Draping Algorithm Enhancements
Creo Parametric 11.0.0.0
User Interface Location: In the Composite Design environment, Click Draping Simulation.
Description
You can now perform a draping simulation on the ply shapes that were unsupported in earlier versions. Also, you can now generate better flat patterns.
The draping simulation capabilities are enhanced to remove the initial limitations. For example, you can select a location for the seed point such that the fixed warp fiber or the fixed weft fiber enters and exits the ply boundary multiple times.
You can use the Draping refinement option to improve the draping results for small plies on the relatively large layup surface.
Benefits
This enhancement enables you to perform the draping simulation and create better flat patterns for specific, previously difficult, or unsupported ply shapes.
