About Profile Sketch EndCut and Opening Representation

Data setup Resources: The required icon for the EndCut in the drawing retrieves from the EndCut icon resource in the data setup. The EndCut icon resource establishes in the data setup as below:

• Create EndCutIcon chapter under Profile chapter in the Drawing Catalog.
• Set Resource Identifier of EndCutIcon chapter as MfgRsc_Ch_EndCutIcon.
• Insert the required 2D Component as the feature corresponding to each EndCut type icon in EndCut chapter
• This EndCut Icon entry has a resource identifier as Mfg_EndCutIcon_+ Sdd EndCut Typename
  • For the same EndCut, if the EndCut icon at the start and then the end needs to be different, then the location of the EndCut needs to be added in the identifier with _Start for icon at the start and _End for icon at the end.
  • For example, if the EndCut type is E1, then
    • The EndCut icon for start has resource identifier as Mfg_EndCutIcon_E1_Start
    • The EndCut icon for end has resource identifier as Mfg_EndCutIcon_E1_End
    • The EndCut icon for start or end irrespective of location has a resource identifier as Mfg_EndCutIcon_E1
• For each EndCut icon, establish the EndCutTableName identifier, which is the resource identifier of the required EndCutTable in EndCutTable chapter (as described below)

Data establishup Resources - The parameter table for the EndCut in the drawing is retrieved from the EndCut table resource in the establishing the data. This table resource need establishes in the data setup as described below.

• Create EndCutTable chapter under Profile chapter in Drawing Catalog.
• Set Resource Identifier of EndCutTable chapter as MfgRsc_Ch_EndCutTable.
• Insert required 2D Component of EndCut table as feature
• Set unique ResourceIdentifier to EndCut table entries.

The cell name in the table establishes as the parameter name of the EndCut. The cell where the value displays.

When the EndCut table generates in the profile drawing, the corresponding manufacturing EndCut retrieves, and the value of the parameter in the manufacturing EndCut displays in the cell.

If the name of the parameter has Pub_ or Priv_ prefix, then the name of the parameter without the Pub_ or Priv_ prefix needs to be given in the cell name.

Example:

1. The cell name of the B1 cell is given as D1.
2. The cell name of the B2 cell is given as L1.

When the table generates for the EndCut in the profile drawing:

• The value of the D1 parameter in the manufacturing EndCut displays in the B1 cell.
• The value of the L1 parameter in the manufacturing EndCut is displayed in B2 cell.

The table where the EndCut icons display establishes in the Profile Drawing Template as described below:

• Create a Table with name as IconTable in the Profile Drawing Template. The cells where EndCut icons display are named as Start_EndCut for displaying the start EndCut icon, and End_EndCut for displaying the end EndCut icon.
• Create two reference point named as Start_EndCutTable and End_EndCutTable. These reference points denote the origin location of the EndCut tables for start and end.

As shown in the figure below, EndCut table having a name IconTable creates in the profile drawing template.

This shows the name of the table cells (Start_EndCut and End_EndCut) for displaying the EndCut icons.

Profile Fabrication Sketch generation:

• Profile fab Sketch is generated with EndCut icons in the cell named Start_EndCut and End_EndCut.
• Origin of EndCut parameter table of Start EndCut places at Start_EndCutTable reference point.
• Origin of EndCut parameter table of End EndCut places at End_EndCutTable reference point.

Data setup Resources:The icon for the opening type in the drawing is retrieved from the Opening icon resource in the data setup. The opening icon resource establishes in the data setup as described below.

• Create Opening chapter under Profile chapter in Drawing Catalog.
• Set Resource Identifier to Opening chapter as MfgRsc_Ch_OpeningIcon.
• Insert required 2D Component as feature corresponding to Opening contour type icon in Opening chapter.
• This Opening Icon entry has an identifier Mfg_OpeningIcon_+ SddOpeningContourName.

The IconTable in the Profile Drawing Template has cells to display the opening type name and icon, as shown in the figure below.

Maximum 5 opening types and icons display in the opening table:

• The cells where the opening type names are to display are named as Opening_1_Type, Opening_2_Type, Opening_3_Type, Opening_4_Type, Opening_5_Type
• The cells where the opening icons are to display are named as Opening_1, Opening_2, Opening_3, Opening_4, Opening_5.
  
  
• Profile fabrication sketch generation with opening type name and icon.
  
  Profile fab Sketch gets generated with Opening icons in the cell named Opening_1, Opening_2, Opening_3, Opening_4, Opening_5.

Data setup Resources: The texts displayed in the title block retrieve from the business rule in the data setup. The business rule for the title block establishes in the data setup as described below.

• Create chapter TitleBlock under Profile chapter in Drawing catalog.
• Set the ResourceIndentifier as MfgRsc_Ch_TitleBlock
• Create an action rule inside a product. This action rule returns the list of attribute names to display in the Title block.
• Insert this product as an object under TitleBlock chapter. Set the ResourceIdentifier as the name of the rule to be run.

• The rule is given the ManufacturedPart as input in the variable named ProcessItem.
• The rule returns the list of attribute names in the same sequence as defined in the title block table in the variable TitleBlockAttributes.

The Profile drawing template contains the Title Block table as described below.

• Create the Title block table having name as Title_Block
• The cells that have the texts that retrieve from the business rule display, and are named sequentially as Attribute_1 … Attribute_n.

Profile Fabrication Sketch generation - The Title_Block table fills with the list of values retrieved from the Business rule in the same sequence of the cell names,Attribute_1,…Attribute_n.

At the end of the drawing generation, the custom business rule executes.

Data setup Resources: The business rule for Profile drawing runs at the end of the drawing generation and establishes in the data setup as described below.

• Create chapter CustomDrawingRule under Profile chapter in Drawing catalog.
• Set the ResourceIndentifier as MfgRsc_Ch_CustomDrawingRule
• Create an action rule inside a product.
• Insert this product as an object under CustomDrawingRule chapter. Set the ResourceIdentifier as the name of the rule to run.

The rule has two inputs in the Rule context object in the below variables.

1. ProcessItem variable contains the Mfg item occurrence (ElementaryEndItem).
2. DrawingSheet variable contains the drawing sheet,DrwSheet object.
