I stumbled upon this method on my own quite a while ago, but I wish I would have found this and the rest of this channel about 7 years ago. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge!
Hello Sr. tanks for share again so valuable info and i do have a request for you : a video about how to do a forging and rules for draft angles , if possible of course. best wishes for you.
Thank you for the question, I have been putting some material together for industry standards and best practices for DFM. That will go live soon but it will be behind a pay wall.
Hi Sir, quiet interesting as it arrives in time to answer some of my questions related to casting projects that i should nearly be able to do in my workshop. So i presume you mostly do the same under NX with the WAVE Link feature, don't you ? I've seen a couple of times there was a common practice to use a PLM to manage family parts but I don't use any of them as i never needed to create family parts yet. I've checked many many tutorials about WAVE linking, and apart from the feature presentation there isn't much informative demonstrations about its right way to use. To resume there is a big lack of methodology on most tutorials i've found about it or at least "do & don't". Actually i limit my use of the feature to reference some sketches only but i feel like missing the _BIG_ thing behind. If you Sir could adress this with your teaching talent, you would be more than welcomed :) PS : that's cool to see you :)
PSbis : another way i just found on Siemens forum is to start from the design body and using synchronous technology to remove machined features like holes, then add some extra thickness to create the final stock body.
How is this? th-cam.com/video/i7Z-Y81h0-g/w-d-xo.html I will do a video soon on the Synchronous method. I prefer this method because there is no guessing what the casting will look like.
class A surfacing Oh, cool, you just did it ! ^^ . Indeed, i think the ST is a simpler way to go, keeping the design for manufacturing apart from the initial steps. For those reading us here, i was talking about this article from Siemens community forum : community.plm.automation.siemens.com/t5/News-NX-Manufacturing/Create-Stock-Body-from-Design-Body/ba-p/22889
Okto Putsch Just watched the video. It is not bad but I would have done it a little different. After deleting the holes I would have deleted some of the fillets a well then I would have used 'Offset Face'. That way you can just select all the faces at once to create the additional offset geometry. When I get a chance I will toss out a demo. Thanks for posting.
class A surfacing Indeed, it would requires less operations and would be closer to a real casting. (btw, do some similar direct modeling features exist on Catia ?)

I would go to family part to do that. One part is the casting one another is the machined part. Good video.

class A surfacing sure let me know I'm in.

Could you make some videos on catia modeling on tuff casting drawings plz.
just right click the body then paste in the new cat part (paste special as result with link) instead of making a publication
awesome video, as always,
very informative
Thanks.
