Detailed information

• 

  Not dependent on specific CAD software The file formats for shape information (geometry) that can currently be imported into QuickBOM are OBJ (a common mesh model) or 3DM (Rhinoceros model). Additionally, the storage locations of individual part models and assembly information are managed in CSV format, so as long as these files are prepared, there is no dependency on specific CAD software. In particular, for Rhinoceros models, layer information, including sublayers, is recognized as assembly information (parent-child relationships between parts), allowing Rhino models to be treated as hierarchical structures like assembly models.

• 

  Simple and intuitive operation The main basic operations required are simple tasks such as "moving parts," "setting camera angles," "placing balloons," and "outputting to templates," so even those who do not usually handle CAD can quickly become accustomed to the operation. The operations are basically performed using the mouse, so there is no need to memorize difficult commands.

• 

  Moving Parts To move a part, simply click on the target part to select it and then move it along the XYZ axis with the mouse. You can choose whether or not to display the axis lines as needed.

• 

  Output to Excel Template Once the arrangement of parts and balloons, as well as the camera angle, are determined, the output will be sent to the template. When outputted, the view image and parts list will be written out in Excel. Since the template is in Excel format, you can easily create documents like parts lists or assembly instructions depending on the layout and how you set it up.

• 

  Vector format image generation In addition to outputting to a template, vector format image data (in SVG format) is also generated, allowing for further processing and editing when imported into software like Illustrator.

• 

  Automation of tasks Since information such as part movement is managed in CSV files rather than a special file format, it is possible to automate and optimize the process of part deployment according to specific purposes by utilizing macros, VBA, and other programming tools, as well as customizing it.
