Having Problems Creating Rib! Please Help.
(OP)
Hello All,
I am trying to create a rib between a flat wall and a cylindrical surface (image attached), but not able to achieve desired result as some material remains on the rib portion which avoids a smooth blend. Please help. Also there is a 2deg draft on the cylindrical surface.
Thanks in Advance.

Is there any other simpler straight forward method like a rib feature we have in Solidworks?
RE: Having Problems Creating Rib! Please Help.
Thanks for your your reply. I tried to delete faces and it looks good at first sight (Image 1). But when I try to look at the rib from bottom, there is still some material left over (Image 2). When I try to blend the edges you can easily find out that there is not a smooth blend between the rib and the cylindrical feature (Image 3). If I first delete faces and then trim off extra material, it still does not serve my purpose (Image 4). Please suggest.
Thanks in Advance.

In NX, the "dart" command might do what you need. Without seeing your model, I'd have a hard time recommending a "simpler" method.

In this model, you connect a "slanted" planar face to a circular face, what is your expectation of the resulting geometry , should the resulting edge be circular or linear ?

Tomas

I am the kind of guy that always likes to minimize the number of features, so this one is my kind of thing.
No curves or projections, just sketches and features.
