Understanding and applying assembly features
Assembly features refer to applying features such as extruded cuts and fillets within the assembly file rather than the part file. In this, the features will be recorded and applied on the assembly file and listed in the assembly file design tree without impacting the design of the original part. In this section, we will learn about assembly features and how to apply them.
Understanding assembly features
We can look at assembly features as standard features that are stored in the assembly file rather than the part file. This makes them unique for delivering particular messages or design intent. To apply assembly features, we need to be working in the assembly file. Compared to the features we can apply as we are modeling parts, assembly features are limited and only include subtractive features. These include extruded cuts, swept cuts, revolved cuts, fillets, and holes. By default, assembly features do not propagate to the parts; however...
