Multi-body modeling involves designing and creating geometry using the many features and available tools from the part modeling space, and using a combination of reference geometry and relations to create multiple geometric bodies efficiently in the same file to achieve the result we need. In this presentation we’ll cover the following:
- Use 2D sketches together to build a multi-body part
- Apply the Weldment feature to keep bodies separated
- Understand how the Isolate command helps us to focus on the bodies that we need to
- Utilize Convert to Sheet Metal and Insert Bends to create sheet metal bodies from solids
- Use existing geometry to make our sketches associative for our design intent
- Use Move/Copy Body to place individual components
- Utilize the feature scope to choose which geometric bodies will be included in specific features
- Utilize Convert to Sheet Metal and Insert Bends to create sheet metal bodies from solids
Finally, we’ll use the geometry we’ve created to save the bodies out, and create an assembly with minimal effort.
