MEEN 351 - Fall 2003 | home
LAB1
I-DEAS 10 is installed on all the computers in Bogard Hall 301, 331, and 118A.Even though I-DEAS supports shared Team folders, we have not implemented this option. The default Team folder is simply stored on the hard disk of each computer. For your convenience, you will probably want to store your I-DEAS and Solid Edge data files on your network drive (E:). NOTE: I-DEAS has problems with directory paths that include spaces. Therefore, do NOT store you I-DEAS files in the standard My Documents folder. Create a folder on your E: drive, say, MEEN351, and store all of your I-DEAS files in that folder. All of the COES lab computers have 250 MB ZIP drives built in, so it would be wise to back all of your data files up on ZIP disks or a USB keyring storage device.
By the end of the quarter, you should have completed all 23 of the I-DEAS Part Modeling Level 1 tutorials. Pay special attention to I-DEAS Tutorial 13 - Extruding and revolving features. Submit the part created in steps 1-11 of this tutorial according to the Lab Project Submission Procedures as LAB1.
