Revolution Fuse: definition by angles

  • Base objects - contains a list of objects selected in the Object Browser or in the Viewer, which will be revolved.

  • Axis - axis of revolution.

  • To angle - end angle of revolution.

  • From angle- start angle of revolution.

  • Fuse with contains a list of objects which will be fused with the result of revolution.

TUI Command:

model.addRevolutionFuse(part, objectsToRevolve, axis, angle, objectToFuse)
Parameters
  • part – The current part object.

  • list – A list of objects for revolution.

  • object – An axis.

  • real – Angle.

  • list – A list of objects to fuse with.

Returns

Created object.

model.addRevolutionFuse(part, objectsToRevolve, axis, toAngle, fromAngle, objectToFuse)

Revolution Fuse: definition by bounding planes

  • Base objects - contains a list of objects selected in the Object Browser or in the Viewer, which will be revolved.

  • Axis - axis of revolution.

  • To plane - a planar face can be selected to bound revolution from one side.

  • To offset - offset for revolution or for bounding plane, if selected.

  • From plane - a planar face can be selected to bound revolution from other side.

  • From offset - offset for revolution or for bounding plane, if selected.

  • Fuse with - contains a list of objects which will be fused with the result of revolution.

TUI Command:

model.addRevolutionFuse(part, objectsToRevolve, axis, toObject, toOffset, fromObject, fromOffset, objectToFuse)
Parameters
  • part – The current part object.

  • list – A list of objects for revolution.

  • object – An axis.

  • object – To object.

  • real – To offset.

  • object – From object.

  • real – From offset.

  • list – A list of objects to fuse with.

Returns

Created object.
