Using a Framework in Hull Production

Automatic Generation of Parts (Ppanparts)

There are two alternative ways.

• Right-click the framework in the drawing and select function Generate Parts

• Use the Select function within HULL PPI and select frameworks.

The panel syntax can be used also for frameworks. Name is given with prefix slash, for example,

PANEL,'/PPM-TEST2X';

In case the framework is without name or with a name not following the hull naming conventions that means, too long name or non-accepted character, the DB reference number shall be used, for example,

PANEL,'=24104/277536';

Parts List, Material Lists, Profile Sketch and List, Profile Nesting, Weight and COG and Plate interface
