Limiting Angle 

Sheet Metal > Sheet development > Param. > Limiting angle

When a sheet part is attached, each fillet is divided into polygon parts with a particular angle. This angle is referred to as the limiting angle. Dividing the fillet is a prerequisite for developing the sheet part. If the limiting angle selected is too small, you cannot develop the polyhedron.

The Limiting angle function enables you to set the angle for the division before adding a new sheet. The smaller the angle, the smoother the circular arc produced. The default setting for the limiting angle is 23°.

(1) Limiting angle 45°
(2) Limiting angle 10°
(3) Limiting angle 23°
