CSWP, Segment 3: Interference Detection

We will take a look at interference detection in this post.  Download the assembly files we used in the flexible assemblies post Here.

Interference Detection is a built in feature in SOLIDWORKS.  Under the Evaluate Tab, you can find it as the yellow and green parts shown colliding.  When we click on it, we open the Interference Detection dialog box.  You can calculate the entire model or select components in your assembly.  If we click calculate with the entire assembly selected, we are shown that the Spacer and Cylinder Housing have an interference condition.






As always, if you have any questions, please ask them in the comments section.
