Creating a Functional Surface Template

Functional Surface Template Creation lets you create a functional surface template to define the important surfaces and possible failures due to change in the surface attributes.

  1. Under Characteristics, enter name and specify function related to the surface.

    Note: You can define functions using Data Setup.

  2. Under Geometry:
    1. Define the template by selecting surfaces.
    2. From the Feature type list, select the type of feature if not computed automatically.
  3. Under (Size), Form, Roughness, select one of the available options to define the intrinsic geometrical tolerance specifications and the possible failures caused due to poor tolerance management.

    Note: These options are visible only if 3D Tolerancing & Annotation is installed.

  4. Under More Characteristics, enter template's type and description.
