Outputs
Outputs are manufacturing files for a frozen configuration — not a drawing workspace dump.
Default handoff
The default process class is machined_or_general. When rules pass and Fusion generate succeeds, the buyer or salesperson can download STEP.
VendorCAD does not auto-generate Fusion Drawing Workspace sheets, dimensioned PDF/DWG shop drawings, or a universal fabrication file.
Process classes
| Class | Required files |
|---|---|
machined_or_general | STEP |
sheet_metal | STEP + flat DXF |
profile_cut | STEP + profile DXF |
Sheet-metal and profile-cut fail closed on ParamToStep until the Fusion template actually contains a validated flat pattern or named export sketch.
Eligibility
Export is allowed only when:
- Rules pass
- The generate job succeeded
- The required files for the process class exist
The App inbox stores the frozen parameters with the quote so production is not guessing from a PDF.
Full contract: Manufacturing package.
