Spinal Bend - WF4

It's been years since I created a spinal bend and I've been trying to
help a coworker create one in a part.  My memory of the commands and
their function is failing me.



Anyone got a link or PDF of a 'how to' on spinal bends to refresh my
memory?



Thanks,



Doug Schaefer

Hi Doug,


Attached is an image of a living-hinge using the spinal bend (Pro-E WF 3.0). In the config.pro, the option allow_anatomic_features is set to yes. I used a family table to show both the opened and closed positions of the model.


I will be back in Columbus on Monday (in Dayton today). As the spinal bend is challenging to create, and If you still need help and are willing to pay for consulting expenses, I would be happy to come to your office and help you model this feature next week.


Regards,


Chris Thompson
