Automatic derivation of model data

The extremely powerful machining feature "Plant Hardware component" derives all required data directly from the underlying SOLIDWORKS 3D model. In addition to the exact position and orientation of the added hardware component, this can include tool properties and variables for machining the furniture parts where the component is mounted, which are available for subsequent decision making processes in the postprocessor.
The handling of this powerful machining featur is very simple: Just add the machining feature to a hardware component modification, enter the desired additional information - done!
