Hi,
after some feedback from manufacturing department I've edited the sheet_metal_material_table.csv to obtain a better flat pattern calculation. The edit was done on NX closed, but when I openend the part, the flat pattern doens't update. The update was performed with Menù->Tool->Update->Update for External Exchange. Doesn't exist an auto-update ?
I know that on NX 12 there is a string to put in the sheet_metal_material_table.csv to indicate that the table is changed, but I didn't test it.
Anyway, I'm on NX 11.02, there is setting that help final user have flange updated on the last sheet_metal_material_table.csv ?
Actually I don't know nothing apart to customize the open menu file that perform an Update for External Exchange.
Hi cubalibre00,
Whenever a part is saved with certain material preferences it is saved with the parameter values. So when you launch NX after doing changes in material table file and open the part you have to update the values through Sheet Metal Preferences.
regards.
