Material from SETUP

[imichiu]

Iassociate material to our models via SETUP-MATERIAL-ASSIGN.

We want to display this material on parametrically on the drawing. We have set up a parameterand material
Is there a relation that I can write to automatically update and material when amaterial is assigned to the part? I didn't know if there was a system parameterfo material or not.


Iuse thetruck for updating material=material_param(condition), but unsuccessfully, I use WF2.

We do this where I work (WF2) and it works successfully.


We created a string parameter MATERIAL_NAME & use the relation


MATERIAL_NAME=material_param("condition").


In the drawing format, we use &MATERIAL_NAME in a table to call the parameter.


One thing that you need to ensure is that in the material file, on the CONDITION line is the material.

Hi IM


I am not able to assin material by this method SETUP-MATERIAL-ASSIGN.


Is there any material avilable in ptc folder.Can write in detail.


Thanks in advance.

Hi robertib,


THANK YOU, I forghet the '', because I used the old file from 2001.


For chandra, a library with material I have from http://www.mcadcentral.com.

Hi people,

I'm having difficulties in retrieving the material assigned to the model in the part mode while displaying the bill of materials in the drawing

Is there any function or a way to do it.

If so how, I'll be greatful if u people help me with some tutorials.

Hi
How do I enable a part to calculate its own weight?
Create a <B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">parameter[/B] called <B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">weight[/B] (real no.) Add a <B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">relation[/B]:
weight=mp_mass("")
Ensure the density (<B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Setup | Density[/B]) is correct for the model and units After regeneration the model will calculate and store <B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">weight[/B] This parameter can be shown on drawings using "<B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">&weight[/B]"

Thanks IM


please send material file to my mail [email protected]


because i searched in mcadbut i am not able got.


And how link in proe when we pick assin.

HI imichiu
Be sure that the condition has a name! If the condition value is
empty , the relation will produce a wrong message! using WF2.0

hi,


how do i add library which contains list of different types of the material with properties Like density, tensile strength etc. ishould be able to assign & retrieve the library for the new models

hello


step1 : create parameter weight


step2: analysis>model analysis> density=1>compute>ok


step3:edit >setup>mass prop>ok


step4: relations>weight=mp_mass('')>ok


step5: tools>parameters>see the calculated mass


ok
