Optimization – Part Cuilling

Part Culling

Removing small parts can ‘de-clutter’ the model and reduce the triangle count.

• Bounding Box Fraction: Diagonal (Value 0.01 - 1.0)

  • Take the largest diagonal of a part’s bounding box and that for the entire assembly. If the part’s value divided by the assembly’s is less than the specified value then the part is removed.

• Bounding Box Fraction: Volume (Value 0.01 - 1.0)

  • Take the volume of a part and divide it by the volume of its’ bounding box. If the value is less than the specified value then the part is removed.

• Bounding Box Fraction: Length (Value 0.01 - 1.0)

  • Take the largest side of a part’s bounding box. If the value is less than the specifed value then the part is removed

• Inclusion File

  • List known parts or subassemblies to be included or excluded from the resultant model. Select the file from the list.

  • See Manage > Advanced Processing Settings for details on this.
