Question

Tool BOM with bulk parts

Hi All!

I am trying to open an existing solid tool (assembly) with bulk parts for the inserts and screws (I don't want to model them separately) in the NC assembly environment , My problem is, that Creo doesn't recognize the proper quantity even though the BOM_REPORT_QUANTITY parameter is already set.

Also, can I use a parameter to override the type field to show INSERT / HOLDER instead of GENERIC?

 

Is there any workaround for this? Thank you!

I am using Creo 12.

Unfortunately it seems, there is no solution 😥

Lets hope Creo 13 will fix this issue! 😁
