Mechanically Welded Assembly: Problem of lengths in the list of welded parts

3D Design Volume Model

Hi all

I have a small problem currently to get out a flow list of welded parts, concerning 20x20 square tube panels.

As you can see on the screenshot, the lengths are good except for the length of more than 9m which takes up the total periphery of the frame, but I would obviously like to have 2 elements, (horizontal uprights and side uprights).

I can't find the solution, and on this forum not either.

Is it because the 4 pitches are in one and the same "group" in the creation of the mechanically welded assembly?

I hope someone has an answer. and thank you in advance.

Logically, if you have built your mechanical welding machine in one piece, you must have several welded parts

 

Jamb and traverse.

 

Right-clicked on the welded parts list to update it?

Hello

If your rep.4 is composed of only one body, it is normal that it is noted as such.

When editing your mechanically welded function, put your horizontal uprights in one group and your vertical uprights in another. Or uncheck the option that merges bodies.

Hello

Go back to your "Frame" group and uncheck the Merged box

Thanks to you, problem solved.

It was indeed a fusion problem that I had not seen. 
My list of soldered parts was up to date but instead of clicking on miter cutting I had probably clicked on the merge by mistake, and I added the 45° miter cuts afterwards manually at the four corners.

Now it's back to normal.

Thank you again.

Why do miter cuts manually????

 

PS: remember to check the best answer logically the first one having answered correctly in this case@fréderic
