Material from Sub-assy in draft
Material from Sub-assy in draft
(OP)
The problem I have is that I can't figure out how to put a material in a sub-assy and make it show up in the material column on my BOM on the draft drawing.
Does anyone know how I can do this. I can't modify the BOM without unlinking it from the parts, so what I am to do?
Thanks

RE: Material from Sub-assy in draft
an assembly itself has no material and therefore you can't
assign one to it. The reason is that it's made up by different
parts with different materials -- works as designed
When in V19 there is a workaround:
- declare the sub-assy in question as weldement
- assign a material to the bead property
This materal can be refernenced in BOM. With V18 it does not
work because the variable (Bead_Material that is) is missing

Depending on if you do an atomic P/L or indented, you may have to adjust the occurrence properties of the other components.
