how to assemble two parts based on distance

[psharma-3]

Hi,

I am having a problem while assembling fabrication parts. I want to know how to assemble two parts based on distance.  I want to define 2-3 distance atleast.  Please help.

You can use the Distance constraint to assemble the two parts away from a distance. you can select a plane or a surface.

In CREO 2 you can also use distance from a line, axis, point & CSYS.

In Order to make two parts successfully constraint, you may need to define three constraints, you can define distance between three datums(X, Y, Z)

Assemble-part- User defined- distance- (select part1 surface/edge..) + (select part2 surface/edge..) (offset - distance value)...select new constraint repeat the instructions for two more datums
