Hi

i have imported IGES file to catia v5. the model is very far from co-ordinate axis.
i want all three planes or an axis system on model which has no link with IGES model. in case if i delete IGES model, it should not disturb my parametric model which i build with that axis system.
how can i do this?

Thanks

Hi,
The axis system and the planes should be available in the default position.You can bring the iges model to the origin...create the new model by extracting the surfaces ( break the link..by isolating the extracts ) and you can delete the old igs model after creating the new one.Hope it works.
 
Hi,
Call this igs model in the assembly.Insert new part which will ask for a new origin point,define it on this model,create the required parametric model and if required, can delete the old model.Hope it works.
