Weldments - Configurations and Cut Lists
Weldments - Configurations and Cut Lists
(OP)
I occasionally create cut lists on drawings for weldment parts with multiple configurations. I've noticed that the cut list doesn't work well across configurations--if weldment properties are attached to a body, and that body is changed via configurations (for example, holes are either on or off) it doesn't recognize the difference, and won't let you apply different weldment properties in each configuration. Did that make sense? Have any of you experienced this? If so, is this just the way it is, or is there a different way of handling cut lists in configurations?
Thanks!
Thanks!

That is a good practice considering that the name and number of cut list items can change between the <as machined> and <as welded> configurations. I have found that this creates some confusion with some users.
