At home I have SW 2006 that I use for the moto projects. There are a few modern features I wish I had access to but (as you can see) I'm doing okay with it as-is. While we're taking about CAD, I'll put out a shameless plug and mention that I'm currently out of work and looking for employment. My background is in consumer product development with the past 6 years working more specifically on light EVs. It doesn't show in my motorcycle work, but my expertise is in injection molded plastic part design. Again, nice chatting with you. ![]() |

Injection molded plastic is in my wheel house also. My engineering definition is basically the non-analyzer infrastructure engineering design. This is on high end gas phase or liquid phase mass spectrometers and includes everything not in the vacuum system. Structure, card cages, external enclosure, operator interface, serviceability, manufacturability, shock, vibration, all other QA testing, etc. etc.
Creo was easiest and best at this. It is no longer supported so we have to transition to NX (corporate decision). It is a tough row to hoe but I have to make it work... Dan |
