Hi!
i need to create a product in bending powerpack. i've created that on Solidworks and saved on DXF Format. But when i click the Import (DXF) Button appears one error message. Someone can help me?

In solidworks ive created only a simple sheet 100x200x5 mm ...

    you need the geometry in one layer, and bending lines in another layer.

    the shape of your object should be flat (2D) and not 3D

    you can define the thickness on bending powerpack after.


    when you load first time the product, it claims that the layer have not been defined.
    Just need to choose them on "cut profile" and "bending line" and do "import again last product.

    I hope this can help.

    regards

    The DXF file should be  saved as ascaii format instead of binary. The default layer names is "CUTPROFILE" and "BENDINGLINE". Otherwise you should specify the layer names.
