Advanced Part Modeling Flashcards

Which Split option divides a single solid into two separate solid bodies within the same part?

Answer: Split Solid

Split Solid divides a solid into two bodies in a multi-body part.

In a multi-body part, which command is used to push solid bodies into separate part files and an assembly?

Answer: Make Components

Make Components creates individual part files from selected bodies and can place them in an assembly.

Which command performs Boolean join, cut, or intersect operations between solid bodies in the same part?

Answer: Combine

Combine applies join, cut, or intersect between a base body and toolbodies.

When using Derive to bring a part into a new part file, what happens by default if the source part changes?

Answer: The derived part updates to reflect the changes

Derived components stay linked and update when the source changes unless the link is broken or suppressed.

Which Derive option creates a mirrored version of the source part, such as a left-hand version of a right-hand part?

Answer: Mirror part with a selected plane

Derive lets you mirror the part about a selected origin plane to create an opposite-hand version.

What does an iPart allow you to create from a single part file?

Answer: A table-driven family of part variations

An iPart uses a table of parameters and features to generate a family of part members.

What is the primary purpose of an iFeature?

Answer: To save a frequently used feature for reuse in other parts

An iFeature stores one or more features with their sketches and parameters for reuse in other parts.
