2.37 Step 6: Perform a calculation using the constraint
file
■ Save the constraints as an .lcf file
Before a calculation can be done with the specified constraints, it has to be
saved as an lcf file (Limitations Constraint File). After that, the lcf file can be
used in the project.
■ Select the lcf file in the project.
To specify the lcf-file, go to the Program Machines tab, select one of the
machines in the applicable cell (this means that these limitations are set per
cell in the line and not for the entire line) and press the
Settings button. In
the General controls frame click the
Modify button. The Assembléon
Optimizer MPG General Controls window appears. In the Machine specific
frame click the
Settings button. Specify the lcf file in the Limitations
Constraint File textbox. Use the Browse... button to browse to the lcf file. Now
the lcf file with all its constraints will be taken into account during the opti
-
mization.

After a successful calculation, several useful reports and listings are
generated. In the next paragraphs an overview of some reports and listings is
given.
