Initializing Angle Cuts

Grid Angle Cut Init initializes the angle cuts to support manufacturing constraints.

  1. Select the Panel.
  2. Define the extreme vertex of the angle cut as a point or as the intersection of two curves.
  3. Click one arrow in the 3D area, or Next to define on which side the plies are extended.
  4. Define the Fiber draping angle from its value or the direction of a selected element.
  5. Define the minimum tape length.

  6. Define extrapolation lengths (sufficient to cross all the plies that have an angle cut).

    Important: Pick the vertices in proper order.

  7. Click Preview to verify the result.
