Detailed Description

Represents the path the bead shape will be swept along.

To create a new instance of this class, use NXOpen.Weld.WeldBeadBuilder.NewPath

Created in NX7.5.0

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum NXOpen.Weld.WeldBeadPathBuilder.OffsetMethodType

Settings to indicate the desired offset method.

Enumerator
InFace	offset in selected primary faces
Centerline	centerline of overlapping sheets

Member Function Documentation

unsafe NXOpen.Spline NXOpen.Weld.WeldBeadPathBuilder.GetSweepPath ( )

inline

The portion of the preview curve that can be used to adjust the start or end limits.

Created in NX10.0.3

License requirements: None.

Returns: The sweep path curve used for setting limits.

unsafe void NXOpen.Weld.WeldBeadPathBuilder.UpdatePath	(	out bool	pointFound,
		out NXOpen.Point3d	evaluationPoint,
		out NXOpen.Vector3d	pathTangent,
		out NXOpen.Vector3d	faceNormalWithFin,
		out NXOpen.Vector3d	faceNormalOppositeFin
	)

inline

Computes the preview path, and evaluation information for indicating desired face side of the preview path.

Created in NX7.5.0

License requirements: None.

Parameters

pointFound	Point and evaluation results are valid
evaluationPoint	Point that reference vectors are computed at
pathTangent	Tangent to path at evaluationPoint
faceNormalWithFin	Normal if path is in direction of parasolid fin
faceNormalOppositeFin	Normal if path is opposite direction of parasolid fin.

unsafe bool NXOpen.Weld.WeldBeadPathBuilder.Validate ( )

inline

Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called.

If the component is not in a state to commit then an exception is thrown. For example, if the component requires you to set some property, this method will throw an exception if you haven't set it. This method throws a not-yet-implemented NXException for some components.

Created in NX3.0.1

License requirements: None.

Returns: Was self validation successful

Implements NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.IComponentBuilder.

Property Documentation

unsafe bool NXOpen.Weld.WeldBeadPathBuilder.CreateEndToStart

getset

Returns or sets the indication if the sweep should be created from the edge location to the start location.

True indicates the sweep will be created from the end to the start location of the path, false indicates the sweep will be from the start to the end location of the path. This option is only used if the path section is closed.

Created in NX7.5.0

License requirements to get this property: None.

License requirements to set this property: ugweld ("UG WELD")

unsafe NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.OnPathDimensionBuilder NXOpen.Weld.WeldBeadPathBuilder.EndPath

get

Returns the location at which to end the sweep of the bead shape.

Created in NX7.5.0

License requirements: None.

unsafe NXOpen.Expression NXOpen.Weld.WeldBeadPathBuilder.OffsetAlongNormal

get

Returns the offset along normal

Created in NX7.5.0
