Problem Scale Assembly and Simulation- SW

Hi all

 

First of all, I would like to point out that I have very modest CAD knowledge...

I'd like to scale an assembly, so I've saved it as a part but as this screen shows, I need to select all the faces of my assembly, so it's very long.... http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2016/15/1460643520-sw.png

In addition it seems that it "completely distorts the assembly"

Another "problem"

 

I had to do a simulation on this assembly.

The project is as follows, to design and manufacture a camera mount and then hang it on a zip line / steel rope

So the rope will pass between the two pulleys at the top, the 3rd will allow you to have more or less tension on the cable thanks to the slotted hole

The study assembly is just composed of the axes on which the entire weight of the assembly will rest (15N) and the plate on which all the fuss will be fixed http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2016/15/1460644790-sw4.png

 In your opinion, what should be taken in fixed geometry and external loads? (forces)

I suspect that it's not 1.5kg that will make aluminum axles fail but I am forced to do this study.

 

I hope I have made myself understood, thank you in advance to those who will take a little of their time for me.

In general, we work on solidworks at scale 1

so don't understand why you want to change the scale?

Your frame is made of welded construction

The deformations are accentuated for a good view

Hello

When recording in rooms, normally you can choose the bodies (in the register as window at the bottom).

Hello

when you want to select all the faces to scale, once in the function you press CTRL+A and it selects everything for you. No need to click face by side. Then you have to select from the drop-down menu your scaling either around the "center of gravity", "origin", "or a coordinate system". Do tests according to what you are looking for.

If you have saved your assembly as a part, then you only end up with surfaces and not a volume. so it is impossible to do a simulation study.

Then you have to know what you're going to size, the plate? The axes of the pebbles? The rope? The whole?

Hello
I have a project to do an electric zip line as an end-of-year project for high school. Would it be possible to send me the SW file to be able to start on a good basis if you don't mind
Thank you very much
Have a nice day

If you want I have a complete electric zipline project with mechanical study, cost study, environmental impact study, all in SW format + world report, all you have to do is change my name to yours...
And if you also want I also have your future math homework and I can also make you transfer my entire pay, are you interested?
Just in case, this is of course ironic and thank you for not digging up old posts especially when it's just a request to do the work for you.
Each year the more and more daring requests of some students tape me more and more, but bravo, there I really had to dare.

On the other hand, if you ever post your work to them and have advice, in this sense the forum is for you, don't confuse sharing with a subcontracting order, thank you.
Have a good day too.
