Virtual component a more indepth look
From a recent comment made on another blog, I receive few hits regarding virtual components. So I figure out that there is some interest in that subject.
First article was a simple introduction, so I decide I should give more exposure to this topic.

Assembly Relationship Assistant
In a perfect world, once parts are place in an assembly, we shouldn’t have to touch relations. Moving parts around, software’s should understand the new intention and adjust the type, the distance and the orientation of any relations. On top of that constraint should been applied to the correct faces.

Flash Fit
Flash Fit concept.
Flash Fit try to replicate the process of our brain when placing part.
When we hold an object, our brain process geometry and send informations to our hand to move/rotate so we can align two parts to make them fit together.
Like Keanu Reeve in the Matrix who see things in term of 0 and 1

Large assembly
Solidworks 2009 rollout go on, new features continue to flow. With new BOM functionnality in assembly I focus my last article on tools and functions we had to manage properties inside Solid Edge.
My attention this week was the speed pack. With titles like «Decimate de weak» in preparation to the new version and «SolidWorks 2009 Unleashed. New Features, Killer Performance.».
Face with Roman Empire my blog that look like small Gaulish village may face extinction…..
Ho!! wait is that magic potion.. don’t think so just pure solid DNA :):):)
Working on large assembly is a state of mind. Before anything, you need to commit to your assembly. If you are not willing to commit yourself no matter what, functions, tools or options; you will hit the wall and try to find workaround. Discipline and management are two important ingredients.
For those who are ready to play in the big league Solid Edge is ready….
“Process before technique, manage before action” will take all its meaning when dealing with large dataset.
So what Solid Edge has to offer in this field?
Last article was little bit long….so for this one I have split in smaller one (around eight that i will post this week)
