located depends on whether the pattern has linear or angular
increments:
* Linear pattern increments: The coordinate system should be placed with one
of its axes (X, Y, or Z) pointing in the direction of the linear offset.
* Angular pattern increments: The coordinate system should be placed with one
of its axes aligned with the axis of rotation for the angular increment.
2) Add a Move constraint to the component to be pattern. Pick the following
commands while in the assembly: #Modify, #Mod Assem, #Move, select the
coordinate system from step #1, then select the component to be patterned. For
linear pattern increments pick #Translate, and for angular pattern increments
pick #Rotate, then pick the appropriate coordinate system axis. Enter a value of
zero (0.00) when prompted, since this component should not be moved. Pick
#Done Move, #Done when finished.
3)The component now has a dimension of zero (0.00) that can be selected
for patterning. Pick #Component, #Pattern, and select the component to
be patterned - a dimension of zero (0.00) should appear. Select this dimension
and enter the desired pattern increment. The component will now be patterned.
