Using assemblies and assembly constraints to simulate the motion of mechanisms is covered in this tutorial. The example of a simple four-bar mechanism is used.

This Lesson teaches you some of the fundamentals of using Assemblies. You will learn how to visualize existing assemblies and how to assemble parts together.

Large assemblies have long model trees and include many standard parts such as screws, washers, studs, and so on. When you have to replace one of these parts in several locations, making your selections in the model tree is very complicated.

This tutorial by Keith Ebling of Baldwin Hardware Corporation illustrates how to use the ability to dynamically spin a component while defining its constraints in an assembly, and how to use the Fix Component functionality.

The Display Style option allows you to quickly manipulate the display of an assembly. This is true whether you are adding to the design of the assembly, making changes, or simply trying to understand the assembly contents.

Another convenient way to view an assembly is to utilize an Explode State. An Explode State allows you to save views of an assembly which demonstrate how it is to be assembled.

Learn how to calculate the weight of individual components, the combined weight of components assembled more than once, and finally the weight of the assembly as a whole; so as to insert it as a note in the drawing.

"Top-Down Design" refers to the method of placing critical information in a high-level location and then communicating that information to the lower levels of the product structure. As the design develops, more specific information becomes available and is incorporated into the design. By capturing the overall design information in one centralized location, it becomes easier to make significant design changes.

Pro/E`s assembly module allows parts to be grouped into assemblies or subassemblies to model a complete part or mechanism. In this tutorial, you will learn how to create assemblies, apply constraints between parts, change view properties of parts, and create exploded views. These techniques will be applied to a pulley mechanism.

Creating an assembly and the combination of parts to form an assembly is covered here. Assembly constraints are explained in detail. This tutorial also covers the generation of management information such as bills of materials.

It is a common occurrence for components to interfere with one another in your design. In some situations, this may even be intended. But when parts interfere, Pro/ENGINEER does not display warning messages.

A series of five lessons, with step-by-step instructions, from the basic commands to assembling Pro/E parts.
