Designation

Purpose

Comment

Position in coordinate system

Connecting point or Auxiliary point

Fitting point

in origin (0,0,0)

2, 3, 4 etc.,

unambiguous within the part

Connecting points or Auxiliary points

arbitrary

Connecting points should preferably be created via the Component connection function, or (for various components) by the insertion of nozzles.

Each component connection (and the fitting point, if it is an auxiliary point) needs to be located in a plane belonging to the part. It needs however not be located within the surface boundary.

Example

If the connecting point is located in the plane of the ring surface, the surface condition is fulfilled.

Caution: It would also be fulfilled if the point would be located in the same plane, but outside of the ring.

To assign an unambiguous orientation to a connection, a connecting point must not fulfil the surface condition for several surfaces at once.

Required attributes for entries into database or catalogue

Values need to be entered for at least the following attributes:

Attribute	Description
BENENNUNG	Designation of part
NORMBEZEICHNUNG	Standard designation of the part. An entry is mandatory, even if the part corresponds to no standard.

Attribute

Description

BENENNUNG

Designation of part

NORMBEZEICHNUNG

Standard designation of the part.

An entry is mandatory, even if the part corresponds to no standard.

When working with the HELiOS database, please pay attention to the correct classification!
