Design Table Question
Design Table Question
(OP)
hi all,
I have an assembly that needs to have over 100 different configurations. i know what the names of the configs are to be. can i create a design table with all the config names and descriptions, and have SW do the work? There are no dimensions changing. I've tried a bunch of ways, but all give errors about no valid deign table instances were found. i must have the table formatted wrong? thanks in advance!

Create two configs manually that are different in all of the areas that you want controlled in your design table. For parts this will be dimensions and feature suppression. For assemblies this will be suppression states of components, or configs of components (or custom properties).
Then create a new design table allowing SolidWorks to autocreate. It will automatically add all of the parameters that differ between your existing configs.
Now you will be able to easily add you 100+ configs.
