MotoSim (for welding) and Welds in Solidworks assemblies

[bnemec]

Is anyone familiar with getting weld data from Solidworks assembly files to MotoSim for programming/simulation? We are using Weld Beads in the assembly model to call out welds. We used to just call out welds on the print but decided to try indicating weld beads in the model when we started with Solidworks. In theory, this should help the tool room with weld fixture design and we were under the impression that MotoSim would be able to import the weld data for start/stop points to reduce manual programming and be able to test weld conditions once the weld fixture is modeled instead of waiting until fixtures are built and loaded for first runs.
