Actually, limited to the demand of the material mechanics characteristics, keyway is only allowed to be placed on the central line. So, a horizontal movement is enough for keyway and the movement to other direction is not meaningful. Next we will... Read More

Scale Action can be matched with the Linear Parameter, Polar and XY Parameter to achieve various Dynamic effects. Linear Scale 1.Draw Finish drawing an access hole in a model space and define it as a block, as shown in the following picture.   2... Read More

Take the step shaft as an example, if we stretch the left part of the step shaft and the keyway still is at the center point of the smaller diameter shaft after stretching, as the following picture shows: Then, we use the "Distance Multiplier"... Read More

For mechanical designs, we often need to stretch the keyway to a certain length. Now, let us see how to realize an accurate stretch. Pick linear parameter in block editor (BEDIT), click entry frame which is on the right side of" distance type" on the... Read More

Parameters have an appearance similar to dimensions. Parameters also specify positions, distances, and angles for geometry in block reference. When you add a parameter to a dynamic block definition, the parameter defines one or more custom properties... Read More

For the Array function of Dynamic Block we need to use Array Action, we use Array Action to match with Linear Parameter, Polar Parameter, XY Parameter to achieve various Arrays. Linear Array As below, we will use Array to achieve a fast draw and... Read More

In the Block Editor (BEDIT), select the linear parameters, change the number of grips to "1" in the properties panel.   Save and exit the Block Editor, choose the Dynamic Block, you will find that one grip has disappeared, as shown below. In fact,... Read More

During a mechanical design, we often need to change the position as well as the dimension of the keyway. In this section, we will add Linear Tensile function for the keyway on the step shaft. Add linear parameter   2. Add stretch action Click the... Read More

For mechanical design, we often need stretch the keyway to a certain length. Now, let us see how to realize the accurate stretch. 1. Pick Linear Parameter: In block editor, pick the linear parameter, then click entry frame which is in the right... Read More

Modify the grips' number of the Polar parameter in the section symbol dynamic block in the last example to display both of the two grips of the Polar parameter. From the following picture we can see that the central grip is clearly different... Read More
