Question

Merging parts in assembly

I'm attempting to merge a series of parts in an assembly.

I have assembled all the .prt in the .asm and all parts are fully constrained.

I have then assembled a blank .prt into the assembly. I then follow the procedure: Component dropdown > Component operations > Merge > Blank .prt in model tree > Ok > Parts to be merged in model tree > Done.

The blank .prt which I have attempted to merge the existing parts into then fails to regenerate.

I have checked that all relevant files are using the same units from File > Prepare > Model Properties.

What should I do to resolve the problem?

Thanks.

    May be multiple reasons for the merge failure.

    • Try to merge one part at a time and see which part fails, so you can diagnose that part.
    • Try to match the accuracy of the failed parts and the new part.
    • Check if there are any Geom Checks and try to fix them if existing.
