3DEXPERIENCE - Use the Dressup Command within a Mechanism Representation

November 29, 2023 Mark Potrzebowski

In this video I take a look at how to use the Dressup command within a Mechanism Representation on a skeleton model. The Dressup command can be very helpful when a company is dealing with a product line of similar products that mechanically work the same way, but instead of creating 20 fully defined kinematic simulations for each product, one Skeleton product model can be built. Once the skeleton model is working, the Dressup command allows the user to link finished product models to the working skeleton in seconds and the movement the skeleton provides is transferred to the production models. This can be replicated over and over again for quick results.
