Bolt Lentgh unit - Isometric BOM

[Anonymous]

Hi to everyone,

It´s possible to use inches in the isometric BOM only for the bolt’s length?

When i generate the isometric the bolt length is informed in “mm”

For example:

5/8" X 89

I need this dimension as shown below:

5/8" X 4"

Could anyone help me please?

Thanks to everyone for the support.

It pulls this information from your spec depending on which ones you used. Check the spec and look for the description that has the size and length in it. You can add the imperial size and use it instead.

Hi

In spec editor, bolt lenght is  @@@ in Description size.

Every bolt group has his length defined but it's defined on inches or mm depending on how you set the catalog, metric or imperial

Imperial:

Metric:

¿Where can i add the imperial size?

How is your project setup? Imperial, metric or mixed?

Hi

Sorry for not mentioning that

It's in mixed when lenght is in mm and diameter at inches

At imperial, everything is in inches

At metric, everything is in mm.

I always believed that , in mixed project, all lengths are shown as mm and diameters as inches.

Thanks to everyone and sorry about the lack of information.

My project is using mixed units, and the tutorial posted helped me a lot.

In my reseach I could realized that I dont understand what is the Bolt Maping Lenght. Since the lenght information is definied in the bolt´s size catalog, why I need to mapping the lenghts?

Thanks guys!!!

Hi guys,  is that a way to work around this ? 

That pdf work most on round the value, but I wat that instead isometrics shows 5/8" X 83, it pulls out 5/8" X 3.25" or 5/8" X 3.1/4".

Our projects use mixed metric units.

I must that Plant overcomes the default lenght unit in bolt mapping table, this one is in inch.
