In this article you will learn how to deal with connection problems with Sikla-Pressix CC41 profiles within SuCri Module 3 in Advance Steel. We explain the background of the availability of connections and the process of implementation by the manufacturer.

Prerequisites

  • Installed SuCri Module 3 in Advance Steel.
  • Use of Sikla-Pressix CC41 profiles (e.g. Pressix CC41 MS41/41/2.0).

Step-by-step guide

  1. Identify the problem: Check whether, when connecting a Pressix CC41 profile to another component (e.g. an HEB100 beam) via the Selection-Method, no preselection appears.

    Expected result: In the current configuration, the desired connection (e.g. clamping bracket SB 41) is not displayed in the menu.

  2. Check the background: Make sure whether it is a SiFramo profile (these are stored by default) or a Pressix CC41 profile. For the latter, specific connections such as the clamping bracket SB 41 on HEB beams are currently not yet stored in the SuCri database.
  3. Contact the manufacturer: Since new connections are not integrated automatically, they must be commissioned specifically. Contact the manufacturer (Sikla) directly and request the desired connection solution.
  4. Wait for implementation: After the manufacturer has officially commissioned IntegaDesign with the integration, the connection is programmed. After a corresponding update, the new connections are available in SuCri Module 3.

Important notes

  • Best practice: Until the implementation, only use the connection types that are already present and stored.
  • Note: The integration takes place exclusively after an official manufacturer commission by Sikla to IntegaDesign.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing selection: If no profiles are available for selection via the Selection-Method, this is usually due to a component combination not yet stored in the SuCri database.
