If there are sub-components in the screw component, the tools have to be created in the screw final file.

Note:During screw insertion with the function Wood > Screw, the tools to apply on the two parts to assemblecan be select in a drop-down list.

However, the first tool in the list is selected by default to machine the first part to assemble and the second tool

in the list is selected for the second part to assemble.

The first part to machine is selected

during the selection of the first face; its

the blue part in this example.

The second part is the gray part.

Note:During using a screw in the function Automatic assembly or Include standard, all the tools will be realized

on the parts.So the created tools have to correspond to the parts to machine.

Case of only the first part is machined

In the case of only the first part to screw will be drilled.

Create one martyr part with a thickness of 3mm. It will allow machining only the first

part.

The two tools have to be created in the component :

Clash shape creation

In the case of the screw is included with the function automatic assembly and if the first part is thicker than 3mm,

the second drill can be machine on the first part to assemble.

To prevent that, a clash shape will be created.

Create a part extruded of 5mm on the bottom of the second martyr part.

From the tree, edit the Tools set.

On the drill in the tool2, make Right click > Define tool.

Select Define clash shape.

Then select as Clash shape the previously extruded part.

Assembly kit

Simple assembly kit

The simple assembly kit allows creating an assembly component composed

of several assemblieselements.

For example, it can be composed of one cam and two dowels or one screwand two dowels.

This kit will be usable to propagate to assemble two parts.

Start the function Wood > Define > Define assembly template.

Select the option Creation.

Note:The Template definition wizard opens.

Advanced assembly kit

The advanced assembly kit allows creating a parametric component whose will be adjusted on the parts to

assemble.

It allows to creating components with more complex assemblies or/and with conditions depending of the length

of the parts to assemble.

Assembly example of Groove/Tab

Component creation and drivers

Create a new design document.

Create a lengthparameter:- Name: l

- Designation:Assembly length

Note:The parameter l will be used to adjust the kit on the assembly length.

Its possible to create additional driver parameters in a kit like the parts thickness. These parameters will be asked

during the kit using.

Create a lengthparameter:

- Name: th

- Designation:Thickness of the parts to assemble

Define the parameter th (and the other additional parameters) as driver.


22/26


18 Missler Software

Note:To simplify the kit creation, a rectangle representing the assembly face will be created.

Create a rectangle with a length of l and a width of th.


Create the kit coordinate system like bellow.

The kit coordinate system must be placed on the kit front and centered in the thickness.

The X axis is oriented to the kit interior.

Define this coordinate system as Key point :

- Name: r1

- Designation: Front center point

Note: its possible to create several key points in an advanced kit; the first in the list will be the selected by

default.


Note:The assembly kit will machine all the component tools automatically. So there are not tools naming rule.

The tools of the included components will be automatically inherited in the kit.

Its too possible to create a kit without tools.

Kit simple using

A simple or advanced kit is used with the function Wood > Other processes > Multi-component.

Like all the assemblies process, the face have to be selected :

- Support face

-

Start face- Centering face + Distance or Parallel face

- Terminate face.

In the case of a Simple kit, its possible to propagate it with the option Propagation = YES.

Note:The advanced kit with be dimension depending of the assembly length. So it is not propagated.

Kit automatic assembly

During automatic assembly rule definition in Tools > Options > Configuration TopSolidWood > Automatic

assembly, its possible to insert in a rule a simple or an advanced assembly kit.

To insert a simple assembly kit, select the picture Assembly kit.

Then select the assembly kit in library.

Give propagation and a centering mode for this kit.

To insert an advanced assembly kit, select the picture Non linear assembly kit.
