Please note that the material list will contain only those materials that are
present in the Materials list. Smart2DCutting
manages different material panels and parts based on this field. If you don't
plan to use different material panels and parts you can leave this field empty
all the time.
Important: Please make sure you enter the same material string
for panels and parts with the same material type or you will not get the expected
results. The best practice is to add the material type to the Materials
list and then select it from the drop-down box for each panel or part.
Even the smallest difference between 2 material strings will cause the program
to treat them as different materials. For ex.: "MDF 18mm" and "MDF
18 mm" are considered different material types by the optimization engine.
Once entered, data can be modified in
the Stock list. |
