Assembly
(OP)
Since I decided to use Python, I'm having the next problem now:
I'm havind to parts, that I want to be lying one above the other. How can I input it a Python skript? Is there some het-command that would give me out the center-coordinates of a cube face? Or can I somehow position a reference point on each of the faces and say that I want these two faces to overlap in these points?
Please help!

RE: Assembly
an excelent starting point, in my opinion, would be ABAQUS Scripting User's Manual. This manual will provide the most information you probably need to know for the beginning. Besides, it is quite small (~about 300 pages, not all about Python) and has very helpful tutorials and examples.
Good luck.
RE: Assembly
But your *best* option for now, since you are just getting started, is to perform the various operations in the interactive GUI (i.e. ABAQUS/CAE) and then examine the abaqus.rpy file to see the commands that were produced. "Cut and paste" is your friend...
