Large Assembly Performance Issue

Is it take long time to rebuilt the assembly if using many mates in assembly?

Yes, a large number of mates can slow down an Assembly. Using sub-assemblies is a good way to avoid this issue.

Hi Glenn Schroeder,
Thanks for your kind reply, Is it possible to assemble sub-assemblies without mate?, Is there have any other method?

Thanks,
Kalai

  I have seen really large companies that will mate components then fix the components (parts or sub-assemblies) and delete/suppress the mates. That was a different CAD system though. You would be better served to learn how lightweight, Large Assembly Mode and SpeedPak can help you.

  If you work at the assembly level and create the sub-assemblies there, you can mate by using the fixed position of the sub assembly.
