Lines Tab
Lines can be used to bundle multiple stations within a project. One or more lines can be created in a project. This allows very large lines with many individual stations to be clearly divided into multiple sub-areas, for example. By dividing into sub-areas, an actual existing line topology can also be mapped (e.g. an assembly line consisting of the sub-areas pre-assembly, main assembly and final assembly).
|
At least one line must always be created for each project, even if this line consists of only one station. |
When clicking on a project, the project details are displayed under Engineering > Project Overview. The Lines tab displays an overview of the existing lines. Lines can be created, opened for editing and deleted in the overview.
