Creating Profiles

You can create profiles on the boundary of a stamping part, to compute the addendum surface later on.

  1. From the Die Face section of the action bar, click Profile .
  2. Select an axis system (stamping direction) and the surface.
  3. Select vertices and use the context toolbar to create profiles.

    Note: You can create profiles, or planes, or points.

  4. Edit the profiles:
    • From the context toolbar (constraints, type of profile, creation mode, parameters).
    • From the Robot (orientation, length).
      • You can rotate profiles along the Y direction, in the UW plane.
      • You can align the Z direction of a profile with the Z direction of the input axis-system.
    • For boss profiles, edit the parameters from the tree.

A Profile Set geometrical set is created.
