Part alignment when datums are not locked to one axis

Hello all,

How do I go about doing a part alignment on this part? The part is sitting on a 45 between Z and X axis and I can't remember how to lock it in i'm having severe brain fog. I'm used to parts being parallel to an axis which I have no problem aligning too. Just looking for the correct method. I dont use Xact.


Thanks!

  • For this alignment I am to Level to my 8 net points, Rotate between B1 and B2 and Origin B1 correct? No matter what I select i am getting errors. The surface below B2 is -0.3mm as it has no net support, i think this is throwing off my alignment.


    Maybe it's the vectors of your features - they must be roughly perpendicular to each other. for the alignment to work.
