Faces modification

This command changes the faces by re sizing or moving them. It is useful, for example, to modify imported parts. For example, it is possible to re size a hold by changing its diameter and moving it.

 

Creation Stages / Use:

 

Click the icon or select the Shape > Other operations > Faces modification... command from the drop-down menu (or Modeling > Shape > Faces modification... in the assembly document).

 

  1. Select the Re size or Move option.

  2. Select the faces to modify.

  3. Enter the values.

  4. Validate.

 

 

Modifying faces creates a problem in the operations tree. It is then possible to edit the command to change the value.

 

 

Available Options:

 

 

  • For cylindrical and spherical faces, this option allows a spherical or cylindrical (or fillet) face's radius or diameter to be changed by entering either the desired radius/diameter by clicking Parameter or offset with respect to the selected face by clicking offset.

  • For conical faces, this option changes the angle or allows you to get an offset with respect to the selected face.

  • The offset option lets you offset any type of face by providing an offset value.

 

 

  • Drag: This option moves the translation face by "dragging" the material. You then have to select the direction and enter the value.

  • Revolve: This option moves the face by rotating it, "turning" the material. You then have to select the axis of rotation and enter the angle.

  • Draft: This option is for modifying a face by adding or modifying a draft. You must then select the reference plane and enter the draft angle.

 

 

This option allows to identify and modify straight and flat slots with or without bottom radius.

  • Length: Specify whether the modification is symmetric or right or left. Modify the value if necessary.

  • Width: Specify whether the modification is symmetric or right or left. Modify the value if necessary.

  • Depth: If the slot is not through, you can change its depth.

Modifying, deleting, activating, deactivating, and color changing are possible from the operations tree or the popup menu from the graphic.
