Not wanted imprints when exporting from SpaceClaim to Mechanical

      Hi, 

      I have this geometry in SpaceClaim: it is a screw+washer assembly with shared topology configuration. Clearly, there are no face imprint while in SpaceClaim:

       

       

      But after exporting this to mechanical, I get the shared faces imprinted, that makes sweep operation not possible:

       

       

       

      Does anybody know how to fix this problem?

      Thank you.

      Best regards

      Hi

      Imprints are generated via the shared topology – normally with these bolts you (very simple) show, we can sweep – try using multizone (leave default set.) on all the bolts as that should also do it.

      All the best

       

      Erik
