having trouble assembling?

Hello All,

I am having an issue with assembling a catpart to gsd surfaces. could my problem be that this is not possible or must I be going about it the wrong way.

thanks in advance Tim

hi,

what do you mean by assembling a catparrt to gsd surfaces?

What I mean is can you assemble to a surface? just a surface without thickness using a part created in part design. I had iges data that I could not assemble to so I thought I could place surfaces where I needed to attach to and assemble it that way do you know what I mean.

Thanks for your reply, Tim

hi,

in your IGS file, does your surface has canonical properties (cylinder, planar faces)?

You can check that if you analyse the surface, if it is a cylinder you will have a radius...

I have R10sp5 and I am able to set some concentricity from 1 surface file to another... but those surface files are made in V5, not IGES...
