Creation of Vice with Multi-Tightening
Select the “Clamping / Toolholders” module in the Homepage. in the Homepage screenshot. | |
Click the GO button | |
Select the file to import | |
Choose the import option you want to apply on the solid. Click “Apply” | |

And click again on the reference face and then the ‘green tick’ to validate. | |
We select the commands 'Component Vectors' then 'orientate the axis' and click on the face of the mobile element to create the vector as shown. | |
Repeat the same procedure to create a create on the opposite side of the mobile element as shown. | |
Check the box 'Inversion of the vector direction' to invert the vector direction. Since it is the opposite side of the jaw, activate the checkbox for 'Opposite Tightening', then validate with the green tick. | |
On the dynamic symbols tree, select all 3 ‘Mobile elements’. Then right-click and select 'Link elements'. | |
Repeat the process for the second jaw. First, click the command 'Component Vectors' to create system of axis. Then select the mobile element as shown. | |
Select 'orientate the axis' and click on the face of the mobile element to create the vector as shown. then validate. | |
Click on the command 'Component Vectors' and select 'orientate the axis' again then select the face shown to create the vectors. Then validate. | |
Repeat the procedure on the other side of the second jaw. Then link the 3 newly created elements. | |
Click the command 'Creation of System of Axis'. | |
Select the tool to define the position of system of axis | |
Define the system of axis 0 as shown on the image. | |
