Advanced Rounds 1

This ProE Round Tutorial explains the proper usage and techniques for creating Advanced Rounds.

Most users understand how to create a basic ProE Round feature. However, often times your part design may require some more advanced ProE Round geometry. Advanced rounds lend themselves well to molded and cast parts, as well as aesthetic features for Industrial Design. This 29 page ProE Round Tutorial will take you through the paces of how to utilize Advanced Rounds within ProE.

First off we begin by creating a variable ProE Round. A variable ProE Round changes in radius across the length or edge. It can be controlled by 2 or more radius values. We also introduce Ambiguity… This is created when a round has more than one possible outcome. This occurs when one reference surface touches the other reference surface in more than one location.

Other ProE Round types created include edge-chain, surface-to-surface, and more. Advanced Rounds use a higher complexity of geometry during the round creation. Not only can the edge have variable radius, but two rounds with different radiuses can intersect at a corner.
