Occurrences of parts or bodies within the assembly modeling environment are local to the active assembly. So, these internal components live within the assembly file; part files are not created on disk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This makes it ideal for representing supplier assemblies where you are not concerned with the separate parts they contain. Multiple internal components can be edited together. They also behave just like regular components and it\u2019s possible to define assembly relationships in the normal manner. The full file structure can be designed and then published if and when necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Just right-mouse click on an internal component to assign it a material. You can also hover your mouse over a component in the pathfinder to see what material is applied in the tooltip. This new assembly modeling functionality works with synchronous or ordered modeling and can be used within the part and sheet metal modelling environments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, a new <a href=\"https:\/\/solidedge.siemens.com\/en\/solutions\/products\/3d-design\/assembly-modeling-and-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">component finder<\/a> puts intuitive search of assembly components at your fingertips with auto-complete suggestive filters, speeding the process of locating parts.
