The Auto Size<\/strong> option within Make Smart Component<\/strong> can place and size a smart component. By selecting a cylindrical face as a mate reference, the diameter is read by the smart component and is used as a trigger for selecting an appropriate configuration based on a range of diameters.<\/p>\n

Because it is based on cylindrical references, only shaft-type parts can utilize this option.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s use the Auto Size option on an end cap for shafts of different diameter.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n
      \n
    1. Create a shaft and an end cap designed to fit the outer diameter. Open both the parts.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      2. Create different configurations (3\/8\u201d, 1\/2\u201d, 3\/4\u201d and 1\u201d ) for the End cap which will drive the inner diameter. Save and close the part.<\/p>\n

          \n

          4. Select Configurator Table<\/strong> and enter the values for Minimum and Maximum diameter for different configurations.<\/p>\n

          \"\"<\/p>\n

          5. Open an assembly containing pipes of different standard sizes at various angles.<\/p>\n

          \"\"6. Insert the End cap , drag and drop onto the cylindrical face of the pipes. The required configuration will be selected based on the diameter.<\/p>\n
