Question

Product Configurator using OOTB WT

e.g. Blocks with Mounts:

Depending on the size of a block, the mounts must be fixed with different number of screws and different types of mounts.

The number of screws and Mount Type are calculated on the calculated weight of the block.

Calculate the weight: Weight1 = length1 x width1 x height1 x density1 (factor)

If "Weight1" falls in a range <=10000 requires mount type  A, screws # per Mount 8 and screw type M8

If "Weight1" falls in a range >10000  but <=50000 requires mount type  A, screws # per Mount 12 and screw type M8

If "Weight1" falls in a range >50000 but <=100000 requires mount type  B, screws # per Mount 10 and screw type M10

If "Weight1" falls in a range >100000 requires mount type  B, screws # per Mount 14 and screw type M12

Can this be down using OOTB Windchill ?

Got a lead to check out but maybe someone has experience with this type of use case?

„Advanced Selection Logic for Configurable Modules”

Thanks in advance for any Feedback ...

John,

This case can be handled with the Advanced Logic capability.  Another option might be to use the Platform Structures (Options and Variants) which allows numeric ranges so the choice selections can be handled, but the quantity would have to be fully expressed on Occurrence links which might be more work than is worth.
