MV Server Notifications
Hi All, We've set up MV Server to be able to create & process work orders remotely, although we've come across an issue where if there's an error during processing, there doesn't appear to be a way to know outside of reviewing the Event Log for a workMarking parts for CNC?
What is a easy way to mark cnc parts to keep the correct orientation for installation? We have curved parts need to label them so they get placed in the field in the correct orientation. Either letter fonts or lines cut into the part on the CNC wouldProduct viewer interaction product check
Is there any way to click on a product through Product Viewer or any other method to see what product it is in your model space? We have found from time to time that we have products in the Product Viewer that are not in model space and would get producedAppliance Panels Won’t Process
I’m doing a run of MDF profiled door and appliance panels. The doors process no problem, but the appliance panels do not want to nest. Any help is appreciatedStop auto printing of labels when processing work order
Hi, Every time I process a work order, it automatically sends the part labels to the printer which I do not want and I have just tried it on another user and does not do it even though all settings look the same. To my knowledge I have not changed anythingReport Modifying help
I start to understand modifying reports until something I think is simple just doesn't work. For our work order, I am trying to separate the edgebanding count by the comment field of our parts. We do trim, doors, etc. and that is defined in the commentReport Groups wont process all reports
This was a small issue in OEM but its a bigger in BSB, if it doesnt crash, then it just doesnt process my reports, i might get 1 out of my chosen 6 or so, if i'm lucky. I found that the move to BSB broke something and it was looking for referenced reportsFeature Request: Combine Work Orders
The ability to combine already set up work orders, without the need to choose specific parts because its already done, so it can then combine all the parts for nesting together. With the current set up it way to hard to go through and choose which cabinetsHas anyone made reports for 5pc door hinge boring?
This is always an issue for us and end up just hand writing the hinge placement on our 2D drawings for the guys in the shop. It would be awesome if there was a report for this using prompts. I was seeing that there is a Z value in the spread sheet usingThrough cuts
We are trying to get through cuts and can't figure it out. We were using brad point but the edges on the bottom side are not good enough so we got the through point bit from Frost but when we try to set it to -z.20" it doesn't cut all the way through.WoodWOP/Cutrite Multiple Pocket Configurations
We have a Homag nested bed that I use WoodWOP pockets made by CutRite and would like to stick to doing that (We run phenolic and the DXF MV spits out has flat machining, so my tool is just going full depth into phenolic) My issue is my other nested bedFeature Request Add minimum width and length to nesting scrap
As per the title there really should be a minimum width and length for scrap options in the settings. Having scrap pieces that are 2440mm long by 50mm are no good to me. But i dont mind some rectangles, pieces for our machine need to be minimum 950mmAngled Cabinet Design
I need to make a angled cabinet like the below picture. That was created very quickly with the Any Angle Cabinet, but not correctly, but i also need the door hinged on the angled side, 45deg hinge. I need to be able to make the angled side in a differentProcess New Cabinets in Existing Work Order
Is there a way to process a new batch of cabinets in an existing Work Order? Right now, every time I run a new batch of cabinets, I have to create a new Work Order. We process cabinets for each room and every project has several rooms. This makes the Work Order folder grow very fast with so many folders. If I could add new batches of cabinets to an existing Work Order, I could keep all the batches from a project together in a single Work Order. This would reduce the amount of folders in the WorkGRAINING
i have a problem with graining. we typically grain drawer fronts horizontal and doors vertical and it set that way in the library but when i create a product and nest it the graining isn't taken into account ant the parts can be rotated any which way.license issues
hey all, has anyone had an issue with their license where up to date with payments but we have been locked out, does anyone know what is going onAssigning priorities to routes and sawing operations
Hello I am trying to set up a program with our miterfold aggregate head to receive an initial route out with our down sheer bit. The idea is to get some of the material out of the way before the miterfold head makes its pass to help with tool life. ILarge Work Orders
Trying to get some opinions on this and not really go to a sales rep yet since they are just going to say "Yes it works". I am a long time MV user and with that I know it takes a long time to produce a work order from a room that has over 200 productsFace 6 first - reversed for shaker doors
We have a job coming up with shaker doors similar to the attached. We are set up to do face 6 first machining and I'd like to do as much as possible on the cnc. Is it possible to do face 5 first, then flip? I think the sheet will lose too much suctionMicrovellum Server Down?
Is the Microvellum Server down? Everyone in our office got a pop up message saying we could not validate our Microvellum floating license. We have internet access. So it must be the Microvellum Server, right?Microvellum Deauthorized Me as the Admin on MY ACCOUNT
I have had two seats on my PepperCADD account for literally decades. As of July Microvellum has set Chris Abubo, eng. mgr. at Spooner Woodworks as my Administrator. I haven't been working at Spooners for three years. Clay, Lenny, Chris E, they all knowMulti-pass Tool Not using small parts handling
I just set up my first multi-pass tool with incremental steps. Now my double pass onion skin set up is completely ignored. It works fine if I use the same tool but in as the one pass version. Any ideas?Unit Type Drop down Menu in Metric Template List as SqFt

How are you guys managing your files in Microvellum. It is very limited compared to V6.7. There is only one layer.Under Panel Led Strip Lighting
G,day Microvellum. Foundation Build 25.1.603.641. So I have a job with some Under Panels with led strip lighting. I fill out the required field in product prompts (Picture 1) so that my led light chase is 18.1mm wide and 11.3mm deep, cut it on the CNCCut List (part) import
Is there a simple way to import a cut list of parts with edge banding? I can import a product with size, material, item number, room # using the example "Example ABC Cabinets Import File.xls" I found here. Works great if I'm just importing cut parts withNesting Issue again
Dont know why i seem to be getting this sort of thing happening again, has something changed lately anyone else notice anything different in the recent updates? I had a tech come online to help me and we did go into the processor but i dont recall anythingProcessing Time for Ardis files
Has anyone noticed a dramatic increase in processing time when processing parts to Ardis recently? We are thinking it has to do with going to Windows 11 and possibly to OEM 2024 and 2025 which we migrated to from OEM 2022 at the beginning of the year.Cant Connect to server after powercut

Hi Microvellum. Just wanted to know if anyone else has had the problem of a tool stopping before it proceeds to its first cutting operation. Since we installed foundation library it seems as though tool 7 on both our machines sometimes stops at the pointStaircase Expansion - Tread/Riser Pocket
I must be missing something but can't find what it is. The treads & risers are not pockiting into the string? I've check all settings but no success. Anybody no why?How does everyone do Shop Drawings with View Ports
We've recently started using Microvellum, coming from software where each wall created its own view. We're running into an issue with our shop drawings, particularly when trying to show the inside of an island. When we switch to a back view in the viewport,Replacing Products Best Practice
Hi all. Was wondering what you guys consider best practice for replacing products in an existing older job with newer / latest versions of the same product (but named and saved differently). Right now updating the library products and adding a suffixHow long would it take you to process ~500 cabinets into a Work Order?
We process approx. 9000 cabinets per week. We have work orders that range in size from 10 cabinets to 1500 cabinets. We are struggling with the slow speed in which Work Orders get created (500 cabts would take around 5 hours). Processing the batch isCANNOT PROCESS COMPOSITE.DWG
Any one have any reason why this happens. Please see below.Work order summary by batch
I would like a report that shows only the products, hardware, sheets etc... used in a single batch of a work order. How can this be accomplished?Next Page
