Creating a Round feature

To create a Round feature:

  2. Select Round, then click Next to open the New Feature - Curves page.
  3. Click Next to open the New Feature - Machining Side page.
  4. Click Next to open the New Feature - Location page. The Location page shows you the Z height of the curve. Enter an offset value if you want to change the height of the round.
  5. Click Next to open the New Feature - Dimensions page.

    If a dimension field has a blue label, you can click it and 'pick' the dimension from objects in the graphics window.

  6. Enter a value for the Radius of the edge break. This corresponds to the radius of the rounding tool selected to cut the feature.

  8. Click Next to open the New Feature - Operations page.
  9. Click Next to open the New Feature - Default Tool page for the first operation.
  10. Click Next to open the New Feature - Feed/Speed page for the first operation.
  11. If you have more than one operation, clicking Next opens the New Feature - Default Tool page for the next operation. If you have no more operations, clicking Next opens the New Feature - Summary page.
  12. Click Finish to create the feature and exit the wizard or click Back to return to previous pages.

You can edit the feature later.
