This is so cool! Seems like it might be handy for making quick images for presentations to illustrate how rubber or thin parts might flex. @4:30 what does the 'scale' check box do?
Sean, the intent for the check box is that it makes a dimension in the feature. Then when you select the feature and click Edit Dimensions, you can change that value in the Graphics Area. Also that dimension can be used in Family Tables to create design variations.
Thanks for the great videos. Yours are really the only high quality tutorials I've found for Creo. I've got warp working for a bent FPC, but I find that I can't bend complex shapes precisely since warp will bend the entire part rather than just the leg I want. If I could split the part into multiple bodies (like SolidWorks) it might work, but I don't think that's possible. Any suggestions? Thanks!
@@CADPLMGuy Flexible Printed Circuit - the flat (often) orange cables in lots of electronic devices where space is a premium. I'm stuck in 3.0 for the time being due to customer requirements, but I'm excited that multibody is coming when we can upgrade. I ended up converting it to a sheetmetal part and just bending it that way. Worked well and much more straightforward.
Ah, okay, we used a different acronym at Amazon. I hate acronyms - they get in the way of communication. I'll do a video on the technique I had developed for modeling them, involving sheetmetal and bends, Component Flexibility, and Part Simplified Reps.
