AdditiveFEAOperationInput.base64PRMData Property

Parent Object: AdditiveFEAOperationInput
Defined in namespace "adsk::cam" and the header file is <Cam/AdditiveFEA/AdditiveFEAOperationInput.h>

Description

Contents of the PRM file from the print settings, encoded as a base64 string.

Syntax

"additiveFEAOperationInput_var" is a variable referencing an AdditiveFEAOperationInput object.
# Get the value of the property.
propertyValue = additiveFEAOperationInput_var.base64PRMData

Samples

Name Description
Additive MPBF FEA Process Simulation API Sample

Demonstrates how to automate an additive Metal Powder Bed Fusion (MPBF) thermo-mechanical process simulation using the Additive FEA API.

The script creates a new Fusion design containing a simple box body, switches to the MANUFACTURE workspace, and creates an Additive setup using the Autodesk Generic MPBF machine and the MPBF 60 micron print setting from Fusion's library.

It then constructs an FEA input deck with the AdditiveFEADeckBuilder, configuring a thermo-mechanical analysis (layers per element, coarsening generations, adaptivity, STL tolerance, ambient and final temperatures, build plate Z bounds and XY extension, convection, and an STL map). The deck is applied to a process simulation operation, the PRM file derived from the print settings is attached, and the simulation is run via generateToolpath. The script parses signalFileContents to confirm a successful finish, then builds a second deck and uses AdditiveFEAUtility.warpTriangleMesh to generate a warped triangle mesh from the simulation results.
