Update of mass value based on parameter

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

 

I'm currently preparing very simple family part of valve which i'd like to publish as content center part. Trouble is that it's really very simple 3D model which doesn't contain all details so mass of such a part is different from real value. Anyway, i know real mass from datasheet of that valve and it's included in my parameters. Is there any way how to assign the real value into iproperties of my content center part?

 

Thanks for your answers.

you can enter in your own value which will overwrite the actual value of the model  based on its volume & density.

Go into your iproperties physical tab, click in the mass box, and delete what is there, a hand will appear to the right,

and you can type in your own value.

I didn't express myself 100% clear...my fault 🙂 This family part will be published into 14 valves (from DN15 to DN300). In case i'll enter mass into family part manually than all content center parts will have exactly same value, which is wrong.
