    The Autopitch tool is designed to create weld points at a predefined pitch distance. 

     

    The Autopitch tool is a dialog box with six inputs.  

    •The first input is the components to which you wish to automatically add connectors.

    •Search distance: The distance to consider between components.

    •Spot pitch distance: The distance between each connector.

    •Spot pitch end offset: The distance from the end of an edge or flange to the connector.

    •Distance from free edge: The distance from the free edge to the connector.

    •Feature angle: The feature angle is used to segregate the model into faces that are planar within its specified value.
