Assembly parts when creating mechanism

Hello,
Is it possible to create mechanical connections or mates between parts when creating a mechanism in RS, for example a coaxialité or a coincidence between two parts?
I created an assembly of my tool using SOLIDWORKS (3 parts with 6 mates), is there a specific format supported by RS which keeps the connections created in Solidworks?
Thanks for helping.

  • Hello,
    No, it is not possible to create "mates" in RobotStudio as you do in for example SolidWorks, and it´s not possible to keep the mates/connections created in SolidWorks.

    The tools you primarily use in RobotStudio to position objects correct is "Place", "Set Position" and "Rotate". When you do this, it´s important to have the correct "Snap Mode" and "Selection Level" active.
