1079 - Let’s See Some ID: How Surface and Edge IDs Impact References and Mates

We have all seen how modifying or replacing a component in an assembly can cause the dreaded mate failures! Fixing these problems has long been a defined practice (it's taught in SOLIDWORKS Essentials), but adds time and frustration to your designs. Do you want to learn how to avoid these errors? Attend this session and understand more about how references to Surfaces, Edges and Datums are identified and managed in your SOLIDWORKS designs. See which features and techniques can be used to preserve IDs and design intent. This session is targeted for beginner and intermediate users, as well as CAD Administrators focused on implementing best practices, improved templates, and more reliable Design Automation methods.
