Part Identification

AI-Based 2D Drawing analysis

The 2D Drawing Analysis feature has been enhanced with best-in-class AI technology, delivering superior performance in extracting data directly from 2D drawings. This includes key details such as Name, Material, Dimensions, and Assembly information, enabling an initial technical assessment without requiring a 3D model.

...

Now fully ITAR-compliant, the feature is ready for industries with strict regulatory requirements. Additionally, customers retain complete ownership of their proprietary information, ensuring data security and confidentiality at every step.

Creo CAD Plugin

The latest enhancements to our Part Identification tool , is now have made it fully integrated with PTC Creo. This update makes it easier than ever to streamline your Additive Manufacturing additive manufacturing workflows directly from your preferred CAD environment.

Key Features & Capabilities:

• Ease Easy File Transfer: Through our partnership with PTC, you can now send

  Status
  title .prt

  and

  Status
  title .asm

  files directly from Creo to Part Identification.

• Embedded Metadata Recognition: Automatically extract metadata such as part name, description, revision, department, assembly details, tolerances, sizes, and more to create parts effortlessly.

• Empower Designer to AM: Designers can now send parts for evaluation directly from Creo and quickly determine if their designs are suitable for suit AM technologies such as L-PBF, WAAM, and WLAM.

With integrated manufacturability checks—developed in collaboration with industry and academia (see https://3yourmind.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AYAagw) — designers —designers can confidently optimize their creations for AM. This includes guidance on thin-wall design, overhang limitations, hole and printing orientation, and more.

This new Creo integration enables faster iterations and smarter design decisions, bringing additive-ready parts to life.

New Technology Framework

Part Identification just got a significant upgrade, offering flexibility to manage technologies. The new Technology Framework empowers platform administrators with the ability to add, edit, or remove technologies effortlessly. This framework simplifies the process of linking cost and lead-time scripts, enabling precise tuning for specific technologies.

...

As part of our continuous improvement, we are expanding technology support incrementally. Through close collaboration with Meltio, we now support Wire Laser Additive Manufacturing, with more technologies to follow soon.

Independent Price Setting for Catalog Parts Enables

Part Identification Customers

...

We've enhanced the flexibility of our Catalog module by allowing Catalog admins to define prices for parts independently of whether the 3YD ERP Order Management module is activated. This update enables a fixed price to be set for any catalog part, making it simpler to communicate expected costs to users upfront, regardless of their service selections or ERP Order Management usage.

The system now maintains manually entered prices even when a service is later associated, ensuring pricing consistency. Additionally, all price displays and transactions will align with the user’s currency, streamlining the pricing process across different regions and services. This change supports more transparent and direct pricing strategies.

Prioritising Your Most Critical Parts

Don't want to miss deadlines for your most critical parts? We've enhanced our system with a new feature that streamlines the management of MES part production priorities. Order Coordinators can now assign priorities to MES parts as they transition orders into production. This setting is clearly visible to operators, empowering them to efficiently prioritize parts for production according to their urgency, ensuring that critical components are handled promptly and accurately.

The priority setting is reflected in the MES part list and detail views and can be modified directly in these interfaces. Additionally, priorities are filterable and sortable within the job creation and sequence adjustment interfaces, ensuring that production aligns efficiently with operational needs.

This update simplifies workflow management, enhances operational efficiency, and supports better resource allocation for prioritized customer orders.

Integration of TRUMPF TruPrint Machines via OPC/UA

We are excited to announce the successful integration of TRUMPF TruPrint series machines with our 3YD MES via the OPC/UA standard. This new connection allows operators to automatically receive real-time updates on machine statuses and ongoing print jobs directly within the Scheduler.

Slightly reduced tessellation quality of triangle meshes created from parametric file formats which reduces processing time by up to 50% while keeping deviation of parameters like surface area and volume below 0.5%.

Other Improvements

• The standard ISO/ASTM 52939:2023 can now be assigned to a Service and used to filter for Services in our basket.

Duplicated Analytics Dashboards

In some circumstances, Metabase may import some question in the wrong place, resulting in duplicates.

1. Find the duplicates:

   1. In Default Collection/Professional/Part Lifecycle Management, there can be 1 duplicate

   2. In Default Collection/Professional+/Part Lifecycle Management, there can be 3 duplicates

2. If any duplicate exists, archive the oldest duplicates.

   1. Hover with the mouse over the duplicates, and locate the progressive integer in their URLs. Example:
      Duplicate1: <domain>/analytics/question/1203-configured-parts-per-part-type
      Duplicate2: <domain>/analytics/question/1214-configured-parts-per-part-type

   2. Archive the one with the lowest index (in this example Duplicate1, because its url contains 1203)

Re-Analysis of 3D Files for New Manufacturability Checks

This is relevant for all AMPI customers who need a complete set of our new manufacturability checks of parts that had been created before updating to 24.12

...

• Open the Admin Panel (/admin/)

• Go to “Parts”

• Click on the top-left checkbox to select all parts on the current page

• Click on “Select all xxx parts” on the top right

• As an Action, select “Recalculate Geometries, Scores & Manufacturability Checks” in the dropdown

• Click Go

Extra-Scripts

It is possible to inject custom java-script into the application from within the admin panel. This functionality was modified as follows:

...

We encourage customers who currently use an extra-script to manually remove the document.write again and transform the existing scripts into plain javascript and css. See https://3yourmind.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PD/pages/1795227770/Embedding+external+JavaScript+into+the+application#Migrating-from-the-old-format for details on how to do this.

Update Direct Links for the New Login and Signup System

If you enable the new Login and Signup system (and we encourage you to do so), please ensure any direct links to the login or signup pages on your website, such as on your homepage, are updated. The new system uses different URLs for login and signup. For example:

Configuration of the Tessellation Quality

We slightly reduced the tessellation quality of triangle meshes created from parametric file formats. The old behavior can be restored by setting meshTessellationQuality: 0 in the values.yaml.

Changes to Machine Connectivity System Requirements
