TUTORIAL: About Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire Boundary Blend Feature

Version: Pro/E Wildfire, Wildfire 2.0, Wildfire 3.0, Wildfire 4.0

Boundary blend is an advanced surfacing tool in Pro/ENGINEER. Starting from Pro/E Wildfire, boundary blend has enhanced with new dashboard interface.

 

Boundary blend allows you to create a quilt from boundaries in one or two directions (U & V). The minimum curves / edges for one direction boundary blend quilt are 2 and the minimum curves / edges for two direction boundary blend quilt are 3. Apart of that, internal curves let you to create smooth boundary blend quilt thru the internal curves.

Boundary blend quilt can be controlled by constraining it to the surrounding surface / quilt. You can set the constrain conditions of a boundary to either free, tangent, curvature or normal. Other than that, the control point option gives you the flexibility to create quilt without scarifying the design concept.
