About EndCut Extralength

Manufacturing EndCut features in this app generate during the Update In-Process Models command. Created EndCut features in this step have Adjustable as its Location Type.

This type is changeable through the EndCut tab in Edit Features.

Edit Features Command - Change of Location Type



  • In this case End Face fully uses, only Adjustable and Marked in the list.

  • In this case, End Face partially uses all the choices in the list.

Manufacturing EndCut behavior based on Location Type

  • Adjustable case - In case of Added Material / Fit-up / RootGap / Overlength applies on the Start | End.
    • Applied on Web: As below, regardless of volume type, the entire volume moves as the margin values(A) apply.
      • End Face fully uses all the EndCuts volume.

        A = Added Material [Start|End] Web - Fit-up [Start|End] Web – RootGap [Start|End] Web + Overlength [Start|End].
      • End Face partially uses the EndCuts volume.

        A = Added Material [Start|End] Web - Fit-up [Start|End] Web – RootGap [Start|End] Web + Overlength [Start|End]
    • Applied on Flange - EndCut volume does not move.
  • Fixed Case - In the case of Added Material / Fit-up / RootGap / Overlength applied on Start | End.

    Applied on web: The EndCut volume does not move. If End Face partially uses the EndCut volume:

    A = Added Material [Start|End] Web + Overlength([Start|End]) - Fit-up [Start|End] Web – RootGap [Start|End] Web.

  • Marked Case - In the case of Added Material / Fit-up / RootGap / Overlength applied on Start | End.

    Applied on web: EndCut volume does not move but marks on the web.



    A = Added Material [Start|End] Web + Overlength([Start|End]) - Fit-up [Start|End] Web – RootGap [Start|End] Web.

Workshop Document

  • Profile Fab Sketch - Geometry appeared in 3D(In-Process Models) reflects in the drawing.
  • Profile Content in XML:

    New Node EndCuts adds under Manufacturing as in this scenario.

    • EndCuts node is consisted of two EndCuts nodes.
    • EndCuts node has these attributes:
      • Side: Start or End must be the value. This is based BSU Start/End location.
      • LocationType: value fills as Adjustable, Marked, or Fixed.

Plate Data XML - These nodes add for each MarkedEndCut.

New marking nodes added for each MarkedEndCuts.

  • This marking node has below attributes:
    • Type: Displayed as MarkedEndCut.
    • Closed: Displayed as FALSE.
    • Side: Displayed as NearSide.
  • This node has <Geometry> and <Graphic> nodes in it. And filled by the logic as other marking nodes.
