We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hello Chirag,

Note that at Ansys 2024R1, there is a new winding wizard in ACP:

You will find more information about it in the help:

https://ansysproducthelpqa.win.ansys.com/account/secured?returnurl=/Views/Secured/corp/v242/en/acp_ug/tools.html

”The Winding Wizard generates a winding lay-up for an axisymmetric body. The Wizard is useful for creating a simple lay-up where the paths are geodesic. For more complex winding lay-ups, consider importing the lay-up from a dedicated winding tool using ACP’s feature Import from HDF5 Composite CAE File … (See HDF5 Composite CAE Format.) CADWIND, CADFIL ,and μWind (Mefex GmbH) are all able to export Composite CAE H5 files and generate machine code.

The Wizard generates the following objects:

  • A cylindrical Rosette which defines a reference direction along the circumferential direction of the axisymmetric body

  • An Oriented Selection Set

  • A Lookup Table with the thickness corrections and angles

  • A template Selection Rule if limits are defined

  • A Modeling Group with the Plies

Once the lay-up is generated, you can manually adjust it. For example, you can edit the thicknesses and angles in the Look-up Table or edit the parameters of the Selection Rule.
