Why is my column for SHEET METAL THICNKESS in the BOM empty in the assembly?

Emre Kurtoglu Kurtoglu Apr 18, 2016 2:46 AM

I got an assembly drawing of a 3D model which 90% of its parts contains of sheet metal.

When i insert the BOM in the assembly drawing, i have got my columnt of material, stocksize and part no. filled in, but the column of sheet metal thicnkess is empty.

Although i went to properties of some parts and added sheet metal thickness in the configuration specific in the table like material and stocksize.

I put some screenshots down below here.

Can someone help me please

Kind regards,

Emre Kurtoglu

Is it possible for you to upload the part and drawing file?

It looks like you have mis-matching fields in your cutlist properties and in your BOM. Notice in the first red circle you have thickness populated into the property name of "description". Then if you look at the second circle you have your BOM trying to pull the thickness from property name of "SHEET METAL THICKNESS". Try adding a column into your BOM for "Description" if it fills in with the thickness then its just a matter of making your names match, if it doesn't you have something else going on.

Hope this helps.
