User Settings (Optional)

You can change the settings for each user, helping streamline your use of the meviy platform. The settings may vary depending on which service you are using.

You can change the navigation functions assigned to the mouse buttons to better suit your CAD software, set how tapped holes are identified and customize the default settings for quote specifications for cutting services such as external shape tolerances, dimensional tolerances and hole precision. You can also set up email notifications at certain points when using the FA Mechanical Parts service.

User Menu

1. Hover over your username and click [User Settings] from the User Menu.

2. Select the settings menus that you want to customize and change the settings on each menu screen.

3. Click [Save settings] to save the changes.

Notification

Set whether you want to receive email notifications at
certain points when using the FA Mechanical Parts service.

  • When requesting a manual quote: When a manual quote is requested through the FA Mechanical Parts
    service
  • When the order is confirmed: When an order is confirmed via the FA Mechanical Parts service
Authority settings for part number

You can set the visibility of issued part numbers and the
purchase permission settings.

  • Permissions for others to view issued part numbers: If you select [Share], your projects for
    which a part number has been issued will be available to view by other users and will be
    searchable by part number.
  • Permissions for purchasing issued part numbers: If you select [Issue part numbers that can be
    purchased by anyone], other users will be able to purchase on the Misumi web order system platform the models that
    you create by using the issued part number.
Automatic Hole Type Recognition
  • This is a setting for the service to automatically recognize the hole type from 3D CAD data and reflect it in the quotation conditions.
  • By default, it automatically recognizes tapped holes by detecting the hole shape and ‘hole diameter’ of the model. You can set your CAD software to recognize the tapped hole more smoothly.
  • You can also change the settings to automatically recognize the hole type from the hole color.
  • *Currently, the color attribute linkage is only supported for models designed in SOLIDWORKS and iCAD SX.Furthermore, you can change the settings to automatically recognize the hole type from the CAD’s hole attribute.
  • *Currently, the hole attribute linkage is only supported for models designed in SOLIDWORKS.
Processing Method Selection SettingsYou can set the processing method to be automatically assigned to a preferred processing method when the 3D data is uploaded.
CNC Milling Quotation SettingsYou can customize the initial settings for the
quoting specifications used in cutting services, including external tolerances, dimensional tolerances
and hole precision.
Processing Method SelectionYou can set the processing method to be automatically assigned to a preferred processing method when the 3D data is uploaded.
Quotation Settings for MilledPartsInitial Quotation ConditionsConfigure the settings for materials, surface treatments, and surface roughness (roughness and symbols) for initial quotations.
External TolerancesSet the tolerances for external dimensions. By default, the tolerances can be reflected in the 3D Viewer external dimensions.
Dimensional TolerancesSet the tolerances for areas with additional dimensions. You can set the tolerances in the dialog (pull-down menu).
Tapped holeSet the effective depths of tapped (through and blind) holes. You can set the effective depths for each material category.
Precision HoleSet the five fit tolerance ranges, frequently used fit tolerance ranges and effective depths to be displayed in the pull-down menu for precision through and blind holes.
Slotted HolesSet the five fit tolerance ranges and frequently used fit tolerance ranges to be displayed in the pull-down menu for slotted holes.
Quotation Settings for Round Object MachiningQuotation Settings for Round Object MachiningConfigure the settings for materials, surface treatments, and surface roughness (roughness and symbols) for initial quotations.
Add DimensionsSet the tolerances for areas with additional dimensions. You can set the tolerances in the dialog (pull-down menu).
