What is their idea – you can read below. welded – machined and welded configurations But today I want to write about other configuration applications. In the properties window, when defining a structural member, at the very bottom there is the Configurations tab. This is where you can select a specific....

Table cut list – preview in part
Generally, cut-list tables are inserted in technical drawings. Unlike assemblies, it is not possible to insert such a table during modeling. But it is possible to preview it in a different way. To do this, traditionally, go to the properties of welded structures and select the Cut list table tab. If you use different templates – you can also make them....
Which weldment options are worth enabling by default?
There are several important options in the weldment settings. These include Cut List Options (1): Create cut lists automatically – should be enabled. He is responsible for it, that the cut-list is inserted automatically, and not manually – as it was in older versions of the program. Automatically update cut lists – should also...
Transfer material from the profile in welded structures
In SOLIDWORKS, you can assign a material to a construction profile from Weldment profiles. However, for the operation to be successful, you have to assign this material to the profile beforehand. Defining the material looks the same as in the case of 3D objects. Then, if you choose a profile with material, select Transfer material from profile. If no material is specified in the selected profile – error will appear....
