Optional Add on Module for PLUS 2D (Non-Rect Large Part)

Non-Rect Large Part

For this optional module, we consider a part as Large Part if it is larger than the available stock size either in Length or in Width but not both. The part also has to be non-rectangular. The large part can be input as a Parametric Part or from a DXF file or from a DSTV file.

This module allows the part to be split either in X-direction or in Y-direction only. You can specify certain conditions: a. Maximum number of joints (less than 5) b. Minimum length of the split part

The user interface below allows the users to specify splits for a number of parts at a time, which can include both horizontal and vertical split. There is also validation which ensures that the minimum length of split part is maintained.

Key Features:

• Simple interface to split parts
• Allows to verify the result of split, can be used iteratively to arrive at the right joints quickly.
• Saves timed and material. 
• Convection followed to identify split parte. 
• Output contain part drawing with split information.
