Scope out how your next design will be structured with Treehouse 2.
You can use an intuitive interface to plan out your assembly and name components
before you actually start designing.
Arrange Assemblies, Parts and Drawings
Drag visual representations of your SolidWorks templates to build a hierarchy
of assemblies, parts and drawings. Rearrange the documents by simply dragging
documents to their updated position in the tree. Fill in any custom properties
defined on the document templates.
Import and Edit Existing Assemblies
You can add parts and components into your assembly tree or modify existing
assembly structures, saving you the time of opening them in SolidWorks.
Each component element is outfitted with a preview image, which makes
Treehouse 2 a great tool for visualizing assemblies even if you don’t
plan on making changes.
Create New Configurations
Treehouse 2 provides a menu for managing configurations and the graphical
interface gives you a new way of understanding the complexities of multiple
configurations.
Export to SolidWorks Documents
Once you are satisfied with your layout, you can export the hierarchy to
SolidWorks documents. Treehouse will automatically create SW documents in the
location you specify and give you the option of backing up your existing
files before making permanent changes. You can now start filling in your
design or check the documents into your PDM system to be filled in later.
Save Treehouse 2 Layout
You can save the Treehouse structure to a file to be re-used or shared
with colleagues.
