Hello all, 

 

I had a look in the forum but I could locate anything specifying the contents or the form of the excel file required in order to import (not export!) the ply layup when creating a laminate in Hypermesh. Could you please provide an example file?

 

Thank you.

    Dear Rahul,

     

    thank you for your reply and the attached file. However I was looking for the excel file format in order to import the plies during a 'laminate' creation (PLY based modeling). 

     

    See attached picture.

     

    Thank you.

    I've found the answer myself:

    Refer to help: Create/Edit Laminate Dialog

     

    Select Import from Excel (as seen in the above picture), then select .csv file. Select your file (must be comma separated) and open. I have attached an example .csv file (Hypermesh format) for your convenience.
