Keyshot to GrabCAD Print Quick Guide for Packaging 3D Printing

4 1 Intermediate
The world of packaging design is constantly evolving. It takes time, expertise and production capabilities at the final stage of creating your design’s prototype. Stratasys J series printers shorten this process, reduce your iterations and bring your design to life in a matter of hours. With vibrant colors, adjusted transparencies and completely new features in the world of 3D printing, you can now print accurate color for liquids, physical packaging, and even labels. This tutorial will take you step by step from your CAD file, to realistic render in Keyshot and finally, to an unbelievably realistic 3D print, printed by your J series printer.

Proper Method to Produce Lobster-back Duct Bends

3 1 Beginner
One type of industrial component I have been involved with the design and manufacture of is lobster-back bends. This type of duct bend is made up of segments cut from flat sheets or plates, rolled into cylindrical parts, then assembled. These can be light sheet-metal or manufactured from thick plate. This quick tutorial is a supplement to the one I produced an outline of a method I have used modeling this type of component using Alibre Design. As this supplement concerns producing parts ready for manufacture and applies to whatever software you have used, that is not important as this short tutorial is to outline turning your modeled bend into the flat profile ready to be made into the completed bend. In this modern world, the bend parts will be cut out using CNC laser, or CNC Plasma cutting machines. Sometimes we produce the nc programs ourselves or we are required to produce the correct files for the laser / plasma department to program and cut out. Making the program to cut out the parts starts normally from a 2D dxf file at a scale of 1 : 1. This is the first part of the process that has to be correct. If you produce this dxf incorrectly the finished parts will be useless. Producing this at the right scale, 1 : 1 is different with different 3D cad applications, other problems can be caused by you working in different drawing units. If you are not doing the program, talk to the person who is to make sure you produce the dxf as required. Having a large quantity of wrongly cut parts is not a good thing

Export Motion Study from SOLIDWORKS with Keyshot Plug-in

2 0 Intermediate
After a lot of request from my subscribers and friends, finally I have decided to make tutorials with voice over. . I hope you like it. In this tutorial, we'll learn how to transfer a motion study of SOLIDWORKS with Keyshot add-in. This tutorial will help many engineers, designers to create beautiful rendered animations. First of all, I have shown the assembly of adjustable wrench which I have already done in SOLIDWORKS. This assembly consists of four parts. 1) Fixed Jaw 2) Movable Jaw 3) Worm Screw 4) Pin I have attached their files for practice. Then we move towards motion study section. Here, I have shown animation of adjustable wrench in SOLIDWORKS. We use Keyshot plug-in and we have linked our file to Keyshot. It will pick this animation. Just go to SOLIDWORKS motion study, go to Keyshot add-in, a window will pop up, click yes to export entire animation. After exporting your animation in Keyshot, adjust the wrench assembly. Do some basic settings and go to animation tab. We have selected 12 FPS and 128 samples per frame. Click render and save the animation. Kindly use play pause technique for practice. I have attached files in the description for practice. Feel free to ask your queries in comment section. I will try to answer each and every question Insha Allah. Keep practicing as practice makes a man perfect. #solidworkskeyshot #plugin #cadable Assembly Files: https://grabcad.com/library/adjustabl...
