NC generator configuration
'General' tab
Format of date (Version 1-5):
The year is output as a 2-digit or 4-digit number.
Sequence of HEADERs (for PalProd):
by pallet: headers for leaves are created in the order in which pallets are loaded. (e.g. leaves 1, with the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 and then leaves 2 with the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4).
leaf1-leaf2: each header of leaf 1 is followed by a header of leaf 2 (ULB standard).
Smart symbols always in accordance with UNI standard:
In ULB standard, smart symbols (openings) contain a MOUNPART in leaf 1 and a CUTOUT in leaf 2.
Transfer project coordinates:
The coordinates in plan are used to transfer the positions of the elements in compliance with the Unitechnik interface.
Please note that some control computers may nor permit negative values.
Steel grade:
Steel grade for the reinforcement. If this field is empty, the steel grade is taken from the catalog, and a 3-digit number is created based on the name (e.g. BSt550S becomes 550).
'File name' tab
File name consists of:
Use this to specify how the file name is formed. If all the entries are empty, the project name is used for the file name.
File extension consists of:
Use this to specify how the file extension is formed. If all the entries are empty, "03d" is used for the file extension.
Note: When suffix 1 is set to pallet number for the creation of panel-oriented production data, the element number is used instead.
When suffix 1 is set to element number for the creation of pallet-oriented production data, the element number of the last element of the pallet is used.
Separate files for leaves 1 and 2:
The leaves are written to separate files.
To transfer double wall leaves separately, you need to set the Sequence of HEADERs setting (see above) to by pallet. Numbers 0-499 are used to transfer the first leaf and numbers 500-999 are used for the second leaf.
Product ID for half floors with separate leaves:
When Separate files for leaves 1 and 2 is enabled, the product ID for half floors is set as follows (in accordance with Unitechnik interface in HEADER block):
Half floor: product = 00
Double wall, first production: product = 01
Double wall, second production: product = 02
Double wall, automatic:
'SLABDATE I' tab
Suppress special formwork:
Panel edges with special formwork attributes (edge attributes in accordance with Unitechnik) are transferred as normal edges. This means that a special formwork bit is not applied when the UNITECHNIK file is created, regardless of the other settings.
Remove points on continuous lines:
Points on straight lines are removed.
Edges consist of smooth edge + groove / smooth edge + tongue / groove + tongue / smooth edge + groove + tongue
When a groove and/or tongue is not applied to the entire section edge of a wall panel, the settings you make here are used to transfer this edge to production.
Add edge attribute (bit 2) to poured joints at wall ends:
In the case of poured joints at solid wall ends, poured joint attributes can be added to these panel edges.
No: poured joint bit is not set
Yes: poured joint bit is set; fase attributes as transferred from Allplan
Yes – with fase: poured joint bit is set; top and bottom fase attributes are set explicitly (Uni-bit form = 0004, unless other bits are set in addition)
Yes – w/o fase: poured joint bit is set; top and bottom fase attributes are deleted explicitly (Uni-bit form = 000D, unless other bits are set in addition)
Element name:
The mark number or mark number text is written to the interface to ensure that the element can be identified uniquely in a database.
Number for assembly:
The numbers of stack elements (stack sequence) are usually entered in this field in the SLABDATE data record (see description of Unitechnik interface).
As an alternative, a unique stack sequence number of the process planning project (*.dat-format file) can be assigned to this field. In particular, this is necessary for elements with the same mark numbers to ensure that they can be identified.
Include plaster thickness (NcgUNI05):
Version 5.0 does not recognize plaster. However, it can still be transferred to Version 5.0.
Include bar overlap:
Bar overlaps at panel edges (edge attributes only) are transferred (obsolete in Unitechnik).
'SLABDATE II' tab
Pallet width for y offset:
In the case of a transfer by panel, this offset is used to calculate leaf 2.
Consider protruding parts with max. element size:
The maximum element size is recalculated for protruding parts of the selected type; the coordinates of the data are also recalculated.
Fixtures:
Fixtures can be taken into account as follows:
Never: protruding fixtures are not taken into account, irrespective of the settings here or in the fixture catalog.
As per fixture catalog: the paramters of the fixture catalog apply.
Always as per NC config.: all linear or surface fixtures (depending on your selection) are used to update dimensions.
Reinforcement:
You can use this to specify whether protruding reinforcement is ignored or whether the selected reinforcement is used to update dimensions.
'Fixtures' tab
Fixture name (V5.1 and higher):
Include list text (full text) or reference text of the catalog
Create MRP symbols as per fixture catalog:
Symbol fixtures can be transferred with the CAD geometry or a substitute geometry is created based on the MRP symbol set in the fixture catalog. The size of the symbol depends on the setting made for ”symbol size” in the NC generator.
Create symbol reference point as circle:
To define the position of the fixture, the first geometric element to be transferred is a circle with a radius of 1 mm, which the control computer uses as the reference point.
Transfer billed areas:
When selected, element areas are transferred as fixtures.
'Solid wall fixtures' tab
Create upstand as fixture:
When enabled, upstands are transferred as fixtures.
Name for upstand:
Name for upstand fixture.
Type/installation codes:
Type and insertion code (see ULB interface) for upstands transferred as fixtures.
Create slab support as fixture:
When enabled, slab supports (the negative part of an upstand) are transferred as fixtures.
Name for support:
Name for slab support fixture.
Height / width of formwork box:
Dimensions of the smallest formwork box in the factory.
Type and insertion codes when dimensions (hxb) >= formwork box:
Type and insertion code (see ULB interface) for slab supports transferred as fixtures when the dimensions are equal to or larger than those of the formwork box; in other words, formwork can be applied.
Type and insertion codes when dimensions (hxb) < formwork box:
Type and insertion code (see ULB interface) for slab supports transferred as fixtures when the dimensions are smaller than those of the formwork box.
'Hollow core element' tab
Create panel type / hollow block as fixture:
In the case of hollow core elements, the panel type (name specified in the panel type catalog during design) and the hollow blocks can be transferred as fixtures in order to transfer the element name and/or hollow blocks to a control system. The Unitechnik interface does not provide any options.
Type/installation codes:
Fixture code used for production and definition of type. Number can be defined freely or in compliance with Unitechnik.
Thickness of panels at bottom:
Height of hollow core elements inserted as fixtures (from old AIA times).
'Magnets' tab
Transferring magnet fixtures:
no, to edge, in corner (45°)
Magnet length / magnet width:
1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 magnets when edge length larger than:
Insertion codes for magnets:
In the case of openings with smart symbols, magnets are created as fixtures. With the to edge setting, the magnets are calculated and created along a panel edge; with the in corner (45°) setting, the magnets are applied to the corners of the opening.
The offset is defined by the value in the fixture catalog.
