Specifies the bend radius to the molded surface. The molded bend radius is automatically calculated based on the inner radius, plate thickness, plate thickness direction, and plate offset if any. This box is read-only.

An example potential knuckle radius is shown in the following figure. The inner knuckle's radius is defined as the angle less than 180 degrees at the knuckle.

If the plate thickness direction is from left to right, the software calculates the following:

Molded radius at the left side = Inner radius at the left side;
Molded radius at the right side of the plate - Inner radius at the right side + plate thickness

If the plate thickness direction is from right to left, the software calculates the following:

Molded radius at the left side = Inner radius at left side + plate thickness;
Molded radius at the right side of the plate = Inner radius at the right side.

1 - Plate part

2 - Plate thickness

3 - Inner knuckle radius

4 - Outer knuckle radius
