Hello,

 

I have an assembly with multiple contacts, and I want to automatize this task (definition of bonded contacts). Anybody could help me to know how is it implemented on Hyperworks 2019? Thank you.

    Hi,

     

    TIE contact can be automatically created using tools>contact browser>AutoContact

    Even though the GUI has changed the functionality is similar.

    Hello Hyperman,

     

    Thank you very much for your quick reply, but I can't find the Auto-Contact option on the Hyperworks 2019 (what you say is for Hypermesh). Anyway, I can't find the Auto-Contact option nor on the Utility Brower nor on the BC/Create/Autocontact as stated on the pdf link that you sent me. Also, when I go to Tools/Contact Browser, I can't find the AutoContact option. Could you please tell me how I can proceed? Thank you very much.

    Hi,

    In the first image (from the above post), by clicking on 'contact' you can get the contact browser (attached is the screenshot)
