Description of the Tool

The Access Region Tool

...

supports the user

...

to create a Design Space dependant on an assembly and

...

all the different geometries present in this assembly. In

...

this assembly individual pats are selected to be consolidated

...

and a Design Space containing all these parts can be easily created with the Design Space Tool. This Design Space often includes areas of the

...

assembly that are occupied by

...

parts which won’t be consolidated

...

but nevertheless are part in the overall assembly. These parts are used to create void spaces in the Design Space. But just the removal of these parts is not enough because they have to be installed in the assembly or maintenance work

...

need to be

...

done.

...

Therefore, Access Regions are necessary and need to be created.

The Access Region Tool enables exactly this freedom with its two methods: Extrude Face following the normal and extrude a cross section following the normal.

  • The With the first method is the extrusion of a face simple geometries can be extruded by selecting the considered face and extruding it along its normal. This Region A scaling factor can also be scaled…be set as well to directly include a Clearance Region around this Access Region.

  • The second method is the extrusio extrusion of the a cross section of a solid. Especially more complicated geometries can be easily made accessible extruded this way and the accessibility is enabled. Again the , a scaling factor can be entered to allow for more space and freedom for later installation or maintenance work as a Clearance Region.
