Creating Twin Joggles

You can create twin joggles on a web or a surfacic flange.

A twin joggle is a feature embedding two joggles with the same depth value and direction, and opposite runout directions. You can create a twin joggle on a closed surface or inside another twin joggle.


Before you begin: Create a web with a surfacic flange and two planes.
  1. From the Model section of the action bar, click Twin Joggle .
  2. Select the surfacic flange or the web.
  3. Select the planes for both joggles.
    The twin joggle is previewed:

  4. Define the twin joggle type.

    Inside Planes

    Outside-inside Planes

    Inside-outside Planes

  5. Optional: To define a compensation, select the Apply compensation check box.
    For more information, see Compensations on a Twin Joggle.
  6. Define the offset type
    OptionDescription
    Depth Defines a gap between the support surface and the joggle offset surface.

    You can reverse the depth direction either by clicking Depth Direction in the dialog box or the arrow in the 3D area.

    Surface Creates an offset surface.

    For more information, see Creating Joggles by Selecting Offset Surfaces.

  7. For each joggle, define the following parameters:
    OptionDescription
    Runout Length of the joggle area.
    Clearance Gap between the joggle plane and the end of the joggle area.
    Start Radius Radius value at the start of the joggle area.
    End Radius Radius value at the end of the joggle area.
    Notes:
    • If you modify the depth, the runout adjusts automatically, thanks to the formula applied to the runout parameters. To manually modify it, right-click the Runout box, and select Formula > Deactivate in the context menu.
    • If the support is a closed surface, the Twin Joggle Direction icon and an arrow appear in the dialog box and in the 3D area to reverse the direction of the twin joggle.
  8. Click OK.


Warning: Two twin joggles cannot intersect, and a single joggle cannot be created inside a twin joggle.
