QualityEngineer Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Hi, Ive got a complex multi part assembly that contains alot of small parts that each screw in successively on top of each other, but what I wanted to know is... Is there a command that auto aligns the parts on a desired axis or face? Im manually aligning them, but this is a royal pain in the behind.... thanks QE Quote
JD Mather Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Learn to use assembly constraints. Same thing the person out on the shop floor does with the real parts. It could be you are interested in iMates, but without a sample dataset.... Quote
QualityEngineer Posted July 28, 2011 Author Posted July 28, 2011 yeah it was. My fault, I should have deleted the post as I remembered about 5 mins after posting this!!!!!! Clever eh?? Quote
Enfiel3D Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 You need to have a look at iMates. If set up properly, they can potentially assemble the whole thing for you automatically. Quote
