Fillet Welds Tool Guides and Options

Fillet Welds Tool Guides

The following tool guides are available:


Select generation locations	This tool enables you to select geometry on which you want to define welds. Discovery automatically detects all welds on that geometry.
Select excluded locations	This tool enables you to select locations from which welds are excluded.

Fillet Welds Tool Options

The following options are available:


Size	The size of the weld.
Intermittent welds	Select if you want discontinuous welding.
Length	The length of each weld in the intermittent weld.
Pitch	The distance between the center of one weld to the next. Display-only.
Number	The number of welds. Display-only.
Minimum pitch	Select to define the minimum distance between the center of one weld and the next. This value must be greater than the length. If minimum pitch isn’t defined, the minimum distance defaults to 1.5 x weld length. For more information on how Discovery uses minimum pitch and limit number values to automatically adjust intermittent welds to geometry modifications, see Fillet Welds.
Limit number	Select to limit the number of welds along the weld length. For more information on how Discovery uses minimum pitch and limit number values to automatically adjust intermittent welds to geometry modifications, see Fillet Welds.
Name	The name for the weld definition. You can enter this name after the weld definition is created.
Detection distance	Select to modify the default weld detection distance on selected geometry, then enter Min and Max distance values.
Save to local library	Select to save the weld definition to a local library for re-use.
Remove from local library	Select to remove the weld definition from a local library.
