1.INTRODUCTION TO PARAMETRIC MODELING PARAMETRIC MODELING
1.INTRODUCTION TO PARAMETRIC MODELING : Origin Specs : T°, P, C Presentation Calculation: D mini, Valve XXX - Time consuming - Lack of flexibility - Unpleasant routine job for designers How to accelerate the process? New Specs Geometry Manual Input to renew at each spec modification PARAMETRIC MODELING
Specs : T°, P, C Calculation: D mini, Valve XXX - Transform the specs, calculation, expert rules into parameters and relation included in 3D modeler - Construction of a parameter driven geometry -The Geometry is directly linked to functionnal parameters, and automatically updated Geometry - Time saving - Less repetitive work 1.INTRODUCTION TO PARAMETRIC MODELING : Principles PARAMETRIC MODELING
External diameter of shaft DBearing Length: LL=1.5D Non parametric: 44 sec - 4 dimensions to modify - Repetitive operations Parametric: 13 sec - 1 parameter to modify 1.INTRODUCTION TO PARAMETRIC MODELING : Example PARAMETRIC MODELING
2. BASIC FUNCTIONS PARAMETRIC MODELING
2. BASIC FUNCTIONS : Parameters and formula Parameters: - Has a name, dimension, and value - Can be anything: mm, T°, MPa, s, - Can drive or be driven - Can be inputted or picked up from a list - Can be limited to a range Available in any workshop PARAMETRIC MODELING
- Formulas - Will allow to create a mathematical link between one or several input parameters, and a output one - Only allow to create continuous links - Insert Knowledge, expert rules in an assembly 2. BASIC FUNCTIONS : Parameters and formula PARAMETRIC MODELING
Example of the shaft and bearing: We want to drive it from “functional parameters” such as torque, safety coefficient 2. BASIC FUNCTIONS : Parameters and formula PARAMETRIC MODELING

3. ADVANCED FUNCTIONS PARAMETRIC MODELING
3. ADVANCED FUNCTIONS: knowledgware Knowledge Advisor: Most of knowledge tools, Product Engineering Optimizer: Optimisation PARAMETRIC MODELING
3. ADVANCED FUNCTIONS: Knowledge Advisor Rules: - Allow to create non continuous actions - Synchronus (relaunched each time an entry parameter is modified) - Several outputs PARAMETRIC MODELING
Reaction and actions: - Like a rule but Asynchronuous (Launch action when a specified parameter is modified) - Possibility to couple short script etc 3. ADVANCED FUNCTIONS: Knowledge Advisor PARAMETRIC MODELING
Check: - similar to the rule, but just giving an information if D>30mm 3. ADVANCED FUNCTIONS : Knowledge Advisor PARAMETRIC MODELING
Optimizations: - Possibility to include an optimization inside the model - You can then couple it to a reaction so that it is launched any time a specific value is changed 3. ADVANCED FUNCTIONS: Product Engineering Optimizer PARAMETRIC MODELING
4. PARAMETRIC AND SMARTEAM PARAMETRIC MODELING
- No problem when creating parameters, formulas, copying sketches, inside a Part. - When creating formulas, copying parameters, sketches between parts, has to be outside the context of an assembly. - Each part has to be open in a different window, and not being open in an assembly in another window 4. PARAMETRIC AND SMARTEAM: Contextual links A.00 B.00 Parameter copied with link A.01 B.00 Preliminary - No Replace to latest PARAMETRIC MODELING
- To buil a parametric assembly, always use a skeleton - Put the pilot parameters inside the skeleton - Use it as knowledge container to distribute the parameters to different parts 4. PARAMETRIC AND SMARTEAM: Contextual links PARAMETRIC MODELING
