Subassembly Composer_ Build Error on Fill Areas

Hi,

 

I'm trying to build fill between my top links and the eg surface. I've tried using delta x to surface to create the vertical links and while this builds correct within subassembly composer, it does not build correctly in C3D. I've attached images of the previews in SC, as well as the C3D event viewer and the C3D solids output file.

 

Please assist.

Hallo @sobeshan.pillay ,

 

can you attach the *.dwg file as well?

 

Kind regards,

Matt

Hi @sobeshan.pillay
Looking at the subassembly quickly, the error refers to the point that is created when the decision P2.distancetosurface (EGSurface)> 0 is false. The error occurs because the distance from P1 to the surface is <0. To solve the error add a decision with the following condition P1.distancetosurface (EGsurface)> 0, and join the flow arrows as in the following image.

Hello again,

Reviewing the subassembly in detail, I leave you my observations / suggestions:
1. If you want the surface to be the lower limit of the shape, you must use the surface link and not the delta x on surface type point.
2. Try to use Auxiliary Points for control or reference points. After the decisions you can use them as visible point anchors.
3. Start with a check that all control points are below the surface and then build the optional conditions. It uses the logical operators AND / OR.
4. To create a point on the sloped links (E.g. point P39), use Auxiliary Links and Intersection Point. Then using the created point, add the links between the corresponding points. That way you won't have overlapping links.
5. Whenever possible, try to use the same links (link number) for creating a shape, whatever the decision.

 

Regards.
