CMM Pro/E Assembly Migration issue - cannot create constraints
CMM Pro/E Assembly Migration issue - cannot create constraints IR Number: 1938509
Priority: 1
Business Urgency: No
GTAC Urgency: No
PR Matrix:
a) The problem can be reproduced consistently with the data provided.
c) The error will lead the customer to incur significant re-work costs. For example, repetition of design, analysis, machining, workflow, etc.
============================
Problem Description:
============================
Migration data consist of one single assembly with several components.
Migration of the entire structure works quite well.
Parts are migrated as BREP only.
There are 4 assembly out of 22 constraints that cannot be created
=============================================================================
NX Versions: NX 8.5.1.3
Managed Mode: No
Creo elements/pro 5.0 (Pro/E Wildfire 5) m130
CMM 8.5.1.081
(File: 1938509.zip) Containing:
============================
Migrated NX data: 4101_failed_constraints_01_nx
Customer Pro/E data: 4101_failed_constraints_01_proe
PDF: CMMMigration_AssemblyConstraints_IR1938509.pdf
CMM Scratch Folder with logfiles from migration: 4101_CMMScratch
Work Around: unknown
============================
Steps to Duplicate:
============================
Migration was done with CMM 8.5.1 in unmanaged (CMM Solo) environment.
All CMM options were set to default values except the following settings:
o Geometry migration --> Brep Mode
o Remigration --> disabled
o Cleanup Scratch Files --> None
Download the provided data file from GTAC (File: 1938509.zip)
o Import data within Teamcenter (optional)
o Open Pro/E and load assembly 4101049a.asm.93
o Migrate assembly to NX using CMM Teamcenter or CMM Solo
o Migration results look quite OK, only the assembly report shows some failures (red status)
o When inspecting the assembly report details 4 constraints are highlited in red. These constraints could not be migrated (failed to create assembly constraint() (GEO_CST_xxx) .
o Load migrated assembly 4101049A.93.prt into NX. There you will see no indication about the missing constraints unless you open again the report for the assembly.
o The CMM Report shows 4 constrain error
