BOM Compiler

BOM Compiler enters the custom properties into each of the Sections & Plates to compile an MTO.

 

Plates and Section Parts have their BOM’s updated automatically through the Custom Properties.

 

Plates must be drawn on the Top View. A bounding box is added to the plate and the sides are measured.

 

The plate size is compared against flat bar sizes and named accordingly.

 

A single welded section has the cut list data added to the custom properties of the part, allowing BOM data to populate through from a cut list to an assembly BOM, removing indented cut lists.
