Cutting optimization 2023

Hello, when using the 2023 version by clicking "retrieving values from a solidworks table". Cutting Optimization does not take lengths in the welded parts BOM. The lengths that are included in the input of project elements are the predefined profile lengths.

Kind regards

Good evening

There is another way to import elements in a much more secure way:

By doing this, you get the information of the elements directly in your 3D, no need to go through a drawing and an element table.

In addition, if in the table you don't show the cutting angles (if there are any...) then you lose them!
Taking directly on the 3D model, no loss.

I hope this answer can help you out.

Good night.

Unfortunately, this method does not allow you to keep the reference points of the profile layout

Hello, to retrieve both the complete section information (as on the 3D) and the markings, go through the 3D import function, and select the drawing.
The tool will retrieve the main view of the active sheet and its associated BOM, it will be able to assign the correct numbering.

Thank you, on the other hand I can only generate a PDF that integrates the markers.
