Thanks for sharing this. Nice and tidy explanation with good tips. Very helpful. +1 for the comment below - to select distance per revolution and then enter the pitch. Thanks!
For me it's not working, I cannot select any surface that you are pointing out. Could be an issue because the thread of the screw was modeled with the "thread" option?
Hi, when I try to select the two meeting faces it says selected entity is not valid for current mate type. This when i try to select the two face you have shown the apex on the screw and negative apex on the bolt. Could you help?
Kinda a cool. But I don't think I'd ever use this. Modeled helical threads is almost always unnecessary (thanks McMaster Carr!). Maybe if this mate translates to an animation for assembly instructions, so I could show a nut screwing/unscrewing. I just have to believe there's a simpler way to do that.
Nice video man ! But I have one advice at 2:37 ... you can just check Distance/revolutions box and enter pitch of a screw so yout don't have to count threads per lenght of a screw.
Funny, it doesn't work for me. I select the 1st face, just like in this video, and it selects fine, then I try to select the second face just like in this video, and I get "selected entity is not valid for this mate type (?).
Great video. A lot of things in Solidworks aren't what I would call intuitive. This was a big help, thanks for making it.
This is the solution I needed. Thanks a ton. I have tried about 11 times by now but always an error occurs but this helped me.
I looked for other videos, but the real thing was here. It may be that I wasn't good at searching, but :-D I felt relieved
Glad to hear that!

i had the same issue, modeling the thread and screw manually worked for me. I used the helix + sweep cut
Thank you
You're welcome

Hello, did you change you mate type to screw under mechanical mates option?
CAD Defined Hi, yes I have selected mechanical mate and Screw but i can't seem to select the second face
I have this problem too. Please help

hi sir ! could you help me to deep explain distance/revolutions and revolutions/mm . thanks a lot
@@MinhDIY sure ,what do you want to know ?
Part of the problem might be that the nut has a clockwise thread, but the bolt's thread is anticlockwise. They will always interfere.

Ok, I figured it out.
@@catkeys6911 Hi. How did you figure it out? I have the same problem here.

did anyone solve it? I have the same problem
Kind of weird that you are using a left hand bolt and right hand nut.
there's no FUCKING mate button on my version of solidworks
Looks like a paper clip on my 2013 SolidWorks...
