SW weldment & cutlist

Discussion in 'SolidWorks' started by Wayne Tiffany, May 4, 2005.

  1. I have an assy file that a user created by making a SW wlmt, welding on some
    other parts (as in putting them in the assy and mating them), some of them
    created in-context, and then some UHMW & bolts added for good measure. So,
    the big question is: is there some way to have all the parts show up
    individually in the SW BOM, including the 5 cutlist parts in the SW wlmt ?
    I tried different settings and didn't come up with anything. This is not
    the modeling method I would have suggested, but that's the way it is right
    now. Thoughts?

    Try saving the weldment itself out to separate parts by adding a split
    feature. Then Replace the part file of the weldment with the assembly
    file that contains the separate parts. you could go further to disolve
    the sub-assembly to have all parts on the top level.
