cornerpressrib.ide

Well, I was able to get this to work with one exception. I have another
flange on the part that is in line with the flange that has the rib. The
cut-extrusion in the .ide cuts through this flange. Is there any way to fix
this?

Oh, by the way, I downloaded this from cbliss.com. It would not work in
IV2010, so I opened it in IV11 and saved it. Then it worked fine except for
the cut-extrude not terminating correctly.

I tried JD's approach as in the cornerpressrib.ipt file he uploaded, but
can't get this to work. I can't even get the rib to taper.

Thank's

In order to have draft angle on rib the sketch line must be on a plane perpendicular to the direction of the rib (or would that be parallel?). Incidentally - SolidWorks doesn't have this limitation. Seems to me most every rib I ever saw has a draft.

If you can't figure it out attach what you have so far.

How did you create Work Plane1 in your .ipt without any work geometry?

Attached is the .ide example.

No .ide attachment.

I have no idea without seeing the file.

The .ipt is your part from another post. I was just wondering how you
created this work plane.

Make Sketch1 visible. You will see a construction line.
Start the workplane command and click on the construction line and then the xy plane.

Thanks JD. I got the rib to work, but cannot shell. The error: Modeling
failure: topology change while joining offset surfaces (self-intersecting or
degenerate). Try using smaller thickness.
Sorry, can't send the part.

This is a long shot since I don't have time to fool with trying to create a punch tool for 2010,
but since 2010 will support multi-body move and combine maybe you could create as a separate part imported to your part and Combine.
