Boolean operations in Assembly

[Jlog50]

Hi,

I have two parts in my assembly and one overlaps the other. I would like to make the overlap of part 1 remove the covered material in part 2 in solidworks 2010 assembly. Can anyone help?

Thanks.

I think the simplest method would be to use a Cavity feature. Look in SW help under Mold Features.

You can also insert part 1 into part 2 and use combine bodies function to subtract part 1 from part 2.
