To Create a Punch Axis Point
1. Make sure that you have set the punch_axis_points configuration option to yes.
2. In Sketcher, in the Sketching group, click Point to create a construction point or in the Datum group, click Point to create a datum point.
 
Both Point tools create punch axis points. However, the Datum Point tool also creates an axis.
The punch axis point moves with the placement plane of its parent feature during the unbend and bend back operations.
3. Place the construction point or datum point and then continue defining the cut, punch, or notch feature.
 
After a sheet metal cut is created with punch axis points, Creo Parametric does not check for the punch_axis_points configuration option.
You cannot remove geometry axis points by setting the punch_axis_points configuration option to no.
