SolidWorks2008在处理装配体的新增和改良工具

Managing Large Assemblies
SolidWorks 2008 gives you new tools to manage large assemblies. Simplified representations of assemblies help improve performance by letting you work with a subset of components loaded into memory. You can specify components to load when you open an assembly file through the Open dialog box using the Quick View option, which displays the assembly file in the graphics area (in an instant) and presents you with the Selective Open dialog box.

The Selective Open dialog box.

Using the Selective Open dialog box, you can select individual components or subassemblies (from the simplified FeatureManager design tree or the graphics area) to load into memory. When you click Open, only those components that you selected are displayed, the remaining components are hidden. SolidWorks also automatically creates a new Display State, so you can open the assembly again with the same parts shown.

To support simplified representations of assemblies, you now can make display states independent of all configurations, so all display states are available in all configurations. You can still link a display state to a specific configuration if desired.

Assembly Statistics and Analysis
In previous SolidWorks versions, the Assembly Statistics dialog box provided a basic rundown of the components and mates in your assembly file. This information now is reported in the AssemblyXpert, along with several other pieces of information that you can use.

The new AssemblyXpert Diagnostics dialog box.

The first section of the AssemblyXpert dialog box reports the number of documents (within the assembly file) that haven't been updated to the current SolidWorks release. This is important because files from previous releases can affect assembly performance until they are updated. To see a list of these files, click the Eyeglass icon. From this window, you can do several things, including save the list to a file, print the list directly, and copy it to the Clipboard. Better still, if you select one or more files from the list, they are highlighted in the graphics area and in the FeatureManager design tree. The Isolate button also becomes active. You can isolate the parts or even hide and suppress them all at once.

The next two sections of the AssemblyXpert dialog box report on performance. Depending on what Large Assembly Threshold is set at (Tools / Options / System Options / Assemblies), AssemblyXpert lets you know that performance would be improved if you turned it on. Click the icon in this section to do it for you.

The next section reports on mates in your assembly. The total number of mates is shown, and if you have certain mating conditions present, such as mating to assembly features or mates that reference component patterns, the AssemblyXpert warns you that these types of mates could affect performance. Click the Eyeglass icon to see the mates. Once again, you can save, print, and copy the list and select all of the reported mates for further action.
