Hello,

is it possible to parameterize the properties of the Solid Model in Ansys ACP? I want to parameterize the extrusion method, but I cannot choose the Solid Model ans Object in the parameter.

When I enter the ID of the Solid Model I get the error: The Object field is not correctly filled. Please review it and try again.

Thank you for your help

Can you provide more details? If possible include an image showing the step that produced the error

I want to use the Solid Model that can be created in ACP Pre in a Parameter, but I can not select the Solid Model.

Hello,

Unfortunately, parametrizing the Solid Model isn’t natively supported. However, you can use the “Unbound Input” parameter type in combination with a Script to achieve the same effect.

The screenshot below illustrates how this is done:

 

• The parameter “Warping_Limit” exposes a parameter which can be set from Ansys Workbench
• The script “Script.1” uses this parameter to set the warping limit on the solid model “SolidModel.1”

 

For further details on using unbound inputs and scripts to parametrize ACP models, please refer to section “8.4 Parametrization 2” of the ACP Tutorials.

The ACP Python scripting interface is described in the following documentation: https://developer.ansys.com/docs/acp-scripting-2024-r1/contents.md
