- In this video, I show you how to make a flexible assembly from a .STEP file in Solidworks 2018. This is a really useful trick for any project that uses files downloaded from a manufacturer's website, and it applies to several other file formats as well.
Be sure to leave your questions or comments below! If there's anything you'd like to see in upcoming videos, please let me know.
Thanks for watching!

you are a legend. your video saved me from rebuilding an entire assembly with 40 parts from the ground up.
Thank you
That's great, I'm glad I could help! Thanks for the feedback.
This was a high value video. Especially the "save as", while bodies are hidden, I did not know about this.
I'm glad you found this helpful. Thanks for the feedback!
It was exactly what I needed !! Thank you so much !!
I'm glad to hear that! Thanks for watching!
helped a lot, thanks bro!

thanks a lot
lOVE U, THANK YOU SO MUCH :(
At 1:25 when you placement the first part. You don't need to pick the coordinate.
Just choose the part then pick the "green check mark" on top left. It will place the first part where it belongs like you build in the model...
Good catch, thank you for pointing that out!

I learn that from a lady works for Hawkridge systems.
Sometimes it helps a lot.
What would be the next step to building this product if you didn't want to use 3D imaging
All components for a product like this would need to be CNC machined. There are also components not shown in this particular model, such as piston, linear bearings and seals, which would need to be carefully designed with the appropriate tolerances to ensure a good fit and seal. Typically, you will need to provide a machine shop with 3D models of each individual component as well as detailed 2D drawings or prints.
What if there is step files inside a step files?
If a .step file has been re-saved or exported as a .step file, it's still just a .step file. This method still works as long as there are multiple imported bodies to work with.
