Generating production information

Besides the plate and profile geometric information, also logistical data is important for the CAM process. This data is stored in predefined fields in the construction database. The data of these logistical fields can be displayed in lists, reports, and sketches. Logistical fields can be created or modified by the user or will be automatically filled in by the system.

Usually, these logistical fields are defined when starting a new project.

This manual follows the workflow process (see the diagram below) to describe how the Production Information data is added to the logistical database and then presented in the form of lists and sketches.

The starting point for the creation of Production Information data is a 3D model of a block that contains all the modeled plate and profile parts. Any required cross-sections and sheet drawings should also have been created.
