SW standard library gears can not be modified

You can modify it, first modify it to what you need according to the requirements, and figure out the equation, there should be a rule. But after the modification, you must save it as, otherwise your standard parts will be changed, and it will be troublesome in the future. After saving as, import it into your design tree, and later you can directly call it as a standard piece, hehe, I hope it will be useful to you.

can be modified.

Modify it according to the requirements to your own needs, and pay attention to the modification must be saved as, otherwise your standard parts will be changed, and it will be troublesome to draw in the future. Save as and import it into your design, which can be directly adjusted as a standard part later.

The SOLIDWORKS system comes with a library of standard parts, which includes bolts, nuts, screws, and studs.

Keys, pins, gaskets, retaining rings, sealing rings.

For common parts such as springs, profiles, flanges, etc., the model data can be directly called.

In SOLIDWORKS, when a new part is generated, you can directly reference other parts and maintain this referencing relationship. In the assembly environment, parts can be easily designed and modified. For large assemblies with more than 10,000 components, SOLIDWORKS performance is dramatically improved.

SOLIDWORKS provides the tools to produce complete, shop-approved, detailed drawings. Drawings are fully associative, and when you modify the drawings, the 3D model, individual views, and assemblies are automatically updated.

Yes, as said upstairs, it's better to save it first, otherwise the standard will be changed, and it will be troublesome to use it later.

OK. Modify the sketch after generating and saving.

With SOLIDWORKS, it is best to use the gear plug-in when designing gears, which will generate the required parts separately. The gear library of the SW itself is very simple and inconvenient to use.

1. Open the soildworks design library, select toolbox, and select GB - Power Transmission - Gear.

Pay attention to preservation. The save location is generally in the C drive-soildworks file, it is recommended to change the save location.

After taking a look at the question time of this question, it's been a long time, and I don't know if you've solved it. Let's talk about it.

This version of the 12th version seems to be directly dragged out and cannot change the parameters, but you can right-click on the part icon in the design library and select the generated part to change the parameters

It is recommended to delete the equation and try it.

1. Before designing, you need to install the Mufeng Toolbox plug-in, and after the installation is completed, the toolbar will be automatically displayed in the SOLIDWORKS design panel.

2. Click the "Gear Design" button on the toolbar.

3. When the gear design panel pops up, you need to focus on the parameters of the gear, not the modeling of the gear, which is automatically completed by the software. As shown in the figure, input the parameters such as the number of teeth Z1, Z2, modulus M, tooth width, pressure angle and so on of the two meshing gears.

4. After the setting is completed, the motor "generates gear 1" and "generates gear 2", and the software will automatically generate the gear of the parameters you set.

5. The software automatically generates gear 1.

6. The software automatically generates gear 2.

7. Now save the two gears, and manually draw the shaft hole and the card slot where the key is placed, and assemble it according to the requirements of the gear center distance in the assembly.

You need to set the parameters in the assembly mode.

1Start by opening the toolbox plug-in in the plug-in.

2Find the gear in the directory of the toolbox and right-click "Generate Part" on it. The property bar of the gear settings automatically pops up on the left.

3. Through a series of settings, we can get the gear we want, if it does not meet our own requirements, we can modify it on the basis of the existing gear.

4. After the modification is completed, it can be saved. Note that it is recommended to save it with "Save As".

The design library file can be modified, but the original file in the various settings, including parameters are standard parts, is it necessary to change, if you need non-standard workpieces can copy out the file and change it separately, your own commonly used non-standard parts can be added to the design library, the file in the design library contains two parts, the first is the part and the second is the data in the design library, maybe you only modified the file when you modified, but the data in the design library has not changed, and the new parts do not fit in the resulting errors.

After seeing your diagram, I found that your problem is not as serious as I imagined, your situation is that the edge line is lost, and the edge you cut off is the reference line that matches the reference, and of course you cut it to the reference.

The error you make indicates that there is an error in the mate reference of the part, and it is possible that you cut out the datum of the mate reference of the part when you created the cut feature. This mate reference is primarily used to automatically generate mate relations when mating an assembly. If you don't feel you need it, you can delete it, or you can change the mating reference to the benchmark you need.

1. First of all, you need to open SOLIDWORKS and create a new part.

2. Select Plug-ins in the toolbar and select SOLIDWORKS Toolbox Browser.

3. Toolbox will appear in the design library on the right, select toolbox.

4. Select the power transmission and select the type to be drawn as needed.

5. In the left properties, modify the gear parameters in SOLIDWORKS, and select Confirm to generate the gear parts.

The gears can be generated directly from the design library, and after they are generated, the gear parameters can be set in the design tree on the left, and then they can be checked and saved as parts.

After saving, it will lose its read-only nature, and it may still be read-only, just find the part and remove it.

Click the icon to change the sketch size.

You can't pull it out directly, you have to right-click, select the generated part, and then you can choose the number of teeth, modulus, bore diameter, key format, and so on according to your needs! I'm also just learning, let's talk together!

If it is a part that has been generated, when you need to modify the parameters inside, you can at the front of the design tree, usually in front of the rotating boss or extrusion boss, there will usually be a sketch (the holdingske sketch will be marked with a point or a straight line with the size), modify the size parameters in the sketch "holdingske" (note that the size with the equation symbol generally does not need to be moved, unless you know how to write the equation)! (The tooth profile and profile dimensions in the rotary boss or stretch boss are generally displayed as equations, and if you modify the parameters of the previous sketch, the rear boss will automatically change).

Hope it helps.

Modification Steps:

Find the part you want in the design library;

Right-click to generate part;

access to the desired part;

Open the design tree above;

Where you need to modify it, right-click on the feature or sketch.

If the parameter selection of the gear is wrong, there is no need to change it, you regenerate one, if you just want to add keyways, hubs, etc., you can only add or cut out step by step according to the drawing method, you carefully select the relevant options when generating, and try to modify as little as possible, that is, if you want to change the equation, then this... That... It's too much trouble...

Place the Content folder on a disk, for example, mine in F: Content to open the SOLIDWORKS2012 software.

Let's take a look at the default design library location of the software, which contains the toolbox. Here's how to add your own standard library.

Click on the second "Add File Location" button, find the folder where the standard parts are placed, and then confirm.

The "standard parts" library will be automatically added in the design library, and you can see the content of the standard parts by double-clicking the standard parts.

The mouse is ready to use it by holding it directly to the middle of the screen on the part it wants to use.

1. Prepare the size bevel gear that needs to be modified.

2. Open the big gear, draw a sketch line on one of the two datum planes of the axis line, and connect the intersection point of the cone line and the midpoint of the gear end face to make a center line.

3. Make a sketch line at the midpoint of the root line connecting a single tooth root and the center of the end face circle.

4. Click "Insert" - Reference Geometry "- Datum".

5. In the pop-up dialog box, select two straight lines as the first reference and the second reference respectively, and then confirm. The modification is complete.

This is very difficult to change, because it is parameter-driven, you don't know the meaning of each parameter, I usually regenerate a gear, you can use geartrax to make gears, very convenient!

The fastest way to drag a gear from the toolbox to make the new gear you need is the quickest.

I use the Medi toolset, which is much more convenient than that.
