•Guide Mother Body: Selects the mother body of linear guide by clicking B.
•Start Point: Defines the start point of linear guide.
•Second Point: Defines the second point of linear guide
•Imaginary Circle Edge: Defines an imaginary Circle Edge on start and/or end point of Linear Guide. The imaginary Circle Edge is a circle shape and located start/end point. And the center point of imaginary Circle Edge is located negative direction of contact (normal) direction. The contact force of the imaginary Circle Edge is added to Linear Guide. User can see the imaginary Circle Edge by clicking Preview.
•Edge: Defines Enable(Checked) or Disable(Unchecked) on the Start and/or End point.
•Radius: Defines a radius of the imaginary Circle Edge. The user can set a connection with SPV value.
•Contact Direction: Allows seeing the direction of contact with the sheet on the arc guide.
•No. of Inner Contact Points: Defines the additional contact points in one workpiece. For more information, click here.
•Contact Parameter: Modifies the contact parameter between assembly (web) and the linear guide. For more information, click here.
