Summary

This example covers the steps necessary to configure your Presets to allow for Consolidation of Labels and Saw Files Across the Project. This is an example of the Assembly report after the Preset edits.

Steps

Consolidation of labels and saw files across the Project

1.  In the main Project List window, select Presets.

2.  Select Piece Labeling and Sequencing, and information displays to the right.

The Preset Manager > Fabrication > Piece Labeling and Sequencing window below displays the selections used to produce this example.

3.  For Process Unit > Cutting Output Consolidation By, select Project, so Cutting Output Consolidation will be by Project.

4.  For Piece Labeling and Sequencing, select the following:

  • For Piece Label Prefix, select Custom Prefix for All and remove any prefix if prepopulated. This will result in a count of all pieces i.e. 1,2....4,5.......

5.  For the Piece Sequencing, select the following:

  • Select Restart Sequence At > Cutting Output Consolidation, so label sequencing is consistent with saw file consolidation.
  • Select Chord Labeling Sequence > Based on Saw Sort Criteria (i.e. first cut board would get #1), so the piece is numbered in order of the saw sort.
  • Select Web Labeling Sequence > Based on Saw Sort Criteria (i.e. first cut board would get #1), so the piece is numbered in order of the saw sort.

  • Check Inside out when symmetric.

6.  Select Piece Label Consolidation > Cutting Output Consolidation, so that label consolidation is consistent with the saw file.

7.  Click Close.

8.  After Presets are configured, select Tools > Batch Process and click Process.

9.  This is an example of an Assembly report with Consolidation of Labels and Saw files Across the Project.
