What's New?
New Functionality
-
Autodrafting (for casting)
- The Automatic draft
capability speeds up the draft angle process to manage the
whole part in one shot and to capture higher level semantic.
Enhanced Functionalities
-
Autofilleting with
Parting Element
- The Automatic Filleting capability can involve parting lines and parting
surfaces. A parting line is a chain of sharp edges included on a parting
surface. These edges are not rounded. The sharp edges that are incident to
the parting line are rounded. This operation modifies the parting line in
such a way that it remains on the parting surface.
-
Draft Both Sides Neutral/Neutral Fitted
- The Fitted computation method is available if you
are using the Neutral/Neutral
mode. It performs a draft operation on two opposite sides of
the part while adjusting the resulting faces on the parting element you
chose.
-
Draft Both Side: Additional
Tolerance for Forging Process
- The resulting drafted faces of a draft both sides fitted
are adjusted on the parting surface. This constraint may lead to
transversal sharp edges.
In some cases (Forging for instance), this constraint may not be useful
and these transversal sharp edges may be unwanted. In such cases, you
may need to set the Parting Element Adjustment to remove some
transversal sharp edges.
-
Draft Both Side: Automatic Relimitation
- This capability is applicable when the ribbon propagation
encounters the first twist in the draft skin while creating a draft for a
single body. It will reduce some steps and design time.
With this capability, drafts will not fail in case of twist, but instead
drafts the maximum ribbon and leaves undrafted the twisted zones.
-
Fillet face-face hold-curve with keep edge
- You can specify the edges of support body to be
kept and creates fillet surfaces with Hold Curve and Keep Edge as
support wherever necessary.
