Assembly
Free Part Translation
The XML EBOM Writer accommodates free parts that may be present with the top-level assembly node in the source file. Earlier, if the source file contained free parts (BRep data) and an assembly, the XML EBOM translator was able to translate only the assembly with the top-level assembly node in the source file. The free parts were ignored.
XML EBOM now generates an XML file containing an additional node named "SPAXFreeParts", which has all the free parts as its definition. This node is not a part of the source assembly.
If the input file contains only a free part (pure BRep data) and is translated by XML EBOM, the generated file will contain a single node, SPAXFreeParts. This single node will have the translated free part as its definition.
The name "SPAXFreeParts" indicates that it is a special node and that it is not a part of the source assembly.
Note: Free parts are only handled at the top-level node of the source assembly; free parts in subassembly nodes are ignored.
Limitations
Subassemblies do not support free parts.
