Creating Flanged Cutouts

You can create flanged cutouts by specifying punch geometrical parameters.

Using this function, you can take advantage from the Library Browser to quickly search and instantiate general components classified in general libraries and classes.

Before you begin: Create a web and sketch a profile on its face.
  1. From the Refine section of the action bar, click Flanged Cutout .
  2. Select a profile.
    Notes:
    • If there is no existing profile, click Sketch to draw one.
    • You can also click Open catalog to insert a profile from a catalog. For more information, see Browsing the Sheetmetal Catalog.
  3. Define the following parameters:
    OptionDescription
    Height Total height
    Outer The height is computed from the bottom of the thickness to the outer boundary edge
    Inner The height is computed from the top of the thickness to the inner boundary edge
    Angle Draft angle
    Radius Inner bend radius
  4. To visualize the flanged cutout, click Preview.


  5. Optional: To create a flanged cutout without a fillet, clear Use fillet.


    Warning: If the sketch is not tangent continuous, you will not be able to design any other feature on the flanged cutout.
