Section cut -But below pitch circle in gears
Section cut -But below pitch circle in gears
(OP)
Hi guys
I have a issue kind of very urgent. I would appreciate if any one can throw some light on this.
I got a spiked wheel kind of design,in which I do not want to show the profile above the pitch circle in the section cut. Can I do it in V5?
Is there any option that would allow me to define this?
If so , how do I define the pitch circle in drafting( is it in part design or in drafting)? and there by relate asking it to ignore the part above it in sectioning.
I know I can ask catia to ignore sectioning of a part in an assembly by chosing one of the options do not cut in section in drafting.But,in a single part can we define this way.
I have come across some standard drawings drafted this way( Probably in autocad).
I would really appreciate a reply. Please let me know if you are not clear.
Thanks

I'm not sure if this is what you are asking for, but it's worth a shot.
RE: Section cut -But below pitch circle in gears
thank you very much for a quick reply.
But like I said ,overload properties works great in a product mode when we dont want a particular part not to be sectioned.
I am talking about seperating the section view in a single part. It is not a product.With in a independent part,I need to know if I can control the sectioning ,i.e ask catia to not section some area with in the part.
I am sorry If Iam vague in the first post.
Thanks

No, I am not aware of any way to do what you are asking. Sorry :-(

If so use offset section cut instead of offset section view to make the view.
