Grouping of Parts
Follow these guidelines for grouping parts.
- Group parts in the following major categories:
- Upper body
- Cabin floor
- Powertrain
- Front End Airflow
- Chassis
- Outer parts
- Create sets based on each group.
- Select parts using assemblies or manually selecting them in the modeling window.
- Upper body and Cabin floor are combined to form a watertight cabin.
- Outer part selection also depends on design iterations. For example, if air dam changes between iterations, put it in outer parts rather than upper body.
- Save each group of parts in a separate .hm file. Create sets based on each
group.
- For modeling efficiency, create a separate session for each group.
