Example: Creating a Basic Draft
This example shows creating a basic Draft feature to add a draft angle of 10° to all sides of the part shown in the following illustration.
2. Select any side surface. Because all the side surfaces are tangent to each other, the draft automatically extends to all the surfaces around the part.
3. Click the
Draft hinges collector, and select the top plane as the draft hinge. The system also automatically uses the plane to determine the pull direction, and displays the preview geometry, as shown in the next illustration.
4. Type
10 in the
Angle 1 box. The system updates the preview geometry, as shown in the following illustration.
5. The draft removes material from the part surfaces. To flip the draft angle, click
reverse angle to the right of the
Angle 1 box to add or remove material. The draft now adds material, as shown in the next illustration.
6. Click
OK to create the Draft feature. The final geometry is shown in the following illustration.
