Creates a cylinder tangent to two previously defined sheets. The cylinder is bounded by two previously defined planes.
Parameter |
Description |
surf1,surf2 |
Two existing sheets to be filleted. The two sheets may consist of two planes, a plane and a cylinder whose axis is parallel to the plane, or two cylinders with parallel axes. |
CENTER |
Minor word that indicates that a point is supplied which approximates the location of the cylinder axis. |
point1 |
A previously defined point which lies in the general direction of the cylinder axis. |
RADIUS |
Minor word that indicates that the radius of the cylinder is to be specified. |
r |
A positive value which establishes the cylinder radius. |
plane1,plane2 |
Two existing planes which serve as bounding planes for the cylinder. |
point2 |
A previously defined point which may be needed to determine which portion of the cylinder is created. Although the point is required in this cylinder definition, it is only significant when the bounding planes are not parallel and their intersection is in the cylinder. This condition causes a partial cylinder to exist on either side of plane1. The point serves to eliminate one of the possibilities. |
