Creo Shrinkwrap fail with error "Feature aborted. Geometry was overlapping."

Creo Shrinkwrap fail with error "Feature aborted. Geometry was overlapping."

 

I have set the absolute accuracy to 0.0001, still i face the issue.

Hi @vrajan 

 

Thank you for your question! 

 

I’d like to recommend to bring more details and context to your initial inquiry. For example:

  • What Shrinkwrap type are you using (e.g., surface subset, solid, automatic)? Have you tried different types?
  • Are there specific parts or features in the model that tend to cause the overlap? If so, what kind of geometry do they involve?
  • How complex is the assembly or part you're trying to shrinkwrap? Are there many small or tightly packed components?

Please add screenshot(s) to better understand what you are trying to do in your process.

I am trying to shrinkwrap an assembly containing quilts and solid parts

 

I tried all options (e.g., surface subset, solid, automatic)

Hi 

this error message lead to some articles that pertain to disparities in accuracy and overlapping geometry.

 

Here is what you can try :

  • Issue can be caused by different model accuracies for each of the components. Hence check that the accuracy is the same for all components and/or 
  • Check the geometry errors > Info > Geometry Cheks

I agree there may be model inaccuracies

 

But, if i save this model as "Shrinkwrap" part it creates a shrinkwrap part without failure

 

But, while i make it as a shrinkwrap feature, it fails. Is there any other simple way to rectify this?

Interesting.
What does Geometry Checks say?

"Feature aborted. Geometry was overlapping."

 

It says there are geometry overlapping, but creates a perfect "shrinkwrap part" instead i want shrinkwrap feature
