Free Form Surface after part flip.

Recommended Posts

Has anybody flipped a part in the program and then tried using a free form surface after flipping? Calypso tells me "Not enough points" and wants to put the actual points in the original alignment and I can't seem to get this to work. I've got the features on the correct alignment.

In the picture, I've flipped the part 180° about the X from the original alignment and I've recalled the curve points in yellow. I've also tried manually probing as well as using point sets. The issue seems to be the free from surface feature itself.

Any suggestions?

I have no idea how far is your part physically moved in machine space, but you can try increasing search distance for points.

Otherwise i would tryout adjusted alignment reflecting actual state.

I believe that Freeform reads and extracts the nominals from the CAD model directly. Moving the CAD model may be causing your problem. Maybe use more than 1 model?
