Manufacturing Resource Layout

New Functionalities

VB Exposition of Attachments
This allows you to create attachments between products or manufacturing assemblies or between product and a manufacturing assembly (MA) through VB script in a product/process document. This allows you to export this information so that you can perform an analysis outside V5.
Modifying and Viewing a Resource's Footprint
This shows how to modify and view a resource's footprint. A footprint is the specification of the area occupied by the resource on the floor.
The "Display Resource Area on Footprint" in the Edit footprint dialog box
The area will be displayed on the resource footprint in the Edit footprint dialog box.
Attaching / Detaching a Drafting View
You can visualize the resource locations residing in a 2d CATDrawing file on a footprint which benefits you to position Robots and other objects with precision using the 2D drafting view of plant layout.
Cumulative Snap icon
The Cumulative Snap icon has been added to the Snap sub-toolbar.
VB Automation Support for V5 Attachments
This will allow you to extract information about the Parent and Child Product of any attachment within a Process or Product Document.

Enhanced Functionality

Attaching Elements
The Attach command in Resource Layout Workbench, allows selection of Products, and the Manufacturing Assemblies. You will be able to select a Manufacturing Assembly for attachment in addition to a product or resource.
