Project: Connector Assembly Structure (A#1)
Completion Time: 10 Minutes
Prerequisites
- Knowledge of Assembly structures
Objective: An introduction to Assembly Design. Emphasizing assembly terminology by creating new assembly documents and manipulating component properties.
Process: The objective of this exercise is to bring in existing components into the assembly structure and adjust the assembly structure in the specification tree through the properties page.
Instructions
1: First let's set the units to inches.
Step 1 - Details
In the Tools pull-down menu, select Options + Parameters and Measure. Select the Units tab and set Length to Inch (in). Select OK to exit.
2: Next Open up a new Product
Step 2 - Details
Select File + New. Select Product in the New dialog window. Select OK.
Note – If the Assembly Design workbench is already active, initiating the Assembly Design workbench will create an additional Assembly Design document window. The number that occurs right after the word Product in the specification tree indicates how many similar documents have been opened or initiated in the current session.
3: Change the Product name by doing clicking the Right Mouse Button (RBM) on the "Product1" component in the specification tree and pull up the properties dialogue box and change the Product Name to Connector Assembly Structure.
4: Now add parts and sub-assemblies to the empty assembly using the "Existing Component" operator in the Product Structure ToolBar . Select Exiting Component. Then select the product "Connector Assembly Structure" to access the file query dialogue box
Insert the "ConnectorShell.CATPart" and the "ConnectorCardAssembly.CATProduct"
Step 4 - Details
Hold the Ctrl key down to multi-select the two components
5: RMB on the ConnectorShell.CATPart. Copy and Paste it onto the Connector Assembly Structure branch.
The result will be another instance of the Connector Shell part (Connector Shell.2)
6: RMB on the instance of Connector Shell.2, using Properties change the instance name to Bottom Shell.
7: Similarly, rename the instance of the first Connector Shell.1 to Top Shell.
8: Select Save Management and Save the "Connector Assembly Structure.CATProduct" to your personnel directory or "Mydocuments".
9: This completes Assembly Design Exercise #1.
