Limitation: The created coordinate system needs to be set as the active PCS by the user.
Alternative workflow for file upload:
As an alternative the design can also be transferred to the pre processing and for example manually manipulated after the optimisation. If this is the use case, the geometry can also be uploaded from the pre processing. Therefore, step 8 is replaced by the following steps:
Step 8: Create solid geometry
Select the Smooth Geometry of the last iteration and use the Transfer Design Candidate Shape to pre processing button to create the NURBS geometry.
...
Right click on the Design Space object to create a new part of the Design Space which includes the Machining Allowances defined in the Interface.
...
Use the Design Space including the Machining Allowances and the solid Design Candidate to carry out an intersection. The resulting geometry is the Print Geometry as a solid file.
...
Step 9: File upload
Right click on the Print Geometry part and select Sync with Nexus to upload this geometry to the active Nexus project.
...
Continue with the AMPBF Connection workflow with AM-Studio and Simufact Additive to prepare the part for manufacturing.
The synchronisation from Pre-Processing uses the build direction of the last run Scenario and uploads this information to the Nexus document.
