This section explains and illustrates how to create and use various kinds of swept walls, i.e. walls based on a given profile that is swept along a spine.
Create a flange: select a spine, and set the radius, length, and angle values. | |
Create a hem: select a spine, and set the radius, and length values. | |
Create a tear drop: select a spine, and set the radius, and length values. | |
Create a swept flange: select a spine, and a user-defined profile | |
Redefine swept walls limits: choose the Relimited type, and select a point lying on the spine or a plane normal to the spine and intersecting it as limits |
Whatever the type of the swept wall you wish to create, you first need to select one or more contiguous edges to make up the spine along which the profile, either pre- or user-defined, is to be swept. You can: |
