### Axes
|
|
|
|
|
|
An axis is edited through 3 successive phases :
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **Definition :** define the type, direction, position of the axis
|
|
|
2. **Calibration :** define the median value (*ie* the zero value) and the min/max limit values
|
|
|
3. **Link :** link the axis with the corresponding Nomad controller
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Configurations
|
|
|
|
|
|
All the configurations are exported and available in the editor after the export and the conversion. In SolidWorks there is no standard concerning configuration management, but Nomad 3D have requirements concerning these. A `median` configuration is mandatory. The `min` and `max` configurations can be provided but are optional. All the components should have the same visibility in the `median`, `min` and `max` configurations. Any other configuration will be ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `median` configuration can be computed automatically once all the axes are calibrated. This configuration is generated using the active configuration to get the components visibility, and the median values of the axes to get the positions of the components. If the bounds of all the axes are defined, the `min` and `max` configurations can be computed automatically in the editor as well, using these bounds and the active configuration.

|
Components visibility can be edited in configurations. For Nomad 3D this feature is only used to clean up the model (remove duplicates and show hidden components).
