      Independent points created in Spaceclaim are not imported in Mechanical. Points on a solid body face or surface body, or on the edge of a solid or surface in Spaceclaim only come over to Ansys Mechanical as vertices . They won’t translate when on a beam. Beams must be split at the location. Or a spot weld point can be transferred but a spot weld must mate two bodies.
