I need to create doors.
The door sizes are different every time.
However, it is always be the following
- Two hinges
- One handle
- Two pixelglasses
- '8' shape aluminum extrusion
The distance of the hinges are always 5" from the top and bottom of the extrusion.
The handle location is always at the center of the door
The pixel glass is always 0.5" in both X & Y smaller than the extrusion area
I want to create a template of the door and it will automatically generate the part of the extrusion, pixelglasses and also create an assembly to put everything together.
How to do that?
Use DriveWorksXpress my dear friend. It is a free inbuilt design automation tool inside SOLIDWORKS and available with each seat since 2008.
You just need to make one master assembly and define your parameter. And for all new files, simply add the required values and rest everything would be taken care by DWX. Please note that it has few limitations but would be vert easy to use, so I would highly recommended it.
