Cut out in boolen operation_Must we need solid body

[ptc-5398568]

For cut out in boolen opertion must we need two solid bodies? Can we do this from cutting surface body from solid one.

I have one surface model & I want to cut out from solid ? is it possible?

Attached file is my query.

I want to cut that surface part from solid part in assembly.

so that that will create die of that surface part . and I have only that surface part and I cant convert that into solid.

if I have both solid part then I can do this. but because of having one surface and one solid I'm unable to do this.

could anyone pls suggest solution?

Hi,

1.] Create cut out feature ... it enables you to copy quilt representing surface model into solid model.

2.] In solid model create Solidify (Remove material) feature. This feature enables you to subtract volume represented by quilt from solid geometry.

Hi,

see my previous reply. You can also try reparing your surface model.

Note: I cannot provide anhy other suggestion, because your problem is probably "data dependent".

You can copy the quilt into your part using Copy Geometry. Then use a Solidify to cut the material.
