The 3DEXPERIENCE Platform is a business experience

platform available on premise and in a public or private
cloud to enable our clients to create delightful
EXPERIENCES for their ultimate customers or
consumers

It provides software solutions for every organization

in your company – from marketing to sales to
engineering – that help you, in your value creation

Architecture

In the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform, all product data are managed and contained in a centralized database on a
server. This database contains the physical data, logical structure and requirements of your products and
parts.
You can work with the data without having to copy or store them on your local computer. This simplifies the
process of data management and facilitates collaboration and sharing of information.

required
When attempting to delete an object’s
associativity from another object, you
must be in the proper context
You must be at a level higher that the A

one in which the object was defined in

order to remove it

For example:
A. When at the shape representation
level, the material cannot be deleted
B. When at the part level, the material
associativity can be deleted
The material’s folder is directly under
the 3D Part but not under the 3D
Shape representation. Hence, to delete B
the material from the 3D Part, the 3D
Part must be the object of context

in the Lifecycle section
This is similar to the Save as New

corner is normally referred to as a fillet.

➢ Isolate :

• A point can be isolated in order to cut the links it has with the geometry used to create it.
• It separates the parent and children parts so that we can perform functions like edit, delete etc.

Example : How to isolate a geometric element.

This is just an exmaple, any part can be isolated.
To perform this task, create a plane using an offset of 20mm from a pad's face.

➢ Isolate :
Example : How to isolate a geometric element

[Link] | © Dassault Systèmes

Step 3: Right click on the plane and isolate.

Center of Excellence for Aerospace and Allied Industries| PARALA MAHARAJA ENGINEERING COLLEGE | Confidential
 L4.125

➢ Isolate :

• Isolate can be done for any geometry in order to separate parent and childen parts.
• In order to break all absolute axis links (support, origin and orientation links) with the 3D or to solve update
errors. Only the 3D position will be kept, to ensure that the sketch does not move. In an Isolated option, the
sketch support, origin and orientation cannot be defined.
[Link] | © Dassault Systèmes

• Once the plane is isolated the geometrical link between the plane and the face is no longer maintained. This
means that the face is no longer recognized as the reference used to create the plane, and therefore, you can
no longer edit the offset value.
• The way the plane was created is ignored. This can be checked by double-clicking the plane: the Plane
Definition dialog box that appears indicates that the plane is of the explicit type.

• Draft :

Drafts are defined on molded parts to make them easier to remove from molds. The characteristic elements
are:
• Pulling direction: this direction corresponds to the reference from which the draft faces are defined.
[Link] | © Dassault Systèmes

• Draft angle : this is the angle that the draft faces make with the pulling direction. This angle may be
defined for each face.
• Parting element : this plane, face or surface cuts the part in two and each portion is drafted according to
its previously defined direction.
• Neutral element : this element defines a neutral curve on which the drafted face will lie. This element will
remain the same during the draft. The neutral element and parting element may be the same element.

There are two ways of determining the objects to draft: either by explicitly selecting the object or by selecting the
neutral element, which makes the application detect the appropriate faces to use.

[Link] the bottom row, select the “Assembly” tab.

We can see that on the fix icon in the model tree there is a red coloured refresh icon.

The red refresh marking indicates that the constraint needs to be updated. This can be achieved with
the update icon.

“Prismatic” joint.

The Block may be positioned in the middle of

the track. For convenience, it is better if the
Block is at the end of the track. One way to
achieve this is to create a constraint between
the corners of the block and track. This
constraint, however, will be deleted;
otherwise, it becomes a “Cylindrical” joint
preventing movement of the Block.

7)The presence of the “Cylindrical” joint is

confirmed in the tree. As indicated earlier, this
“Cylindrical” joint must be deleted. The sole
[Link] | © Dassault Systèmes

purpose of the constraint was to position the
