Adding Meta Data to a Custom Title Block in SolidWorks

Hey, first video tutorial... it's not great. This is in response to a question. I go through removing the current text fields (deleting them) and then the process of adding in new fields that reference properties for both the drawing and the model. This will help keep the meta data alive for project/database software like PDM.

How to convert a CAD file to an STL file?
GrabCAD Tutorials

Design & CAD

STL is the standard file type used by most or all rapid prototyping systems. A STL is a triangulated representation of a 3D CAD model (figure 1). The triangulation of a surface will cause faceting of the 3D model. The parameters used for outputting a STL will affect how much faceting occurs (figure 2 and 3). You cannot build the model any better or smoother than the STL file, so if the STL is coarse and faceted, that is what you can expect in the final model. In the CAD package, when exporting to STL, you may see parameters for chord height, deviation, angle tolerance, or something similar. These are the parameters that affect the faceting of the STL.You don’t necessarily want to go too small. The finer the STL the larger the file is in size, which will affect processing time in Insight as well as build time. Below is some information found on the Internet regarding exporting to STL from various CAD packages.

Hello all, This 2-min tuto will show you how to import the Welding Resources 3dxml file needed for the Weld Design application in CATIA 3DExperience on Cloud. You need to log as "Leader" on the Collaborative Space you want to import the file. You will locate the file here: C:\Program Files\Dassault Systemes\B422_Cloud\win_b64\startup\Welding\WeldingResources Then change to "Owner" role and make sure that welding resources is well applied to the Collaborative Space by opening the DATA Setup application. Please Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe :)
