change index of use

[RONARDO]

hello to all and well found;
in my company we use kits composed of for example 2 dowels each; can you change the index of use of a part, so that when you insert it into a set we have an index of use of 0.5 as in my case? so doing I would get a correct bom while inserting the 3d of the 2 dowels. wait for your feedback

hi, you can deal with the problem in different ways:
1st methodin the part of the dowel you have to go to add two custom properties

se_assembly_quantity_override = 0
se_assembly_quantity_string = pz;1

In this way, you will be able to go to the properties of the needle and for each to enter 0.5 as a custom quantity.
2nd methodcreate a set that contains the 2 dowels of the kit without any relationship; insert the axieme and make it adjustable to place the dowels where you want.


p.s.: I prefer the second method

Thank you, but I have 2 questions,
- the first on the first method, then when I go to insert the part into a second assembly again calculates 0.5 or resumes 1?
- the second on the second method, once you create this assembly as I make it so free? I have a memory hole on this operation

with regard to the second method it is enough to leave the parts inside the axieme without any relationship (not even that of earth).

you can combine the first method with the second, and activate the option "disperse this together with insertion"; in this way dragging the assemblies into a set will be dispersed in 2 dowels with already the amount of 0.5 set (to test)

create the assembly of the two dowels without binding them one to another (for example, bind the first to the ground or to the planes and the other let him free to float in space). then when you insert it into the assieme father you must place the pair of dowels by binding it to the geometry of the father using the first dowel. made this make the assembly of the two dowels "adjustable adjustable" and ties the second dowel. I also use this method, the typical case is that of the feet of the pneumatic cylinders without stem.
