EXPORT HELP

I need to export an assembly to our customer. The important thing is to export the assembly as a single entity. We don't want our customer to have the ability to dissect our assembly into its individual parts in order to build the product themselves.

I've tried both (STEP) and (IGES) formats, but haven't figured out how to create the exported file as a single entity.

Any advice?

Not familiar with Shrinkwrap. I tried it a few times, but the export still contained the master assembly with all the parts in it. Still possible for the customer to pick apart the assembly to study its components.

Maybe there's a setting I'm not using?

Hi,

You should try Merged Solid option.
