Coat Part

Coat Part

Shell/2d segment application.

The function is generalised so that it will coat any solid or shell part(s) with either shells or segments. Furthermore, when coating solid parts with shells the option to coat internal faces is offered.

Any number of solid/shell parts may be selected through the respective object menus. For each coating operation, the new shells/segments created will always reside in a single part/set. Thus if two (or more) adjoining solid parts are selected and coated together (with the internal face option off for shell case) only the external faces will be coated.

Beam/1D segment application.

In 1D mode free edges of selected shell parts will be coated with beams or segments. The operation may be applied to edge of holes, free edges or all edges including internal. The function will not duplicate segments/beams.
