Weld Design lets you model welds in assemblies. The different types of welds you can create are simple (fillet) or butted (square butt, V-butt, bevel butt and so on) and are supported in ANSI standard. | |
To create a weld, you need to determine the following via a Creation dialog box specific to each weld type: | |
Its parameters such as height, angle, surface shape, annotation display and so on. They are all available in the Parameters tab of the creation dialog box. |
|
The reference geometry, that is the components to be welded, see Geometry to be used for Creating Welds. |
|
Its type (dashed or not): use the Type tab. |
|
Its associated material: use the Material tab. |
|
Its location in the specification tree: use the Connection tab (Joint and Joint Body options). |
|
Weld features are associative with the reference geometry. This means that if geometrical elements change, weld features reflect the change. | |
