  The Archimedes screw is a water pump that allows water to be raised from a lower to higher elevation. It consists of a central shaft with a helical surface, which itself sits within a cylindrical channel. Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is as follows: Design an assembly for the Archimedes screw capable of lifting water a vertical height of 1.5 meters. The assembly should contain at least one mechanism connection. Your Archimedes screw does not have to resemble those in any of the images here. It can be either hand-operated or motor-driven. (The motor can be represented by a simple box part model.) Create a rendered image of your model. (Optional) Create a Kinematic Analysis using the Mechanism Design Extension (MDX) and output a movie of the playback. Note that every license of Creo Parametric comes with MDX. (Optional) Create a rendered animation of the motion using the Design Animation Option (DAO). Every license of Creo Parametric comes with DAO. In your su

I have this weird issue that whenever I connect my phone with my computer via usb cable, my mathcad license will dissapear and whenever I try applying it it prompts me with this error. The license request failed.Requesting MathcadPrime ...C:\Users\kleol\Desktop\sw_license_email_278734.dat: (-9) Invalid host. If I try yo share hotspot from my phone, instead of using ethernet through it with a usb cable, the license appears again and if I try to activate it it works well. Does anyone have any idea how i can fix this issue? I am also using a 30free trial license.  

Flexible offset is changing the chamfer dimension from 0.50 to 0.30 with 0.00 offset. this should not happen.I am using Creo 7.    

Hi all. In Creo toolkit how to take left and bottom most edges from the drawing view(not a model view)?if anyone knows pls help me Thanks   

(view in My Videos) 

I need to create a Logo to place on a Drawing Template in Creo Parametric 8  but when I try to create it it shows only the lines.  How can I make it of a solid color?   

I am Working on a Satellite data, where information is stored in a Raw data exchange format .prd file, i have extracted the information in csv file where i got the I and Q data in decimal, now i wanted to apply fourier transform, power spectral density for getting the doppler. i am working on python can anyone help me regarding this...Note that i have a large data set which is about 144crores but i have divided it into chunks..Thank you

I added this line to my config.pro for Creo 9.0.5.0: EFX_LIBRARY_PATH X:\OR\Engineering\Systems\PTC_Settings\afx\ It gives an error message when I look at my active configuration that it is an invalid setting. I did copy the <loadpoint> Common Files/afx folder to  X:\OR\Engineering\Systems\PTC_Settings I got the information from a 2018 thread, so I wonder if the settings have changed since then?  

When I open a Drawing file in Creo Parametric 8, it won't let me put either tolerances or dual dimensions on the dimensions I place. Please help meeee, how can I activate those functions?       

Hola a todos, Soy nuevo en publicar aquí.Como puedo encontrar el valor que le corresponde a un numero de una matriz (buscar) en una columna de una matriz X. en caso que el numero se repita varias veces se pueda poner el máximo y mínimo para ese numero.Gracias de antemano por la atención prestada.             

Where is my or Mathcad error? May be I must have not a & b, but a, b & c? See please the attach. Answer please as Prime 6 or pic or pdf  

Is it possible to solve the ODE in attach? Thanks!

I had Windchill 12.0.2 with Creo 7.0.10 and CreoView Adapter 8.0 running where submitting a job by chedk-in would launch the adapter and publish the image. Did an upgrade to Creo 9.0.5 and CreoView Adapter 9.1 the other day and now it won't start automatically. If I start the ProEworker on the Windchill server, I can use the Worker admin tool and start the publishing and then jobs publish. If the ProEworker is not started, the worker doesn't start. In either case, the icon says Executable Not Safe, but it does start with the worker already running. I have double and triple checked the agent.ini file and the worker.exe.whitelist.prefixes setting to be sure both are spelled and capitalized exactly as Windows sees the folder names. Anyone have some idea as to what to try next?

