Steve Shanbaum Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 What was throwing me on the blank families discussion was that I had planned a similarly named element, but for a different purpose. The blank group I'd envisioned would hold the elements common to a collection of blanks, such as the material, class (semifinished/finished), and possibly other features like Intrinsic Treatments. But, I do understand the goal of this other blank group now. Maybe it would be good to have both? A shared-characteristic grouping, as well as a product-availability grouping?

Alfredo Duenez Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 Steve, I agree with with you. if we can get an agreement on blank group category it will be great. Typically I have seen what you describe: Material Index / SF vs SL / Surface Coating Attributes (No Coat/ HC / AR) / Phototropic characteristic (clear/photo-trans/polarized) / color....One thing to consider will be some of the tint/sun color also....I believe some of the existing tables on different LMS can be a good start.....

Joe Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 We should also consider the various new "blue" technologies that is coming out and the impact that it's is having on product setups for various systems. Having a standard could help all upstream and downstream technologies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
