New Part

A Part is a single component of a larger assembly. Within the Assembly workbench, a part is either a part of the Part Design workbench, or a 3D entity whose geometry is contained in a model.

 

Select Insert arrowDCS New Part, or in the specification tree, select the desired component and click the CatiaNewPart_icon New Part icon. The command is also available in the Product Structure Tools toolbar.

If geometry exists in the assembly, the New Part: Origin Point dialog box is displayed, proposing two options to locate the part:

 

CatiaNewPartOriginPoint

 

Click Yes to locate the part origin point on a selected point, on another component for example.

Click No to define the origin point of a component based on the origin point of the parent component.
