MachiningOffset machOffset_MachiningAllowance_Machining_Allowance_1 | Each Machining Allowance is given a unique name. |
.mask = Maskname | Defines to which mask the offset refers. |
.offset = 0.001000 | Defines the thickness of the Machining Allowance in the chosen unit. |
Mask DesignSpace_machiningOffset offsetSpace = DesignSpace_machiningOffset | Defines the geometry of the intersection model including Machining Allowances. |
automaticFunctionalFacesDetection.positiveNonDesignDirection=true false | Functional Surfaces are automatically detected. These areas grow during an optimisation to guarantee sharp edges and functional surfaces after the intersection. If all functional surfaces have a Machining Allowance applied to them, this option should be deactivated. |
Symmetry
symmetry.x symmetry.y symmetry.z | x-axis as symmetry plane (Y-Z-Plane). y-axis as symmetry plane (X-Z-Plane). z-axis as symmetry plane (X-Y-Plane). |
symmetry.coordinateSystemBase = CoordSystem_Coordinate_System_1 | If the symmetry is to refer to a local coordinate system, the following command must also be entered (Coordinate_system_1 is the name of the local coordinate system and can vary). |
Loads and Constraints
The Loads and Constraints section collects all information regarding the loads and fixations applied to the different masks.
