It's also worth mentioning that: Everything mentioned here, apart from the mechanical constraints (gear, screw and rack & pinion), can also be done in Alibre Atom 3D. Which is a lot of power for a CAD that costs very very very little money!
Amazing video. I am very envious of your ability to explain simple things simply. It is a lot harder than people think. I should know because I've tried it. This is an amazing tutorial that can get people up and running in less than 30min. Massive Kudos!
Instead, of converting inches to mm. You can enter the unit of measurement after the figure and Alibre will convert it. Can use " ' ft mm dm m and more.
Good tutorial. The only comment is we have found in the past that if there are too many "make flexible" sub-assemblies the program has a problem handling the movement. Other than that, this new update is great.
Can you make a video how to setup the Excel add on for Atom 3D? I have no luck launching the add on. I can't find the exe file in the Excel directory under Alibre installation directory . Alibre help section is not enough in this case.
Great tutorial. You even did show the common assembly pains, one being clicking wrong set of holes because the part/subassembly landed incorrectly in the space 🙂 However, I think if you click right mouse button and hold it on a part/subassembly, you can orient it in the space closer to the position you'd like it to be constraint. Then it'll make more sense which holes to mate. Just my two cents
I'm not sure how to do what you said there Ty. Could you elaborate a bit more. I right click and hold and it's not doing anything... Is there an option or key definition for that?
@@ExMachinaEngineering I checked it, actually you hold the shift while holding left mouse button, and move your mouse. It'll orient the part freely in the space. Right mouse click is my habit left from Solidworks days I guess :)

Excellent demonstration. That taught me a lot in a short time. Very engaging.
Wow! I did not pay attention to the constraint's limits until now. Great option. Thank you!

Many thanks!
Great video. Give us more and thank you!
Thanks for uploading. It seems silly now, but I never thought of having sub-assemblies. Way easier.

Superb video Joseph. Thanks. Jim

After seeing this video, I'm saving for the Pro license. The Atom license is great but limited

@@tctnNow that's a cool tip right there.
Don’t miss Creo much, but the “repeat” command would really shine here for duplicating constrained components.
Great job with the video! lots of good info. Cant wait to see what you show next! Will you guys make a video explaining surfacing soon?
What tools do you have for reverse engineering 3D scans?
Could you please do a showcase of that?
