Browsers supply a great deal of view-related functionality by listing the parts of a model in a tabular and/or tree-based
format, and providing controls inside the table that allow you to alter the display of model parts.
A part is an engineering representation of a physical part, and a part assembly is a group of part assemblies and/or
parts. Part Instances, which are recognized from PDM, are automatically converted to Part Instances on import into
HyperMesh.
The part assembly can be saved as a self-contained binary file, which will include the part assembly based hierarchy
and attributes such as components, properties, and materials.
Create your own user defined representation. User defined representations are saved to the settings and will be available
in subsequent HyperMesh sessions.
All BOM-related information, including part/assembly hierarchy, part attributes, and representation information is organized
and displayed in the Part Browser.
Perform automatic checks on CAD models, and identify potential issues with geometry that may slow down the meshing
process using the Verification and Comparison tools.
Define Representations
Create your own user defined representation. User defined representations are saved to the settings and will be available in subsequent HyperMesh sessions.
Add Representations
Part representations can be added from external sources such as solver decks and HyperMesh binary files or from the Part Library.
Sync Metadata To PDM
Sync PDM metadata (PDM PID, PDM Thickness, PDM Material, and PDM MID) based on a selected part or part's metadata (PID, Thickness, Material, MID).
Save Representations
After importing a BOM and creating respective representations, you can save the representations locally or in the Part Library.
Delete Representations
Part representations can be deleted from the current HyperMesh session and from the Part Library.
