Create surface from 3D solid profile
Create surface from 3D solid profile
(OP)
I am running Pro/E W5 and am wondering if it's possible to create a surface out of a solid face of a component. I'm trying to create geometry for a 2D axisymetric simulation through ANSYS via the Pro/E interface for ANSYS. One way I've read to do this is create a sketch of the desired profile and then create a surface using the styles feature. The problem is that my geometry is extremely complex and the profile I want to simulate as a 2D axisymetric model is a result of a dozen or so other features. If I take a slice out of the revolved part, is there wa way to create a surface from the profile face? I've attached a picture of the geometry to give you an idea of what I'm taking about.
