6.6 C-Axis Contours
Linear Hole Pattern, Linear Figure Pattern
Parameters
XK, YK: Starting point of pattern in Cartesian coordinates
α, P:
Starting point of pattern in polar coordinates (reference
angle
α: positive XK axis)
Q:
Number of holes/figures—default: 1
I, J:
end point of pattern in Cartesian coordinates
Ii, Ji:
Distance between two figures in XK/YK direction
β:
Angle to the longitudinal axis of the pattern (reference: XK
axis)
L:
Total length of pattern
Li:
Distance between two figures (pattern distance)
Hole description/figure description
“Type of dimensioning“ soft keys
Linear pattern: Enter the length
Linear pattern: Enter the angle
In patterns with circular slots, the “center
of curvature“ is added to the pattern
position (see User’s Manual, “
4.5.8
Circular Pattern with Circular Slots“).
Circular Hole Pattern, Circular Figure Pattern
Parameters
XK, YK: Center of pattern in Cartesian coordinates
α, PM: Center of pattern in polar coordinates (reference angle α:
positive XK axis)
Q:
Number of figures
Orientation:
■
Clockwise n
■
Counterclockwise
R/K:
Radius/diameter of pattern
A, W:
Starting angle, end angle—position of first/last figure
(reference: XK axis)—special cases:
■
Without A and W: Full-circle subdivision, beginning with
0°
■
Without W: Full-circle subdivision
Wi:
Angle between two figures (algebraic sign has no effect)
Position of figures:
■
Normal position: The original figure is rotated about the
pattern center (rotation about the pattern center)
■
Original position: The position of the original figure
remains (translation)
