3D models of BRX
« on: October 12, 2022, 09:22:53 AM »
This is an issue I have been battling since I downloaded my first part from a vendor about 20 years ago.  Too much detail!  The BRX models have so much unnecesary detail for what everyone uses them for. All those cooling slots with rounded edges, interior light pipes. Put a BRX into a model and the whole process slows down. So the choice is often do I spend lots of time defeaturing a part or work slower. Currently I am defeaturing the two BRX PLCs, a C-more and two servo motors with heatsinks. Imagine the wasted hours if every customer that downloads the 3D model needs to do this! Wouldn?t it make sense to do this at your end where having all the features in the modeling software makes it SO much easier and it only gets done once by the person most qualified to do it?

I thought this was discussed before and the ADC models had been busted down to individual geometry?
I retract my earlier statement that half of all politicians are crooks.  Half of all politicians are NOT crooks.  There.

Not BRX yet.
Just spent hours defeaturing BRX18 and 36, Two servo motors, C-More, Servo power supply.  Those in particular because I currently have them in 5 projects.

Oh good, so BRX came recently enough those weren't among the stuff that got disassociated into a single mesh?   Cool.
