**We are no longer using MeetUp for the group as few people used it and was a pricey item for me to pay for out of pocket.

Next Meeting

All, I am waiting to hear back about the date of our next meeting from the hosting sponsor. I will let you all know as it is confirmed. Also, I have decided to no longer continue paying for "Meetup" services. Sorry for any confusion.

November 17th, 2016 11-12 PM - Managing and organizing your engineering data effectively in Chattanooga SOLIDWORKS User Group (ChattSUG)

Posted by Nicole Walden Nov 15, 2016

Big Data Update!

Managing and organizing your engineering data effectively

» REGISTER NOW

Who is concerned about big data in your company? Besides the data being created and stored locally, where else is data saved to? And then how is it located for whatever reason one may have? Why should anyone care as disk space is cheap?

In the case of engineering and new product design the ability to create data often represents a physical part being built or purchased. A little more of a cost impact than say an office doc. Now let’s consider the task of organizing and then locating a particular piece of engineering data. What steps does one go through or not even bother at all. What is the bottom line cost impact for this behavior to go unchecked?

PDM systems today provide companies with a great advantage tackling the task of organizing company data as well as managing visibility, release and control. However data may exist in other repositories unknown to others. How is that data leveraged for possible consideration in a new design? Now consider how many data silos exist in your company that only a few have an idea of what’s inside.

With that said we invite you to join us November 17th for a brief update on the latest release of SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional as well as what might be a first time introduction to EXALEAD OnePart (EOP). EXALEAD is an offering from SOLIDWORKS that provides companies with more leverage in realizing less duplicate parts through reuse. Learn how the combination of SOLIDWORKS PDM & EXALEAD OnePart is having an impact on companies like yours.

Enhancement Request - Customize default drawing projection type in Chattanooga SOLIDWORKS User Group (ChattSUG)

Posted by Nicole Walden Sep 17, 2015

SPR #:

359418

1st & 3rd are defaulted in sheet properties would like the option to control which of the ISO,

DI, and Tri views are the default for projection views

The reason we use Dimetric instead of ISO is due to the large equipment we build. The dimetric view shows what we need but takes up the least amount of space on the drawings.

If this is something of interest ask your VAR to attach you to this SPR
