Editing Cabinets with MES Editor

  1. Open MES Portal:

    • Go to the MES Portal for any project where the work order is already created.

  2. Select a Cabinet:

    • Navigate to the Modular Unit section.

    • Select the cabinet you want to preview (e.g., cabinet C1 - base 1 shutter).

    • The 3D view of the cabinet and panel details will be displayed.

  3. Enter MES Editor Mode:

    • Click on the Edit Unit option.

    • The MES Editor window will open, displaying the cabinet at a component level.

  4. Modifying the Cabinet:

    • Construction Options:

      • Change the visibility of any panel.

      • Adjust the construction to rails or modify the construction of the edges as required.

    • Example Modification:

      • Select the right panel of the cabinet.

      • Open the panel level and create an extension.

      • In the extension parameters, create an extension of 300 towards the back.

      • The panel will now be extended by 300.

  5. Auto-Save Feature:

    • All changes made in the MES Editor will be auto-saved.

  6. Return to MES Mode:

    • Close the MES Editor tab.

    • Refresh the MES portal.

    • Select the same cabinet to see the updated 3D view with the modifications.

  7. Verify Modifications:

    • Check the panel details to ensure the finished dimensions reflect the changes made.

    • Verify the unit and enable it for manufacturing.

  8. Generating Outputs:

    • All outputs (e.g., cut-list, board layout, panel labels, CNC outputs) will include the modifications made in the MES Editor.

By following these steps, you can effectively use the MES Editor to make precise modifications to cabinets, ensuring that all changes are accurately reflected in the manufacturing process.
