Creating an empty assembly

You can add an empty assembly to the Project Tree. No ArtCAM Model (.art) file is created along with the empty assembly, although you can associate a mesh with this.

To create an empty assembly in the Project Tree:

  1. In the Project panel, right-click the root Assembly or an assembly in the Project Tree, and then select New from the context menu.
  2. In the Project Tree, click beside the assembly in the Project Tree to display its associated items.

    A new assembly is created below the root Assembly or assembly , depending on which was originally selected, and this is named New Assembly by default.

    Note: To change the assembly's name, right-click the assembly and select Rename.
Note: The availability of this feature is license dependent.
