I don't get asked this but it is a very powerful tool and will make your life a lot easier. This also applies to other repetitive parts, not just LEGO bricks, and can be applied with the exact same methods.

Designing Approximate Spur Gear in CATIA V5 (Method 2 of 4: Design Table from MS Excel)

William Harbin
in Modeling
2 0 Intermediate
This BND TechSource video shows how to create a “template” part for an Approximate Spur Gear. The difference is; this template is controlled via an MS Excel spreadsheet. This part may be modified by simply changing the parameters of any/all of the following four formulae on the spreadsheet: z - number of teeth // real parameter [z = input] Rpa - Ref Pressure Angle // angle parameter [Rpa = input] m - module // length parameter [m = input] a – center to center distance [a = input] Next we will look at using Import Parameters (from .xls(x) or.txt file) to feed the parameter data and update the Spur Gear. https://bndtechsource.wixsite.com/home Excel Design Table: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cqqmNE9dxuM0XimnIWZSYKZfxsS0zwhj/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=114849995441101610372&rtpof=true&sd=true

How to Copy-Paste parameters from one part to another in Pro-E?

It doesn't the parameters if there is a parameter which has a restriction. I've deselected those parameters and copy and paste the rest into the part. You will have to create the restricted parameters yourself.

CATIA V5 Document Template

Document Templates are very powerful tools that can ensure design standards are replicated as intended by an expert engineer. Further, they are time savers. Templates can morph on instantiation based on inputs and context of the new product design. In terms of Product Lifecycle management, Product Templates can be instantiated as New Components. Product Templates can represent a single component or an assembly of components. In addition, multi discipline models such as NC Toolpaths, Drawings, FEA Analysis models can be associated and up along with the morphed result of an instantiated templates. Product Templates are extremely powerful tools! Contact me for more information: jroark31@yahoo.com https://youtu.be/7iIFU1sC_FY

Designing Approximate Spur Gear in CATIA V5 (Method 3 of 4: import data from .xls(x) or .txt file)

William Harbin

0 0 Intermediate
This BND TechSource video shows how to create a “template” part for an Approximate Spur Gear. The difference is; this template is based upon a one time feed of data via an .xls(x) or .txt file and must be re-imported for every modification. This part may be modified changing the parameters of any/all of the following three formulae on the .xls(x) or .txt file: z - number of teeth // real parameter [z = input] Rpa - Ref Pressure Angle // angle parameter [Rpa = input] m - module // length parameter [m = input] Next we will look at using CATIA Macro + Import Parameters (from .xls(x) or.txt file) to feed the parameter data and update the Spur Gear. https://bndtechsource.wixsite.com/home .xlsx file: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cqqmNE9dxuM0XimnIWZSYKZfxsS0zwhj/edit?usp= .txt file - [m_3-Rpa_20-z_40]: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1t42oaimtwS7LBc7eos5YS9bWjcmjcfeq/view?usp=sharing .txt file - [m_3-Rpa_20-z_25]: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1csdQHt3jfLTE04kCkv03itM05oj0OYQc/view?usp=sharing

This BND TechSource video shows how to create a “template” part for an Approximate Spur Gear. This part may be modified by simply changing the parameters of any/all of the following three formulae: 1) z - number of teeth // real parameter [z = input] 2) Rpa - Ref Pressure Angle // angle parameter [Rpa = input] 3) m - module // length parameter [m = input] Next we will look at using Design Table (from MS Excel) to feed the parameter data and update the Spur Gear. https://bndtechsource.wixsite.com/home
