Hi,
I need to get the COG coordinate of part with respect to assembly origin in drawing.
For consider an assembly as shown bellow

In drawing file, I need to make table with part name, weight, Coordinates of center of gravity with respect to the main assembly(X,Y,Z). how to get it?

This post answers this.

 

**Edit** Once you get the parameters created, you can use the parameters in a table on the drawing.

Hi,

please describe how you get the COG coordinate of the part now.

Also replay uploaded video.

Hi,
Think there are 100 components in my assembly.Is there any automated way where we will get the COG in terms of X,Y,Z in drawing file in table.

Hi,

 

I hope it is possible to automate table creation. Below you can find my idea how to do this. Unfortunately the resulting table is not parametric - if you update assembly then table does not update automatically. Also preparing automation procedure is time consuming.

 

step 1.]

Create file containing list of component names.

 

step 2.]

Generate trail file which generates mass properties .m_p file for every component from the above mentioned list.

 

step 3.]

Start Creo, open assembly and play above mentioned trail file.

 

step 4.]

Create application which extracts requested information from .m_p files and put it into .csv file

 

step 5.]

Run above mentioned application.

 

step 6.]

Start Creo, open drawing and create table from above mentioned .csv file.
