Configurations
• Single Configuration
• One Off Changes To Models
• Parts
• Assemblies
• Table Driven Configuration
• Design Table
• Parts
• Assemblies
• MS Excel Base Program
• Gives Expandable Control To Models

Design Table Creation
• Redundant Design
• When design concept of part requires repetitive endless iterations of the same basic part
• Springs, Bolts, Brackets, Washers……..
• High Complexity
• When design intent is to control dimensions, tolerances, visibility, suppression of features in part files as well as parts in assembly files
• Valves, Cylinders, Actuators………..

Redundant Design

MS Excel
• Design Tables Format
• Column Header Syntax
• Arranged in a vertical text orientation
• Must contain a:
• Prefix : $
• Proper Syntax according to use
• Parameters List
• Parameters are exported to Solidworks as program is refreshed when configuration is selected
• This allows usage of Excel to drive configurations by use of properties from model

Think Outside the Box
• Every Feature, Dimension, Part-State and Configuration has an parameter id inside SolidWorks • These provide details about size, shape, visibility
and state of parts or assemblies
• Parameters can be used as Outputs as well as Inputs • Data about the model can be used to drive the
configuration
• Does the result of the Design Table have to be a List? • Step outside the box!!!!

Complex Assembly Design Table
• Rotomation, Inc. • Ormond Beach, FL
• Rack and Pinion Rotary Actuators and Indexers • Pneumatic, CW, CCW or TC shaft orientation • Actuators Strokes up to 2000 Degrees of rotation • Indexers 360 Degree or less continuous rotation • Integrated Flow Controls, Cushions, Magnetic Sensing • Seal Variation, Port Locations and Size, Wash-down, HP(hyd)
• Multi-Layers of dependency for allowable options and feature location
• Approximately 1.5 million part number configurations on most complex model • Now Design Table Make “perfect” sense

Assembly Structure
• Body Part
• Individual Configurations
• Shaft Part
• Individual Configurations
• Miscellaneous Parts
• Switches, Needle Valves, Mounting Plates………
• All Parts and Hole features are loaded into Single Assembly File
• Configurations are created changing the states of features and parts in Main Assembly file
• Based on Option Selection in Drop Downs
• State Changes are made “Cell Equations” inside Excel
• Driving “Cell Data” pushed back to Assembly File upon Refresh/Exit
