Detailed Description

Describes a rib.

In Injection Molding, a "rib" feature refers to a thin, wall-like protrusion from the main body of the part that is designed to add support or strength to the structure. Ribs are used to prevent distortion and maintain the strength of the part without increasing the amount of plastic material used, which keeps cost and weight low.

Shape() method returns ModelData::Shell for this class.
