Hello,

Can You Help Me How to use these parameters?

These data are used to analize the model?

 

Thank you

Can you give us a little more information on what you mean and what material information you need?

 

The material files (.mtl) are just text files formatted in a certain way that Creo understands. They contain naming and mass property information relative to a material. The system comes with some preinstalled files. By default, there is no material assigned to a part file.

Hello BenLoosli,

I don't understand How to complete the requested data:

-> "Durezza" (Hardness): the value? For example: 52 HRC, I have to write 52

-> "Tipo di durezza" (Hardness Type): the unit of measure? Brinel, Vickers, Rockwell

-> "Condizione" (Condition): I don't understand what it means

 

The last question is how  the software used all these parameter

 

Thank you

Those fields are optional, not mandatory. I am not aware of how the software uses them but they are not used by any of the core modeling or simulation functionality.
