HI!

1. You can copy the file, and remove the preparation features.
2. You can create one iPart and create two members, first row, the "forging part", second row, the part with machining features (this features are suppressed in the first row). In drwaing you can place and represent the member you need, case 1(forging) or case 2 (machining).

Dear Sir,

Thanks for your reply. But if i make the two rows 1 for forging & second for machining, but when i make the drawing and i update the .prt file the drawing will get automatically updated. so the forging drawing will show the machining features in the drawing.

My  question is how to get them supperess for the forging drawing & keepactive for the machining drawing.

Please help

You may look at iPart for your forged part. This will allow you to "Step" each process and have a drawing for each machining process. Send me an e-mail and I will get the PDF to your that shows this work flow to turn your finished part into an iPart along with the step process to get a part for each forge and machine process.

Since that is a simple part, I would -

Model the forged part.

Derive component the forged part into a new file.

Add the machining features to the derived component.

Do the drawings.

An alternative method

since you already have the machined part

derive the machined part into a new part.

Delete Face with Heal option to remove holes (and other cut features)

Add material where/if needed.

Do the drawings.
