Working on Assembly Components

*From my memo I was taking during my CATIA job training course in the Okinawa island, Japan
SECTION 1
構成要素の削除 Deleting Components
Right-click on the component to delete and select "Delete". Click "OK" in the "Delete" dialog box.
Note: The "Delete all children" option makes it possible to delete the assembly constraints that have been created with the component. (This option has been turned OFF by default.)
SECTION 2
構成要素のコピー、貼り付け Copying/Pasting Components
Right-click on the component to copy, and select "Copy". Right-click on the assembly in the tree where you want to paste the component. Pasted component will be placed at the same location where the original exists. Whether the constrains will also be copied & pasted can be controlled by the CATIA settings. Go to Tools > Options > Mechanical Design > Assembly Design > Constraints (tab), and find the "Paste components" area that has the following options.
A) Without the assembly constraints
Assembly constraints will NOT be copied when the components are copied & pasted.
B) Without the assembly constraints after a Copy
Assembly constraints will be copied only when the components are copied & pasted.
C) Without the assembly constraints after a Cut
Assembly constraints will not be copied only when the components are cut & pasted.
D) Always with the assembly constraints
Assembly constraints will be copied when the components are cut & pasted, as well as when they are copied & pasted.
SECTION 3
「パターンの再利用」の機能を利用した構成要素のコピー Copy Components With The "Re-use Pattern" Functionality
1) Click on the "Reuse Pattern" icon and check the "generated constraints" option.
2) Select the pattern you want to re-use from the specification tree, such as "Rectangular Pattern.1" or "Circular Pattern.1".
3) Select the component to copy, and click the OK button.
SECTION 4
構成要素の複数インスタンス化 Multi-instantiating Components
Components will be instantiated in the specified direction, with the specified spacing.
1) Click on the "Multi Instantiation" icon and select a component you want to multi-instantiate.
2) Enter the number of instances and the spacing (mm).
3) Define the reference element to indicate the direction of the instantiation, and click the OK button.
Note: The "Fast Multi Instantiation" command can be used when instantiating other components
with the same condition.
SECTION 5
対象による構成要素のコピー Copying Components Symmetrically
Components (Parts or Products) can be created with the "Mirror" functions. Use the "Symmetry" command and define conditions in the "Assembly Symmetry Wizard" window.
Components (Parts or Products) can be created with the "Translate" functions. Use the "Symmetry" command and define conditions in the "Assembly Symmetry Wizard" window, but check the "Translation of new instance" option.
SECTION 6
構成要素の置き換え Replacing Components
Components can be replaced with another component with the following process.
1) Right-click on the component to replace, and select Components > Replace Component.
2) The "File Selection" window will be opened. Select the component to replace with.
3) The "Impacts On Replace" window will be displayed. Make sure "Yes" is checked for "Do you
want to replace all the instances of the selected element?" shown in the window. Click OK, and the existing component will be replaced with the new component.
Check the constraints status in the tree. If the constraints are lost in the assembly data, a warning mark is displayed on the tree icon. User needs to re-define the constraints. Double-click on the constraints in the tree and reconnect the elements.
SECTION 7
構成要素および拘束のリオーダ Reordering Components/Constraints
A) 構成要素をリオーダするには Reordering Components
Select the "Graph tree Reordering" icon.
B) 拘束をリオーダするには Reordering Constraints
Right-click on the constraint in the tree and select ***.object > Reorder constraints.
C) 拘束のグループ分け Grouping Constraints
Constraints can be grouped using the "Group in new set" function. Multi-select the constraints
and right-click to select Selected object > Group in new set.
付記：
自分が沖縄(ここの出身というわけではないです)でCATIA講習を受けた際にとっていたノートを元に、おおまかな知識を書き出してみたのだけれども、久しぶりに見直してみて、随分いろんなことを習ったものだと改めて思うに到り、中には今になって、なるほどそういうことだったか、と合点のいくものもあったりで、復習をしてみる意味においても、当時のメモやノートを掘り起こすのは悪くないかと思い、書いてみた次第です。
