Assembly to weldment
Assembly to weldment
(OP)
Hi,is there anyway to convert an assembly to a weldment part? My problem is we have a model of each individual tube for a complicated frame. I would like these to be in a weldment under one part number. I also need to have each feature imported, not just the part itself. Ideally, a macro would work if you know of any. Any suggestions? Thanks!

If you save your assy as a part (using the All Components option), you will have a part with multiple bodies. In the newly created part, start the Weldment function. This will then treat the bodies as weldment parts & a cutlist will be available. The Length column will probably have to be manually input as the weldment does not have the weldment 3D sketch to derive the lengths from.
NOTE: The bodies will not have a feature "history".
