Ribbon: 3D Model tab Modify panel Bend Part

Bend Line

The tangency line at which the existing part transitions into the deformation area of the bend feature. The line about which the feature hinges or folds.

Uses one of three input combinations to define the feature. When you select a combination from the drop-down list, the dialog box fields change dynamically.

Radius + Angle

Creates a feature using values you specify. The radius defines the size of the bend curve between the two sides. The angle defines the position of the two sides.

Radius + Arc Length

Creates a feature using values you specify for Radius, and Arc Length, which defines the length of the curve.

Arc Length + Angle

Creates a feature using values you specify for Arc Length and Angle. The Arc Length defines the length of the curve. The angle defines the position of the two sides.

Side

Flips the side of the part to bend.

Direction

Flips the direction of the bend up or down.

Bend Minimum

When the bend line intersects multiple portions of the part body, use to specify which portions to bend.
