Customization Buddy Checklist 🛠️
Hey there, customization champion! 🏆 Before you wrap things up, let’s run through this quick checklist together. Each section is tied to a specific Preset in the portal viewer, so we’ll be checking everything in the right spot. Ready? Let’s do this! 🎉
Scan Results
Check if parts are too large for stock.
Review any oversized parts; revise as needed.
Part Details
Plates
Spot any uncommon plate thicknesses, especially over 20mm (e.g., 24mm or 34mm).
Double-check if these are triclad plates or profiles.
Profiles
Ensure parts labeled as profiles truly are profiles, not plates (like flat bars or pipes).
Confirm triclad profiles are correctly validated.
Watch out for unusual flat bar dimensions; they might need to be processed as plates.
Markers
Identify any markers needing a .step export.
Check if these parts should be processed as special milling parts.
Materials
Verify all parts have a material assigned.
Confirm all profiles have the same material (e.g., aluminium 6060T6 or 6082).
Make sure plate parts don't mistakenly share the same material as profiles.
Sorting
Ensure every part has an assembly name.
Do a quick scan to check parts are in the correct assembly.
Shorten any overly long assembly names to fit on small plates.
Welding
Structure Types
Shell: Check all skin plates, bulkheads, plate flanges, and diamond plates.
Primary: Verify all construction parts with flanges.
Secondary: Ensure remaining construction is correct (e.g., intercostals, knees, stringers).
Custom Weld Marking Pattern
Apply client-specific weld patterns where needed.
Plate Details
Print Sides
Double-check primary construction for double print if using weld marking.
Verify shell plating has the marking side on the inside/construction side.
Ensure cut flanges have the marking side where the frame connects.
Bevels
Add bevel codes where necessary, especially for parts under 10mm thick.
Make sure bevel codes are applied to the correct spot.
Overlength
Bend Parts (2D)
Parts with a radius < R300mm? Add 50mm overlength.
Parts with a radius > R300mm? Add 100mm overlength.
Formed Parts (3D)
Check if formed parts need overlength; use the same method as for bend parts.
For any doubts, consult the expert.
Section Overlength
Confirm if a section needs overlength for assembly and welding.
Forming
Double-check if any formed parts need to be marked as "forming: yes."
Discuss with an expert if unsure about extreme shapes.
