Offline Blanking assumes the use of virtual coil stock. Stock width depends on the extent of the flat pattern (with addendum, if any) in the direction perpendicular to the coil flow for offline blanking, supplemented by edge margins, as well as (for 2-out parts) part spacing width. See Coil Width For more information. Stock thickness is based on part thickness.

aPriori assumes the required virtual stock can be obtained at the price per unit weight specified by the material property Default Cost per KG.

Note to VPE Administrators: Actual stocks are not supported. Do not add actual stock to a Sheet Metal--Hydroforming VPE.
