HOW TO TAKE PART PARAMETER TO ASSEMBLY PARAMETER OR RELATION?


ASEMBLY RELATIONNEED INPUT FROM PART PARAM LIKE "MASS" OR "DENSITY".


FOR eg IN PART IF MASS= 100 I NEED THIS IN ASSEMBLY RELATION.
 
I would use the EXECUTE statement in the assembly to open up part program and get the required variable. If you don't know about EXECUTE then I can explain how to do this in more detail if you wish. just pm me. There may be other ways to do it but that is the way I know how to.
 
There is a way to do this.


1 - open the assembly


TO FIND THE ID OF THE PART IN THE ASSEMBLY


2 - choose a feature in the part that has the parameter & edit


3 - Switch dimensions (the dimension will be in the format dxx:yy - the yy is the assembly ID of the part)


4 - go to the assembly relations window


5 - enter assembly_parameter = part_parameter:assembly_ID
