Import Loads "No Solid Body To Process"

Import Loads "No Solid Body To Process"

Import Loads "No Solid Body To Process"

(OP)
Hi, I have a motion study of an assembly which I'm trying to import loads from in Cosmosworks.  Whenever I go to Cosmosworks/Import motion loads and select the part and frames to import (210-290) and hit ok I get an error message: "There is no solid body to process" and nothing happens.

What is goin on?  How can I fix this.  This is essential for an undergraduate project I'm doing and I'm running out of time.  Could anyone help me out here?

Thanks  

RE: Import Loads "No Solid Body To Process"

In the assembly that had the motion study, how was the part mated?  If the part was not mated to anything or the motion constraints were no9t applied to solid faces, SW may not find the exported loads to attach to the solid body.

The part was mated but only concentric.  It was prevented from translating vertically by the 3D contact option.

I wish I could help more.  Most of my C/Motion work is done on wireframe schematics, so I don't really get to use the load exporting functions.
