      Creo Parametric 3.0 Basics - Part 2 - Tutorial Books

      Basic Features

      Basic features are used to create basic and simple parts. Most of the times, they form the base for complex parts as well. These features are easy to create and require a single sketch. Now, you will learn the commands to create these features.

      The topics covered in this chapter are:

      Extrude Features

      Revolve Features

      Datum planes

      More Options in the Extrude and Revolve commands

      6.jpg Extrude

      Extrusion is the process of taking a two-dimensional profile and converting it into 3D by giving it some thickness. A simple example of this would be taking a circle and converting it into a cylinder.

      Once you have created a sketch profile or profiles you want to Extrude, activate the Extrude command (On the ribbon, click Model tab > Shapes panel > Extrude).

      Click on the sketch profile to add thickness to it.

      1.jpg

      On the Extrude dashboard, type-in a value in the Depth box.

      2.jpg

      You can also click and drag the Extrude handle that appears on the preview. This changes the extrude thickness

      4.jpg

      (or) Double-click in the value box that appears on the preview and type-in the Extrude depth.

      5.jpg

      Click the Reverse direction button next to the Depth box, if you want to reverse the extrusion direction.

      If you want to add equal thickness on both sides of the sketch, then select the Both Sides option from the drop-down next to the Depth box.

      6.jpg7.jpg

      Click the green check on the dashboard to complete the Extrude feature.

      7.jpg Revolve

      Revolving is the process of taking a two-dimensional profile and revolving it about a centerline to create a 3D geometry (shapes that are axially symmetric). While creating a sketch for the Revolved feature, it is important to think about the cross-sectional shape that will define the 3D geometry once it is revolved about an axis. For instance, the following geometry has a hole in the center.

      4.jpg

      This could be created with a separate Cut or Hole feature. But in order to make that hole part of the Revolved feature, you need to sketch the centerline of revolution so that it leaves a space between the profile and the centerline.

      5.jpg

      After completing the sketch, activate the Revolve command (On the ribbon, click Model tab > Shapes panel > Revolve).

      Select the sketch, if not already selected. The sketch will be revolved by full 360 degrees.

      8.jpg

      If you want to enter an angle of revolution, type-in a value in the Angle box on the dashboard.

      12.jpg9.jpg

      On the dashboard, click the green check to complete the Revolved feature.

      50.jpg Project

      This command projects the edges of a 3D geometry onto a sketch plane.

      Activate the Sketch mode by selecting a plane or model face.

      On the ribbon, click Sketch tab > Sketching panel > Project.

      On the Type dialog, select the Single, Chain, or Loop option.

      Click on the edges of the model geometry to project them on to the sketch plane.

      Click Close on the Type dialog.

      51.jpg

      The projected element will be orange in color and fully constrained.

      Complete the sketch and exit the Sketch mode.

      52.jpg

      Creating Extruded Cuts

      Creating Extruded cuts is similar to extruded features.

      Draw a sketch on a plane or a model face.

      Activate the Extrude command.

      Select
