1D-fillet

1D-fillet feature creates fillets on the vertices of a wire. The fillet may be performed on sharp corners of a wire, which are shared exactly between 2 edges, and which are placed ona single plane.

To create a 1D-fillet in the active part:

  1. select in the Main Menu Feature - > 1D-fillet item or

  2. click fillet1d.icon 1D-fillet button in the toolbar

There are 2 types of fillet:

../_images/fillet1d_wire.png

fillet all sharp corners on a wire

../_images/fillet1d_points.png

fillet only the specified corners

Fillet a wire

The property panel for this mode is shown below.

../_images/Fillet1DPanel_Wire.png

Property panel of an operation to fillet all sharp corners on a wire

Input fields:

  • Wires panel contains the list of wires for the operation. The fillet will be performed to the applicable corners. If the wire has no such corner, the error message will be shown;

  • Radius defines the fillet radius.

TUI Command:

model.addFillet(Part_doc, wires, radius)
Parameters
  • Part_doc (document) – The current part object.

  • wires (list) – A list of wires subject to fillet operation in format model.selection(TYPE, shape).

  • radius (double) – Radius value.

Returns

Created object.

Result

Result of Fillet a wire is shown below. In this case all vertices were sharp, thus, filleted.

Fillet the specified vertices on a wire

Alternatively, there is a possibility to create a fillet on a special sharp corners of a wire.

Property panel to fillet the specified vertices of a wire

Input fields:

  • Vertices panel contains list of vertices on a wires applicable for fillet operation;

  • Radius defines the fillet radius.

TUI Command:

model.addFillet(Part_doc, vertices, radius)
param document Part_doc

The current part object.

param list vertices

A list of vertices subject to fillet operation in format model.selection(TYPE, shape).

param double radius

Radius value.

return

Created object.

Result

Result of Fillet by vertices is shown below. The only 2 corners of the wire become smooth.
