Design Table Configurations

A design table allows you to build multiple configurations of parts or assemblies by specifying parameters in an embedded Microsoft Excel worksheet.

To use design tables, you must have Microsoft Excel installed on your computer.

Parts

You can control the following items in a part design table:
  • Dimensions and suppression state of features and size of Hole Wizard holes.
  • Configuration properties including part number in a bill of materials, derived configurations, equations, sketch relations, materials, and custom properties.

Assemblies

You can control the following parameters in an assembly design table:
  • Components – suppression state, referenced configuration, fixed or floating position.
  • Assembly features – dimensions, suppression state, size of Hole Wizard holes.
  • Mates – dimensions of distance and angle mates, suppression state.
  • Configuration properties – part number and display in a bill of materials (when used as a subassembly), derived configurations, equations, sketch relations, custom properties, display states.
