Hi

I added a component to my part and with
associative copy geometry linker I did
a linked face to the component face

Note the component added with Assembly constraints
I'm using nx8.5
After this linking I deleted the component from the Assembly

And saved my part

Now the link is broken how I can relinking it.

Thank you in advanced.

While the part file with the broken link is your "work part", and you can see the target that you want to relink it to, select the broken link, and edit with rollback. Select the new entity, and 'ok'. The link should update, and be associative again.

I think this only works when you have the Wave license..
You can make wave links without that license but the component you wave to has to be in the assembly.
With the wave license that is not neccesary.

However, I seem to remember that the procedure you described should also work (and keep the link) but I am not sure if that is also the case for NX8.5

Til now I used the above procedure but with keeping the component in my
part with an empty reference set and so rollback work
but now I want try with remove the component from my part.

I'm using assembly constraint to position the component relative to my part
and then build that link.
do with wave license I can do the above without add and constraint the component
to my part.
