Drilling module training syllabus

Detailed curriculum of the course

First hour content:

• Introduction to the Drilling Module, including its initiation and the rationale behind its creation in the Piper 3D program.
• Overview of the capabilities of the new Drilling Module and its potential uses.
• Demonstration of the supplementary tasks replaced by the new Drilling Module and the time savings it offers.
• Brief introduction to the database changes with the Drilling Module.
• Presentation of changes on the furnishing interface.
• Characteristics of the new icons.
• Display of drill hole images in the Furnisher.
• Changes in the position and number of holes due to dynamic size changes.
• Demonstration of extracting parts drawings with holes from a prepared plan on a mini kitchen.
• Display within the workshop drawing on the surfaces of parts.
• Introduction to the new Drilling Module editor interface.
• Creating new holes with fixed dimensions or using values from the dimensioning system in the calculation table.
• Possibilities of using existing templates, including copying and modifying them.
• Setting size filters for holes and rotation possibilities. The importance of size filtering for alternating the display of grouped holes.
• Graphical display of the editor interface and its properties.
• Creating new sizes in the dimensioning system parallel to making holes, then using them for hole creation.
• Importance of using the dimensioning system for frequently used hole groups.
• The importance of dynamism in the Drilling Module, following Piper 3D's dynamism.
• Displaying the created holes in the Furnisher.
• Inserting so-called hole templates as partial elements beside basic elements for certain base elements.
• Creating and inserting these hole templates, including adding parameters and conditions in the calculation table.
• The effect of these templates on connecting parts.
• Illustrating these interactions in the Furnisher and workshop drawing.
  
  

Second hour content:

• Detailed introduction to database changes.
• Changes and expansions in base elements.
• Importance of these changes and expansions for creating drill holes.
• Modifications to shelf systems and adjustment possibilities.
• Introduction of new shelf sets for lower cabinets, upper cabinets, and pantry cabinets separately.
• Presentation of holes in new shelf sets (group and row hole forms).
• Expanded door fronts for lower, upper, and pantry cabinets.
• Adjustment possibilities for hinge holes in these door fronts.
• Parallel changes in the display of fittings in production preparation with the expanded base elements.
• The system will list four shelf support buttons for each shelf inserted in the given cabinet.
• For new door fronts, the number of hinges drawn and listed in production preparation will vary according to the door height.
• Significant changes in materials to ensure accurate and identifiable production preparation.
• Materials are no longer sorted by manufacturer, ensuring accurate identification in production preparation.
• A simplified list of specific edge sizes and all selectable colors for each edge type has been created for edgebanding.
• Each color now includes the associated color code, making accurate identification in production preparation unavoidable.
• New settings have been created in production preparation processes to align with the modified materials.
  
  

Third hour content:

• Display and settings of drill holes within the workshop drawing.
• Displaying dimensions and dimension lines with positioning and resizing.
• Changing the positions of dimensions and origin.
• Printing from set parts drawings as PDF or paper-based.
• Exporting from created parts to DXF format.
• Properties of the DXF file.
• Using the exported file in CNC machining centers.
• As an additional option, exporting DXF files from the Furnisher interface for further use in AutoCAD.
  
  

Fourth hour content as a bonus:

• For those who purchased the Pipshow module during the current campaign, a demonstration of Pipshow usage.
• Others are also welcome to watch the demo to discover new features.
• Demonstration of important settings in a plan created in Piper 3D before exporting.
• Displaying the exported plan from Piper 3D in Pipshow.
• Introduction to the Pipshow program interface.
• Detailed settings for the plan (lighting, illumination, environment, saving locations, output resolution, etc.).
• Setting elements of the plan, including textures, structure, gloss, and reflection.
• Simplification and precision of new movement settings introduced in the program.
• Movement or rotation with the set raster values.
• New magnetic alignment (magnetic attraction of moved furniture elements to notable points of other furniture elements).
• Taking and saving photos from different camera angles of the created plan.
• Sending a walkable plan to clients by creating a link from plans uploaded to the cloud.
• Method for opening the walkable plan.
