Build a workcell floor

Purpose

Use the Resource Builder workbench to define a workcell floor that acts as the base for positioning other components.

The floor resource is created from imported geometry and then completed with adapters and properties for downstream layout setup.

Steps

1. Preparation

1.1 Create a new empty document (if needed)

If another document is already open in the running session, create a new empty document. If no document is open, you can skip this step.

Create a new document

Open the File menu and select New. If prompted, choose whether to save the currently open document, close it without saving, or cancel.
