Create fillets

  • Radius with 2 elements

    Create a fillet between two lines.

    Example 1

    1. Select first line/circle [Select first line/circle]

    2. Choose second line/circle [Choose second line/circle]

      -> An arc is attached to the cursor.

    3. Select radius [Choose radius]: Determine the radius [Radius] of the arc by positioning the mouse cursor.

    4. If necessary, adjust the exact radius [Radius] in the Edit element window.

    The arc is tangent to the lines.

[Note]Note

In addition to the option inside the sketch described here there is a simplified method in the 3D view to create fillets. See Section 7.6.2.11, “ Blend ( add chamfer/rounding...) ”.

Create chamfers

    1. Choose chamfer start on first line [Choose chamfer start on first line]

    2. Choose chamfer end on second line [Choose chamfer end on second line]

    3. Determine the exact distance [Distance] and angle [Angle] in the Edit element window.

    Example 1

    1. Choose chamfer start on first line [Choose chamfer start on first line]

    2. Choose chamfer end on second line [Choose chamfer end on second line]

    3. Determine the distance [Distance] (chamfer length) and angle [Angle] in the Edit element window.

    Example 2 (the lines are clicked in reverse order)

    [Note]Note

    Distance refers to the first clicked line.

    Example 1

    1. Choose chamfer start on first line [Choose chamfer start on first line]

    2. Choose chamfer end on second line [Choose chamfer end on second line]

    3. Determine the distance [Distance] (feed length) and angle [Angle] in the Edit element window.

      1. Choose chamfer start on first line [Choose chamfer start on first line]

      2. Choose chamfer end on second line [Choose chamfer end on second line]

      3. Determine the distance [Distance] (feed length) and angle [Angle] in the Edit element window.

  • Chamfer centered at 2 lines defined by distance to intersection [Chamfer centered at 2 lines defined by distance to intersection]

    45° chamfer between 2 lines, adjustable via the chamfer's distance to the (imaginary) intersection of both lines.

    1. Select first line:

    2. Select second line [Choose second line]:

      (The sequence does not make a difference.)

    3. Select distance via point [Select distance by point]: Adjust the desired spacing in the Edit element docking window.

      [Note]Note

      It is also possible to place the chamfer outside the outlined body, although this feature will only be officially available for future versions and is only an internal test version with V12.8.

  • Chamfer centered at 2 lines defined by chamfer length [Chamfer centered at 2 lines defined by chamfer length]

    45° chamfer between 2 lines, adjustable via the length of the chamfer.

    1. Select first line:

    2. Select second line [Choose second line]:
