Inserting a SpeedPak

You can insert an assembly with a SpeedPak configuration into a higher-level assembly.

To insert a SpeedPak:

In the higher-level assembly, insert the subassembly by any of the following methods:
  • Use the Insert Component PropertyManager. Select the SpeedPak configuration under Configurations in the Open dialog box.
  • Drag from the File Explorer tab in the Task Pane.
  • Drag from the Design Library in the Task Pane.
  • Drag from File Explorer.
  • Ctrl + drag within the assembly to insert additional instances of existing components.

In the region surrounding the pointer, only the faces, bodies, reference geometry, sketches, and curves you selected for the SpeedPak are visible. They are the only items you can select for operations such as mating.

To see this behavior, check that the driver for your graphics card is up-to-date. See https://www.solidworks.com/sw/support/videocardtesting.html.
