System parameter to set how substitute materials are used in the Board list
When the board list is created for a run the selection of boards from the board library can be customised to include alternative materials. These are materials which can be used for producing a part if the primary material set for a part runs out of stock during the optimisation. A typical example is for internal and filler parts where different grades or even thicknesses of material can be used.
The options are:-
None
Boards
Offcuts
Boards & Offcuts
Use the list box to select an option
The settings determine whether boards for the alternative materials are selected or not. If alternative materials are selected the values can be used to set whether boards, offcuts or both are included.
