[Enhancement] 2. Check Surface Deformation

You can now indicate the direction and check for surface deformation. [Menu Bar: Advanced Tools/Check Surface Deformation]

X Direction

Y Direction

For Reference: Below is the result of using the former “Curvature” checking tool in the Polygon Mode.

New


As a measure to cope with incomplete cutting of concave fillets, two features to modify concave fillet have been introduced. [Menu Bar: Advanced Tools/Modify Concave Fillet]

[1] Offset

[2] Deform Fillet

Red: Free edges

Comparing before and after the modification

New [Enhancement] 3. Modify Concave Fillet

Concave fillets are recognized and selected automatically. You could also select concave fillets by changing their color beforehand.

R10

Incomplete

cutting

Modify Concave Fillet: Offset Method

R10.2

Difference in level.

Modify Concave Fillet: Deform Fillet Method

No difference in level. ≒R9.8


Automatically determine the direction without undercut in reference to the sheet geometry. [Menu Bar: Advanced Tools/Check Undercut]

Check the existence of undercut in the specified direction.

New [Enhancement] 4. Check Undercut

Area ratio between faces with undercut vs entire faces. Total number of faces with undercut. Zoom into each face with undercut.


[Enhancement] 5. Deform Center

Move the center of the geometry sheet in the Z+ direction and modify the entire shape of the model. [Menu Bar: Advanced Tools/Deform Center]

New

①Indicate the profile to lock

Anchored profile

Moving position

②Indicate the moving position and modify

Comparison of the model before and after deforming the center.


Examine interference and/or collision between multiple parts. [Menu Bar: Advanced Tools/Check Interference]

Red: Interference

Yellow-Green: Collision

New [Enhancement] 6. Check Interference


7-1. Gap Added "Gap" function to the Feature Recognition series. [Menu Bar: Advanced Tools/Feature Recognition/Gap]

New [Enhancement] 7. Feature Recognition


7-2. Change the Face Color at Once You can now change the face colors all at once in all the commands in the Feature Recognition series.

All the faces with the same color as the picked color will be configured as concave fillets.

Use for selection of concave fillets.

Use SHIFT key, and CTRL key.

[Enhancement] 7. Feature Recognition


[Enhancement] 9. View Operation

Double click an item on the list to zoom in.

[Enhancement] 8. Fillet Pane

In the fillet removal mode, now you can see Fillet and Blend in the list.

Use this function to review the remaining fillet and blend faces, after automatic

fillet removal.

Mouse view operation types now include [SOLIDWORKS], [Creo], and [Inventor].


CATPart, STEP, etc.

STL

Example 1) Compare metal mold model and machining simulation result.

→Review the unmachined corner part.

Example 2) Compare results of different simulation model.

→Review differences between analytic models.

STL

STL

Can also be used for reviewing

electrode creation part.

[Enhancement] 10. Compare Models

Now you can specify STL as the source (Src.) or target (Tgt.) in the Compare

Models mode.
