Explode to ACIS enhancement

Explode to ACIS enhancement

Dear Advance Steel Dev Team,

 

Very often it happen, for steel structures with pipes, that we have to give to the producer an ACIS file, that have to be "read" by the laser cut machine. This file have to be saved with the position name of the single part and have to include only the single part.

 

Now I do it in this way: using the "_wblock" command I save the single part with its name as acad block, then I open it and use the Advance command to explode to ACIS each single file.

 

It could be a very useful tool if we have the option to export as acis file all the selected parts, automatically saving each single part separately with filename identical to the single part position name.

 

 

Hope to see this idea in the next releases of Advance Steel, cheers.

Hello, Stefano,

 

with whom have you shopped Advance Steel?
With Graitec?
Graitec has developed for Advance Steel a Plugin, the Graitec Powerpack for Advance Steel.
The Powerpack contains exactly this function which you need.
If you have purchased the Advance Steel with Graitec, you receive the Powerpack free of charge in addition.
Otherwise you can purchase the Powerpack about the Autodesk to ext. net curtain: https://apps.autodesk.com/ADSTPR/de/List/Search?isAppSearch=True&searchboxstore=ADSTPR&facet=&collec...

This is a fairly common process/request and should be incorporated into Advance without the need for extra expense or plug ins.
