Extrusion Fuse¶
Extrusion Fuse feature extrudes selected objects along their normals or the selected axis and fuses the result with other objects.
To perform Extrusion Fuse in the active part:
select in the Main Menu Features - > Extrusion Fuse item or
click Extrusion Fuse button in the toolbar
The following property panel will be opened:
There are three variants of the property panel for Extrusion Fuse depending on the chosen option:
By Sizes extrudes objects by specifying sizes.
By Bounding Planes extrudes objects by specifying bounding planes and offsets.
Through All extrudes base objects to pass through all objects fuse with.
By sizes¶
Base objects - contains a list of objects selected in the Object Browser or in the Viewer, which will be extruded.
Axis - if selected, it will be the direction of extrusion, otherwise objects normals will be used.
To size - size for extrusion in the direction.
From size - size for extrusion in the opposite direction.
Fuse with - contains a list of objects which will be fused with the result of extrusion.
TUI Commands:
-
model.
addExtrusionFuse

- Returns
Created object.
-
model.
addExtrusionFuse

number – Size of extrucion.
list – A list of objects to fuse with.
- Returns
Created object.
-

addExtrusionFuse
(part, objects, toSize, fromSize, objectsToFuse)¶ - Parameters
part – The current part object.
list – A list of objects for extrusion.
number – “Size to” value.
number – “Size from” value.
list – A list of objects to fuse with.
- Returns
Created object.
-
model.
addExtrusionFuse
(part, objects, direction, toSize, fromSize, objectsToFuse)¶ - Parameters
part – The current part object.
list – A list of objects for extrusion.
object – A direction of extrusion
number – “Size to” value.
number – “Size from” value.
list – A list of objects to fuse with.
- Returns
Created object.
Result¶
The Result of the operation will be an extruded shape:
See Also a sample TUI Script of Create Extrusion Fuse by sizes operation.
By bounding planes¶
Base objects - contains a list of objects selected in the Object Browser or in the Viewer, which will be extruded.
Axis - if selected, it will be the direction of extrusion, otherwise objects normals will be used.
To plane - a planar face can be selected to bound extrusion from one side.
To offset - offset for extrusion or for bounding plane, if selected.
From plane - a planar face can be selected to bound extrusion from the other side.
From offset - offset for extrusion or for bounding plane, if selected.
Fuse with - contains a list of objects which will be fused with the result of extrusion.
TUI Commands:
-
model.
