Hey everyone,

 

sometimes I have to create area connectors (for adhesive) on sheet metal parts. Those parts mostly have flanges, an area which is parallel to an corresponding area of another part. The two parts are connected at their two flanges.

I wonder how can I detect this flanges automatically and create area connectors at those flanges efficiently?

 

For Spotwelds there is the functionality 'Autopitch', which detects flanges and creates spotweld connectors according to parameters. Is there something similar for area connectors?

 

Does someone know an efficient way of creating area connectors?

    No one knows a solution? Does anyone at least have the same 'problem' or is interested in a smooth solution?
