Screw Modeling

[BlackMax98]

Hello All,


When modeling screws and clearance holes, are there simple techniques that are used in proe. I know that modeling each component (screw and hole) is not the correct technique. Does anyone have a link for a tutorial for modeling or generating screw parameters and hole clearances.


Thanks,


Sabe

Hi Sabe,


if you search for a way to model screw connections (screw + holes + threads or nuts, washers etc) in your designs you should look at the following website

maybe they will give you an evaluation license. Saves a lot of time when you model a lot of screw connections
