Imported terminal block STEP file from Wurth Elektronik. JOIN does not seem to work with the whole component (leaving some of the bodies behind).

Imported terminal block STEP file from Wurth Elektronik.

Tried to use JOIN to insert the terminal block into another assembly but was not able to move the whole terminal block as a component (leaving some of the bodies of the terminal block behind).

Please advise on how to use imported STEP file as a whole component.

 

Thank you very much!

Can you Attach your original STEP file here?

Can you File>Export your *.f3d file to your local drive and then Attach it here to a Reply?

I went to the company website, you specified, and download a STEP file of a connector containing multiple components.  I then save it as a component and inserted it into an assembly.  The video shows you one way you can handle all of the multiple components so they stay together.
