Solidworks to DXF for plasma table burnout
Solidworks to DXF for plasma table burnout
(OP)
Hello all,
I have a question about converting a solidworks model to a .DXF format that a customers plasma table can read for the burnout. I have no experience with AutoCad and I did a search for this but could not find the right questions. If I have a SW part model (flat steel) and send to a SW drawing, then export to .dxf, is this a format that a plasma table can read?
Thanks,
BB

By doing it this way you solve some of the scaling problems associated with going via a drawing. It's only funny when someone else gets a part back 1/10th the size it should be.
We would always then open the DXF and add a dimension and resave before sending, just to make sure there weren't scaling issues. Saves stuff ups at their end.
Cheers,
Craig
