Patent ID: 11972524

Abstract:
This disclosure relates to method and system for generating tightest revolve envelope for a Boundary representation (B-rep) Computer-Aided Design (CAD) model. The method includes receiving a 2-dimensional (2D) point cloud within an XY-plane corresponding to each of a plurality of faces of the B-rep CAD model within an XYZ-space. The method further includes, for each of the plurality of faces, determining a concave hull shape for the 2D point cloud through a concave hull algorithm. The method further includes combining the concave hull shape corresponding to each of the plurality of faces of the B-rep CAD model through at least one of a Boolean operation and a stitching operation to obtain a tightest revolve profile of the B-rep CAD model. The method further includes revolving the tightest revolve profile about X-axis of the XYZ-space to obtain a tightest revolve envelope corresponding to the B-rep CAD model.
