Model

The Model section provides commands for managing the creation and modification process.

This page discusses:



Carton Parameters
Specifies parameters to create carton features.
See Defining Parameters.


Positioned Sketch
Creates a positioned sketch.
See Part Design User's Guide: Creating a Positioned Sketch


Element Mapping
Uses elements from a sketch to create a geometrical object in the unfolded or folded view.
See Mapping Elements.


Point
See Flyout for Creating Reference Elements.


Panel
Creates a panel from a sketch.


Extrude
Creates an extrusion from a sketch.
See Creating an Extrusion.


Panel From Edge
Creates panels using the edge of an existing reference panel or extrusion.
See Creating Panels from Edges.


Fold
Generates folds based on a line.
See Creating Folds from a Line.


Cutout
Extrudes a profile and removes the material resulting from the extrusion.
See Creating Cutouts.


Corner
See Flyout for Creating Corners.


Remove Fold
Removes fold faces and simplify edges.
See Removing Fold Faces.


Glue
Glues two or more coplanar faces.
See Gluing Faces.


Manage Fold Angles
Modifies the fold angle values.
See Modifying Fold Angles.


Mirror
See Flyout for Mirroring and Creating Patterns.


Translation
See Flyout for Transforming Geometry.


Extraction
Creates a midsurface extraction.
See Generating an Extraction.


Nesting
Positions parts on a cardboard sheet to maximize the number of parts that can be produced on this sheet.
Unfold the 3D carton shape, define the nesting parameters, and then launch the computation.
See Optimizing the Number of Parts on a Cardboard Sheet.

Flyout for Creating Corners



Corner
Rounds off sharp edges.
See Creating Corners.


Chamfer
Cuts off sharp edges of a shape.
See Creating Chamfers.

Flyout for Mirroring and Creating Patterns



Mirror
Mirrors a feature.
See Mirroring Geometry.


Rectangular Pattern
Creates rectangular patterns of a feature.

User Pattern
Duplicates a feature anywhere.
See Creating User-Defined Patterns.

Flyout for Transforming Geometry



Translation
Translates geometry along a vector.
See Creating Translations.


Rotation
Rotates geometry about an axis.
See Creating Rotations.


Symmetry
Transforms geometry with a symmetry operation.
See Creating Symmetries.


Axis to Axis
Transforms geometry positioned according to a given axis system onto a new axis system.
See Transforming Elements from an Axis to Another .
