Minimum Radius of Curvature |
|
The minimum radius of curvature is where undercutting will be flagged if the choice of Ignore Undercutting is set to Yes |
|
|
Minimum Arc Angle for Dwells |
|
Min Arc Angle is the angle of the smallest arc when the dwells are not arcs. This choice overrides the Dwell Incre Incr. Not valid now |
|
|
Ignore Undercutting Yes/No |
|
A choice of Yes here will not flag undercutting in the computation. If Yes, the curves may be self intersecting. |
|
|
Increment for Quick Compute |
|
This value is for computing the cam with an increment other than what was put in the Kinematics. This value may be less than one; therefore, you could have large increments in Kinematics and then a fine increment for the finish cam. |
|
|
Material to add to Outside of a Groove |
|
This value will add to the outside of a groove so that the groove can be Boolean Subtracted from the cylinder of a barrel cam, or the width of a plate cam. |
|
|
Is Dwell an Arc? |
|
A choice of Yes will make the dwells an arc with just a beginning and end point. A choice of No will make the dwells into increments of the angle entered in Minimum Arcs for Dwells (2) above. |
|
|
Default Clearance for a Groove |
|
This value is the default clearance between the follower OD and the width of a groove. |
