ACP Assembly Modeling 4 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: Which BOM structure hides a component from the BOM while promoting its child components to the parent level?
- Phantom (Correct answer)
- Reference
- Inseparable
- Purchased
Correct answer: Phantom
Phantom components are not listed, but their children appear one level up.
Question 2: A component with BOM structure set to Reference is:
- Shown only in Parts Only view
- Excluded from the BOM and from mass properties (Correct answer)
- Treated as a purchased item
- Listed in the BOM with zero cost
Correct answer: Excluded from the BOM and from mass properties
Reference components are for context only and are excluded from BOM and mass calculations.
Question 3: Which BOM structure is appropriate for a weldment that cannot be disassembled without destroying it?
- Phantom
- Reference
- Normal
- Inseparable (Correct answer)
Correct answer: Inseparable
Inseparable designates assemblies, like weldments, that cannot be taken apart.
Question 4: Which BOM views are disabled by default and must be enabled in the Bill of Materials dialog?
- Model Data only
- Parts Only only
- Structured and Parts Only (Correct answer)
- Model Data and Structured
Correct answer: Structured and Parts Only
Structured and Parts Only views are disabled by default; Model Data is always available.
Question 5: When using Mirror Components, which option creates new mirrored files, typically with a _MIR suffix?
- Copy
- Exclude
- Reuse
- Mirror (Correct answer)
Correct answer: Mirror
The Mirror status generates new mirrored part files.
Question 6: When using Copy Components, choosing Reuse for a component will:
- Place another occurrence of the existing file (Correct answer)
- Create a new file with a new name
- Skip the component entirely
- Create a mirrored version
Correct answer: Place another occurrence of the existing file
Reuse inserts an additional occurrence of the same file rather than creating a new one.
Question 7: Where does an assembly feature, such as an extrude cut made in the assembly environment, exist?
- Only in the assembly file (Correct answer)
- In a new derived part
- In the Content Center library
- In each affected part file
Correct answer: Only in the assembly file
Assembly features modify geometry only in the assembly and do not change the part files.
