Exploded Assembly Icon

 Explode an assembly

The exploded assembly function helps you to easily create exploded assembly views.

You can quickly move components using three different transformation methods applied to the components:

  • Linear - All components move in one direction
  • Radial - All components move out from a central axis
  • Spherical - All components move out from a central point.


 

 Type
  • Linear
    The linear type transforms the parts of the assembly in a straight line following the selected axis.
  • Radial
    The radial type transforms the parts of the assembly in a circular direction around the selected axis starting from the coordinate system origin.
  • Spherical 
    The spherical type transforms the parts of the assembly in a spherical direction around the coordinate system origin.
