TriStar,  Shawn Schreckengost Topic - Assembly Flexible Components in Creo: Some Creo parts when assembled require a variation only in the context of the assembly. For example an O-ring might be compressed, a hose clamp might be tightened, or a tension spring might be expanded. While these parts can easily be modeled in the static state a different modeling approach is often required to enable variability. Whether it’s a simple dimensional change or a complex geometric change those assembly variations need to be considered. In this presentation we will explore how a simple tension spring will vary when assembled and how the required variabilities can be captured in the model. Debra Weich is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.Join Zoom Meetinghttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/81234988537?pwd=wGkXdQa1YOV0aAIQzwogb73ukKH8aB.1 Meeting ID: 812 3498 8537Passcode: 469429
