This task shows how to automatically create walls
from an existing solid. |
|
-
Click the
Walls Recognition icon
-
Select a surface as the reference wall.
We selected the top surface.
|
|
The Wall Recognition Definition dialog box is displayed.
-
Choose the Wall creation mode:
-
Part body recognition: the whole solid is
processed and walls are created wherever possible
-
Only selected faces: only explicitly selected
faces of the solid are processed and the corresponding walls are created.
For the purpose of this scenario, choose Part body
recognition. |
|
|
The Reference wall is indicated in the
Walls Recognition Definition dialog box for information only (it is grayed
out). |
|
-
Do not select any face as the Compulsory walls.
-
Choose the As cut out wall option as the
Internal profiles recognition mode. This means that only walls with inner
profiles are generated, and not walls and cutout features.
-
Uncheck the Generate Bends button to avoid
creating bends automatically.
|
|
-
Click OK.
The walls are generated from the geometry.
The Walls Recognition.1 feature is added to the tree view.
|
|
|
|
At the same time, the Sheet Metal parameters are
created, deduced from the Part geometry. |
|
-
Double-click Sheet Metal Parameters.1 in the
Specification Tree.
The Sheet Metal Parameters dialog box is displayed.
-
Select the Bend Extremities tab and choose
Maximum. This will calculate the bend between the furthest
opposite edges of the supporting walls.
-
Click OK to validate.
