   Ah sorry I didn't try it with FBX. Apparently, importing .fbx does not return the object name the way .ma does so maybe hard coding the object name is the way to go.

   Because you're hard coding the bolt name "Bolt_01" but when you rename you are renaming "nut_01"What you need to do is to capture the actual name generated with the importstring $current_bolt = `file -import "E:/Bolt_01.ma"`; And use $current_bolt for move/constraint/etc.
