Extrusion

To generate an Extrusion on an object in the Main Menu select New Entity - > Generation  - > Extrusion

 

To create an Extrusion (Prism) you should define the Base Shape (a basis of the extrusion), the Vector (a normal of the extrusion) and the Height of extrusion.  

The Result of the operation will be a GEOM_Object (edge, face, solid or compsolid).

TUI Command : geompy.MakePrismVecH(Base, Vector, Height)

Arguments: Name + 1 shape (vertex, edge, wire, face or shell) serving as base object + 1 vector (for direction of the extrusion) + 1 value (dimension).

 

 

NB! The is another way to create an Extrusion, which is currently accessible only via TUI commands.

You can define the Extrusion by the Base Shape and the Start and End Point of the Vector  (in this way you don't need to create it in advance).

TUI Command: geompy.MakePrism(Base, Point1, Point2)

 

 

Examples:

 

Base Shape                                                          Prisms

 

 

Our TUI Scripts provide you with useful examples of creation of Complex Geometric Objects.
