Introduction :

Shown below is a standard part, a valve handle, created in a full-featured SDS2 program by Fusing material. Another way to import standard parts into Modeling is to use " Link to New File " to import a reference model.

Settings for standard parts can be reviewed on the User Created Starndard Part Material window.

Submaterial piece marking :

The submaterial mark prefix for a standard part depends on how the material was created. For a standard part created by Fusing the material, the standard part will receive the same piecemark as the material selected to be fused to. For a standard part created by using " Link to New File " to import a reference model, the material will be dummy material with a submaterial mark prefix of d (e.g., d1 or d2 or etc.)

Steel grades :

Steel grades that are available for standard parts depend on the material type that was selected for the " Locate material to fuse to " step of creating the standard part. For example, if that material was a channel, then the steel grades that you can select for the standard part come from the Job Option list of " Channel Grades ."

For a standard part created by using " Link to New File " to import a reference model, the steel grades are from the Job Options list of " Plate Grades ."
