WT Part Structure

Hi Everyone,

Can't see the WT Parts Structure

Image 1: I have a 3 model, 1-ASM & 2-Component. (Structure: PO_A.ASM/P1_P.prt/P2.P.prt )

Image 2: I only select the main assembly & the 2nd component (P2_P.prt) to auto-associate with WT parts.

Image 3: I check the data into Windchill. (CAD+WT)

Image 4: Then after opening the 1st Component P1_P.prt auto-associate check in the wt part only in windchill.

In Images 5 & 6: 5 image I only see the one WT part main assembly, but in 6 image I can see the part with CAD data.

 

How we can resolve this,

Thanks in Advance,

Amiro

hi @Amirtharaj_K 

The build action is in the right click on a CAD in a workspace

For some additional information compare the CAD Structure to WTPart, it can help you to identify the reason.

btw from the Compare to Part Structure you can build multilevel structure

Hi @Amirtharaj_K 

If you just check-in WTPart duting association. then there is no propagation info from CAD to WTpart,

You need to use Build Associated Part function from workspace to correct the propagation.

Function is available in a right click menu on the CAD Part from workspace or from detail page action menu

CAD Part can not be check-outed

Hi Mr. Petr, Thanks for your replied.

You mean when we check in the data, enable 'Auto Associate Parts to CAD Documents' in the workspace, because I can't see it in the right click menu in WT. Please give me more details.

 

Regards,

Amir

Hello @Amirtharaj_K 

You need to click on the CAD Document the 3D model. 

 

If 3D Model is check-in and WTPart does not exist then the WTPart is automatically created and the build is done during an auto-association and the behavior depends on a preference configuration. 

 

if 3D model has been already checked in and WTPart does not exists, then the "manual" auto-association creates a wtpart with a link to 3Dmodel , but it does not build the attributes, visualization and structure. 

In this case you need to use the build association part
