??SW2006 Mating Problem??
??SW2006 Mating Problem??
(OP)
I am trying to locate part, which is a rectangular plate, in solidworks 2006 but i'm having problems. The plates 4 corners are labelled A,B,C,D.
Taking A as the origin i am trying position the plate so that
Point B is 14mm below A
Point C is 11mm below A
Point D is 3mm above A
I started by mating Point A to the origin of the assembly but after that it wont let me do much else. There must be a way, surely?
thanks for your help in advance

1. Insert the plate into the assembly.
2. Verify that it is floating and not fixed.
3. Coincident-mate point A to the origin of the assembly.
4. Distance-mate point B to the top plane of the assembly.
5. Distance-mate point C to the top plane of the assembly.
6. If you want to fully constrain the plate, parallel-mate one of its edges to either the front or right plane of the assembly.
