Chamfers
for constructing only isolated chamfers. Therefore, when constructing chamfers on the surfaces of revolution
or two-sided chamfers on the edges of faceted parts, you will have to add the missing construction lines
manually.
Remember that this chamfer creation technique works only in the case when the parameter is set
among the operation parameters, “Auto change Hatches”.
After selecting the type of the chamfer being created and defining the necessary parameters, you need to
select the node at which the chamfer will be constructed. This is done by the option .
The selected node must belong to a hatch contour. Upon
selecting the node, the chamfer and the construction entities
used for its creation are constructed automatically according to
the specified parameters.
The direction of creating the angular chamfer is determined by the system automatically (depending on
where the hatch contour lies).
Chamfer creation by the node through which two graphic lines are passing
This technique is used when the graphic lines are already applied on the drawing. A chamfer created in this
way is drawn as a graphic entity. All construction entities necessary for the chamfer creation are produced
automatically.
When creating a chamfer in this way, make sure that no more than two graphic lines are passing
through the selected node. Otherwise, we recommend using another way of chamfer creation,
described below.
To create an isolated chamfer, in the operation
parameters select the desired chamfer type and set the
necessary parameters. After that, specify the node
through which two graphic lines are passing.
The direction of creating the angular chamfer is determined by the system automatically (depending on
where the graphic lines lie).
For inner chamfer creation, we recommend using the special chamfer types intended for this purpose. The
pointer should be positioned in this case on the desired side of the chamfer creation.
When creating dual chamfers, upon defining the parameters just select two nodes where two respective pairs
of graphic lines intersect. The pointer position is of no importance in this case.
Chamfer Creation by Graphic Lines
This technique, as well as the previous one, is used when the graphic lines are already applied on the
drawing. The chamfer created in this way is displayed as a graphic entity. The existing graphic entities are
