Part family for assemblies?
Part family for assemblies?
(OP)
Hi,
I know the function of the "part family" to create parts. Is it possible to to use this feature or another feature to create assemblies?
My problem is: I have some parts an want to arrange and combine them in certain ways.
E.g.: I have the Parts A,B,C,D and the Parts 1,2,3,4. I want to combine A1,A2,A3,A4,B1,B2,...and so on and arrange them.
I thought of the feature "part family". So that have a top Assembly and want to load into that ASM on of the combination. And I only have to add one assembly an UG asks: A1,A2,A3,...?
Just like UG does with parts in the Part Family.
Thanks

Ata prior company, I did it in Pro/E with wire guide chanels that have a screwed down top. I had the bae U-channel with its holes as a family table. I had the top cover with its holes, and the hand nut to hold them together. The lengths were defined in the individual part family tables and the assembly family table brought the components together. For every new length, we had to create a new assembly. We did it as a family table because it made switching to a different length easier if some other aspect of the design changed.
