Abaqus coordinate system

Abaqus coordinate system

Abaqus coordinate system

(OP)
Hello guys :)
I have a problem in dealing withe the coordinate system in abaqus
when I sketch the section I want in the sketch module I set a specific point of the section at the origin
but when I use this sketch in the part module the position of the section changes.
how cn prevent this from happening, I want the position with refrence to the coordinates system to be the same in all modules and sketch ports
Notice the picture below for more illustration






I appreciate if anyone can help in this :))

RE: Abaqus coordinate system

In the 3D room create a CSYS in the origin first, so you can see where it is.
In the sketcher go into the sketcher option and reassign the origin of the grid to that CSYS.
