How to 3D Print Jigs & Fixtures, Part 2: Designing for Print

55 6 Beginner
This is the second part of a four-part tutorial series on how to optimize your manufacturing jigs & fixtures for 3D printing. Today, we'll go over what to do in each design pass as you're optimizing your part, including specific steps to do in your CAD package, your print-preparation tool, and if you're bold, your FEA package. Later installments of this series will deal with FDM material selection and post-processing for jigs & fixtures.

ANSYS Tutorial 2022 : Bevel gear analysis using Ansys Workbench 2022

5 0 Expert
A bevel gear is a toothed rotating machine element used to transfer mechanical energy or shaft power between shafts that are intersecting, either perpendicular or at an angle. This results in a change in the axis of rotation of the shaft power. Aside from this function, bevel gears can also increase or decrease torque while producing the opposite effect on the angular speed. https://www.iqsdirectory.com/articles...

Ansys Static Structural 1.1

5 0 Beginner
Since I am a student I have a lot of textbooks which I store on a wall mounted shelf in my room. As a new Ansys user, I find them at the best way to learn a software such as Ansys is to apply it to real-life situations. in this simulation, I will be going through the whole process of a basic static structural simulation of the wall brackets of the mentioned above shelf. After doing this tutorial I will analyse the results and see if I could improve it in any way. The purpose of the tutorial is to help me learn and deepen my knowledge of this software but teaching it to other novices at Ansys. Hope you enjoy yohann
