exporting assembly to layers
(OP)
When exporting from Solidworks with intended import to Mastercam how do I control what layer each part will be on in Mastercam?
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: exporting assembly to layers
MastercamX will import native SolidWorks files ... so layers would be unnecessary.
Doesn't Mastercam import SW drawing layers as created in SW?
RE: exporting assembly to layers
So if I bring a native Solidworks file to Mastercam it would be like Solidworks (no layers). The file is going to my customers Mastercam (I don't know what version) and they want it to open with components on layers (ie all bolts on 1 layer,all pins on another) I use ProE mostly and I can control it there by putting the components on a layer and identifing the layer to go to a numbered layer in Mastercam. I am thinking there is probably a way to do this in Solidworks even though Solidworks doesn't use layers it does have individual components in assembly. Thank you
RE: exporting assembly to layers
Can Mastercam use colours or custom properties to distinguish between parts?
