How to remove the weight of a part without changing part parameters & density from an assembly?

Hello

Yes, you can do it using flexibility:

1. Make the component Flexible if it is not already

2. Add these parameters to Varied Items and give these values:

   PRO_MP_SOURCE: PARAMETERS

   PRO_MP_ALT_AREA: 0

   PRO_MP_ALT_MASS: 0

   PRO_MP_ALT_VOLUME: 0

3. The weight, area and volume of the components will not be included when calculating the mass properties of the assembly

You can select the component and run mapkey com0 to do this:
