Detailed Description

Represents a builder for a NXOpen.Features.Thicken feature.

This allows creation and editing of a Thicken feature which takes a set of faces and offsets them along their normals to create a solid body which has constant thickness. Since this can not be done precisely for the supported geometry types there is a tolerance to specify the accuracy of the result. Inputs to this class can be convergent objects.

Property Documentation

unsafe bool NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.ApproximateOffset
getset

Returns or sets the "approximate offset surface" or "resolve self-intersections using patches" option.

The option to approximate offset surfaces for thickening operation is renamed to "resolve self-intersections using patches". This option is available for editing pre-NX8 thicken features only. The value set by the user for this option is ignored for thicken features created from NX8 onwards and its value will always be set to true internally for thicken features created in NX8 and later.

License requirements to set this property: solid_modeling ("SOLIDS MODELING") OR cam_base ("CAM BASE") OR insp_programming ("INSPECTION PROGRAMMING")

unsafe NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.BooleanOperation NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.BooleanOperation
get

Returns the boolean operation.

The boolean operation associated with the Thicken feature

Created in NX5.0.0

License requirements: None.

unsafe NXOpen.ScCollector NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.FaceCollector
get

Returns the faces to thicken.

A list of one or more faces to thicken.

Created in NX5.0.0

License requirements: None.

unsafe NXOpen.Expression NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.FirstOffset
get

Returns the first offset.

The first offset for the Thicken feature. A positive value is applied along the normal of the face to be thickened. Negative values are applied in the opposite direction. The difference between the first and second offset must be non-zero.

License requirements: None.

unsafe NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.TwoExpressionsSectionSetList NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.RegionSectionList
get

Returns the list of SC_section The sections with corresponding expression for the Thicken feature

Created in NX9.0.0

License requirements: None.

unsafe NXOpen.Section NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.RegionToPierce
get

Returns the section for regions to pierce The section associated for the Thicken feature

Created in NX9.0.0

License requirements: None.

unsafe bool NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.RemoveGashes
getset

Returns or sets the remove gashes option.

If the option is selected, Thicken will heal the input and attempt the operation on the healed input. If after healing the input, the Thicken operation succeeds, the Part Navigator will indicate as such with an information symbol and an entry in the Alert column.

unsafe bool NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.ReverseDirection
getset

Returns or sets the reverse direction.

A flag to indicate whether the offset direction is reversed with respect to the normal of the face to be thickened.

License requirements to set this property: solid_modeling ("SOLIDS MODELING") OR cam_base ("CAM BASE") OR insp_programming ("INSPECTION PROGRAMMING")

unsafe NXOpen.Expression NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.SecondOffset
get

Returns the second offset.

the second offset for the Thicken feature.

Created in NX5.0.0

License requirements: None.

unsafe double NXOpen.Features.ThickenBuilder.Tolerance
getset

Returns or sets the tolerance.

The maximum allowable distance between the true theoretical sheet and the body created to approximate it.
