Weight calculation

General

Often, the weight of products needs to be included in product brochures and technical product descriptions. Product handling and transportation also require knowledge of the product's weight. In some cases, the product's weight can be used to determine its costs or price.

  • Weight calculation is based on the item structure and the presence of weights assigned to items.

For an item representing a component or an assembly composed of local parts, weight calculation is based on the volumes of model parts in Vertex G4 and the density of the raw material item.

  • Vertex G4 automatically generates the weight for the model and item.

Weight can also be defined in Flow either by entering the weighed weight for the item or by calculating the weight based on consumption and unit weight.
