How to get the model size (solid geometry)

Question

HI，In the parts module, how to get the maximum size（L，W，H） of the parts as the function of the automatic work piece in the mold module?I tried using the model checking function in the Overall Size Model parametersHowever, it is not ideal, the size is often not the maximum size of the physical geometryTKS~! (No related modules are installed)（Could not understand this parameter）This thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

You are correct, the Overall Size from ModelCheck isn't good for anything.

Not sure about your version of Pro/E but for Creo Parametric 2.0 template models for automatic workpiece are stored in <install_idr>\Creo 2.0\Common Files\<datecode>\text\ncmdl_data

I'd start adding some new parameters and relations to those template models. Defining of all of those relations is pretty intimidating as there is no rtos() function and you might require a param that holds values such as this 11.15x45x105.4 maybe because of the usage within drawing repeat region tables.
