BINDER
The functions in the BINDER menu are used to generate various types of binders. Figure 6.2 shows the types of binder available in the BINDER menu.
Figure 6.2 Binder Types
The outer or inner binder is associated with the outer or inner addendum; there can be only one outer binder and addendum pair in a project while there can be several inner binder and inner addendum pairs in a project if necessary.
1. TWO-LINE BINDER
Uses two orthogonal cross lines to define the binder shape.
2. FLAT BINDER
Uses a flat rectangular surface to define the binder.
3. CONICAL BINDER
Uses a conical surface with two radii to define the binder shape.
4. BOUNDARY LINE BINDER
Uses the part boundary line or user-selected/created line to define the binder.
5. FLANGE BINDER
Uses the flanges on the part to define the binder shape.
6. FREE FORM BINDER
Uses the binder section lines from selected locations on the screen to define the binder.
A detailed description of each function is given in the following section.
