    Hi,

    if the contact face is cylindrical or planar, I recommend to use Assembly|Align to project the nodes of one body on the other.

    If the interface is whether cylindrical nor planar, you can use:

    - Feature|Morph|Translate to move the face in the desired direction

    - use FEM/Move Node to offset a face to close a gap.
