12.15.4. FE Film Annotation

This is the geometry dimension information for the thin plate.

You can set the starting position and no. of turns using this function.

Figure 12.238: Winding configuration (start path)

You can set the end position and no. of turns using this function.

Figure 12.239: Winding configuration (end path)

You can create various types of contact region using the following options:

One contact region
Thickness management is set to Congruent Thickness, using the same thickness for each layer (see below).
Figure 12.240: One contact region
Two contact regions
Thickness management is set to Congruent Thickness, using two different thicknesses for the layers (see below).
Figure 12.241: Two contact regions
Contact region per layer
Thickness management is set to Each Layer, in which case it does not matter if the thickness is the same or different for each layer (see below).

You can determine the location of the pole using three options:

Figure 12.243: Pole location: Top side

Figure 12.244: Pole location: Bottom side

Figure 12.245: Pole location: Both sides

Figure 12.246: Pole location: Both with different shapes

You can create four types of pole shape by adjusting the following variables:

Triangle
Condition: Width == H && L == 0.5 * Length

Figure 12.247: Pole shape: Triangle
Quadrangle
Condition: Width == H && 0< L < 0.5 * Length

Figure 12.248: Pole shape: Quadrangle
Pentagon
Condition: 0< H < Width && L == 0.5 * Length

Figure 12.249: Pole shape: Pentagon
Hexagon
Condition: 0< H < Width && 0< L < 0.5 * Length

Figure 12.250: Pole shape: Hexagon

This feature allows you to set pole-free sections at both ends of the film body.
