Surfaces and expansions

How to position in the drawing

Templates

Templates are required for plates which need mechanical processing (bending or forming) to obtain the desired shape.

We need templates in the following situations:

• Single curvature (bending) with constant radius - no template required, give bending info on plate.
• Single curvature (bending) without constant radius - 1 template required.
• Double curvature (forming) - minimum 3 templates required.

Template types

• Bow Fashion - for plates which are on the center line and have symmetry around the center line (for example a bow cone)
• Standard - all other plates:
  • Create the templates on the reference lines, as perpendicular to the surface as possible, or if this is not applicable:
  • Use Auto-Level

Template label

• Plate Name
• Marking Line Name
• Bracket Angle

Template name is plate name + reference line name or, when using Auto-Level, plate name + T1 (T2, T3, etc.)

Template style is Plate

Edge margin 50mm

    • Type Bow Fashion for templates with symmetry at CL, or
    • Type Standard for templates with non-symmetry at CL, then
    • use reference lines for templates
    • use Auto-Level templates only when:
      • the shape is not sufficient defined with reference lines
      • the angle of the templates at the plate becomes to small
    • Style Plate
    • Template name is plate name + reference line name, or
    • Template name is plate name + marking line name (T1, T2, etc.)
    • No Edge Margin
    • Indicate sightline angle
    • Sightline arrow direction to CL or UP
    • Bow fashion CL template to have an arrow indicating the top
