Lateral surface: Circular element
This function defines a circular arc on a lateral surface.
Call the arcs menu.
Select the direction of rotation.
Enter the arc dimensions and define the transition to the next element.
Parameters
End point of arc
Z
End point
P
End point – polar
CY
End point – angle as “linear dimension”
C
End point – angle
Center of arc
K
Center
CJ
Center point (angle as “linear dimension”)
b
Center point in polar coordinates (reference angle:
positive XK axis)
PM
Center point – polar
Other parameters
R
Arc radius
Tangential/nontangential: Specify the transition to the
next contour element
WA
Angle between positive Z axis and tangent in starting point of
arc
WE
Angle between positive Z-axis and tangent in end point of arc
WV
Counterclockwise angle between preceding element and
tangent in starting point of arc. If the preceding element is an
arc: Angle to the tangent.
WN
Counterclockwise angle between tangent in arc end point
and following element. If the following element is an arc:
Angle to the tangent.
