In CATIA, the term "solid combine" typically refers to the process of combining or merging multiple solid bodies into a single body. This operation is commonly used in CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software to create complex geometries or perform certain modifications on the solid models.
To perform a solid combine operation in CATIA, you can follow these general steps:
Launch CATIA and open the assembly or part document that contains the solid bodies you want to combine.
Ensure that the workbench you are using is appropriate for solid modeling operations. The Part Design or Generative Shape Design workbenches are commonly used for this purpose.
In the "Specification Tree" or "Product Structure" window, select the solid bodies you want to combine. You can use the Ctrl key to select multiple bodies.
Once the bodies are selected, look for a toolbar or menu option that includes solid operations or Boolean operations. The specific location may vary depending on the version of CATIA you are using.
Choose the appropriate solid combine operation, such as "Union," "Merge," or "Add." This operation will combine the selected bodies into a single body.
Specify any additional parameters or options for the solid combine operation, if applicable. These parameters may include options for merging surfaces, healing gaps, or handling overlaps.
Confirm the operation to execute it. CATIA will perform the solid combine operation and merge the selected bodies into a single body.
After the combine operation is completed, you can further modify or edit the resulting combined body as needed.
It's important to note that the specific steps and options may vary slightly depending on the version of CATIA you are using, as well as the specific workbench or module within CATIA. It's recommended to consult the CATIA documentation or user guides for detailed instructions specific to your version and configuration.
