| Feature |
| MTO |
| Description |
| This setting defines the calculation method for insert bands, which are typically ordered in meter rolls. The circumferences of the insert bands are calculated, and if the total length exceeds the limit defined by 1M or 10M, the quantity in the parts list is increased accordingly. The options are: 1 - 1M: The circumferences of the insert bands are calculated. If the total length exceeds 1 meter, the quantity in the parts list is adjusted accordingly. 10 - 10M: The circumferences of the insert bands are calculated. If the total length exceeds 10 meters, the quantity in the parts list is adjusted accordingly. X - XM: The length of the insert bands is specified individually, and if the defined limit is exceeded, the quantity is adjusted accordingly. This function provides precise control over the calculation and representation of insert bands based on their total length and the selected options. |