I am trying to figure out how to pass an IDF from Creo (7.0.8.0) to my electrical coworkers who use Mentor Xpedition. I have been able to import IDF pairs I have received from them and see all the components, but I can't seem to export an IDF that shows them the components. Why is it that Creo only exports an emn from an assembly and no emp? When I send the emn over and they import it to Xpedition, they get the board outline, holes, keepouts, etc. but the components don't come in and it says "Component [ref des] found in IDF file but not in design so it was not imported" and I'm not sure what that error really means. How can I give an IDF with components placed with their outlines to my EEs?  

I have a question about good practices, how to best choose the bend and corner reliefs (oblong, circle, rectangle, etc.)? When is one better than the other? Do you use any type as standard? 

Hello,After installing Creo 10.0.0.0 Parametric with the UNI/Student license, the Composite feature is missing, as shown in the attached picture (It should be below "lattice". Other students using the same license and install configuration have it present. I reinstalled Creo, deleted and set up the license again. I tried configuring the ribbon (maybe the feature just isn't shown), but there is only a "composite properties" feature available with the name "composite" in it (see attached picture). Thanks    

Hi, Currently when we import an emn & emp file in creo while connnected to windchill, if the component model exists in the windchill database, the import function will place the real model rather than the place bound volume.The issue is that there may be some component cad models that are wrong within the windchill database (the origin is badly oriented, or the dimensions are wrong), and i would not like to import them, and import the place bound volume instead.Is it possible in any way to tell creo or windchill  to only search for components in a specific container within windchill?  (for instance the "OFFICIAL_LIBRARY" container) 

 I succeeded calculate multiply:But convert in vector "g" I cant do And quastion: Do mathcad have any method to calculate this?Like:     

When I open an old version of an assembly using Windchill, it opens with the newest version of the components. Is there a way of opening the old version of the assembly with the then-versions of the components assembled? 

I have made an attempt to extract the right set of data (column) from two different tables based upon the selection in the combo boxes, unfortunately it's not working as I want. Attached is my worksheet. Thanks for any help!   

I'm still learning the Creo features.I would be grateful if you could help me.I was checking out the Demo for the Enhanced Pattern feature.As you can see in the picture, there is a hole in the shape.When I checked the task tree on the left, I saw that the Extrude item contains reference elements. I tried to do something like this, but it was not possible to implement it like the method in the Demo except to set the reference element first and then Extrude. How can I Extrude like in the demo? 

Good evening,   I am having problems licensing my Mathcad 9! I am a student at a university in Austria, computer science branch, and got a product key from my teacher. I redeemed it at school, where everything still worked and I could use Mathcad 9 without any problems. But when I wanted to do my homework at home, my software was unlicensed. I tried to re-license it with my user + password + product key (the same one I used at school) and with the license file that was sent to me when I licensed myself at school. However, neither of these worked. When I want to activate my key at home with user, password, and license key I get this error (see picture in the attachment). When I am back at school and connected to the school wifi, I can select my license file and use Mathcad 9 normally.   Kind regards, Philip

Hello,My company is migrating from Mathcad 15 to Mathcad Prime 9.0. We have a number of Python scripting files that generate Mathcad 15 files by creating the XML data needed to generate and access Mathcad 15 files. In Mathcad Prime 9.0, it looks like the files are not purely XML data. There appears to be some sort of header and footer data, in addition to the XML data. Is there information on what the header and footer data is? Additionally, the Python scripts internal to my company just puts together a string of characters to generate the XML data. Would this work in Mathcad Prime 9.0? I need to convert the files to support Mathcad Prime 9.0, but it doesn't appear to be as straightforward as I thought.   

Hi, how can I represent an assembly with 2 different configuration (sets of constraints) of subassembly?I realize the snapshot of the 2 configuration of subassembly.When I put the subassembly in 2 upper level assembly, if I recall a snapshot in one of this assembly, it put the same configuration in the other assembly: I want to mantain 2 different configurations in the 2 different assembly. Best regards, Michele Barile
