"This mate is over defining the assembly. Consider deleting some of the over defining mates"
or
"This mate cannot be solved. Consider:
-
Deleting this mate.
-
Moving the assembly closer to the desired solution with dragging.
-
Adding more mates to further define the assembly.
-
Changing the mating scheme."
|
Potential causes:
-
Another mate in the assembly is attempting to violate this mate (the offending mate displays the symbol).
-
The mate and an already-existing distance or angle mate are redundant to each other.
-
The mate is attempting to locate a component that is fixed.
|
Look for other mates with the symbol. If found, investigate those first because they often cause this error.

Various messages; For example:
"One of the entities of this mate is suppressed, invalid, or no longer present."
|
The mate is dangling because one of the entities (face, edge, plane, etc.) is no longer in the model.
This is generally caused by editing, suppressing, or deleting a part feature, or replacing a part with another part that is missing the mated feature.
Suppressing an entire part does not cause this error.
|
If a similar entity is available, edit the mate and select the new entity, or useReplace Mated Entities.
Otherwise, delete the mate and create a different mate to perform the same function.
