AutoAssemble Examples
Worked AutoAssemble examples: file-driven model trees, schematic connector assembly, and backshells onto connectors.
These examples show common AutoAssemble jobs after you know how to run the dialog. The Creo steps that are the same every time are on Assemble from a File. Column and format details are on AutoAssemble Files.
Example | What it shows | Typical file |
|---|---|---|
Build a nested assembly from a BOM-style table, creating missing models when needed. | CSV or Excel with | |
Place connectors into an existing assembly from schematic connectivity, usually onto locating CSYS in a skeleton. | Routing File ( | |
Mate a backshell onto a designated connector in the same assembly (or assembled earlier in the same file). | CSV or Excel with mate-to and interface (or CSYS) columns |
JSON cannot build a LEVEL tree and cannot express mate-to component or port, so the tree and backshell examples use CSV or Excel.
In this section
File-Driven Model Tree — nested assembly from a BOM-style table.
Schematic Assembly — connectors from schematic or routing data.
Assembling Backshells to Connectors — mate a backshell onto a designated connector.
