Hello together,
is it possible to get the splitline on an radius as a curve?
I use Creo Elements/Pro 5.
Many thx,
Michael
What your looking for is called a silhouette curve. It is a standard feature in the mold design package.
Not sure if there are any other packages that contain the functionality.
Not as a curve, but you can split the suirface there.
- Make a copy of the surfaces
- Create a trim feature that trims the surface, uses the draft direction plane as the split object and select the "silhouette' button on the trim dashboard.
- You can then chose one side, the other side or both to keep.
You can use the resultant edge or create a curve from that edge.
Copy the surfaces
Create a surface extrude that goes through the splitline.
Use the Intersect feature to get a curve where the two surfaces meet.
Hi Doug,
this one works verry well for me.
Many thx,
Michael
