Simplifying assemblies
In this recipe, you will use the Simplify tool to create a simplified model of a complex assembly, reduce processing time, and protect intellectual property.
The advantages of using the Simplify tool in your workflows are as follows:
- Reduces the file size and complexity of large assemblies
- Reduces the opening times of complex assemblies
- Filters relevant design data
- Protects intellectual property by removing internal components
- Improves performance
The Simplify command enables you to create a part from an assembly by specifying the components and features you want to remove individually or by using one of the built-in presets within the Simplify tool.
