attach an imported geometry to a robot

candy

Hi,friends,I have  encountered a problem:I have imported a geometry,when I attach it to the robot,but I then find that the geometry is not posited in the center of the flange.It is so puzzled and disappointed.Then I find the geometry is not  positioned in the robot(0,0,0).Is this the reason?

 

But can there  be some solutions?Would somebody encount the same as me?How do you to do?Thank you sharing!

you can set the local origin of the import geometry before you attach it and then it will attach as you expect.

or before you export it from your cad program, move the point you want to attach to 0,0,0.
