Chamfer in AutoCAD
Many of the drawing when creating the question arises: "How to make a bevel in AutoCAD?" - In this article, I will fully answer this question.
Chamfer in AutoCAD - is the bevel edges of two objects or 2D-3D-adjacent faces of the body.
For the creation of the chamfer in AutoCAD meets the Chamfer command. Chamfer command in addition to the two-dimensional design in AutoCAD is also used in 3D modeling.
Examples refer to chamfers on the AutoCAD drawing.
Create a chamfer in AutoCAD possible on the lines, polylines, rays and infinite lines.
Call Chamfer command can be one of the following methods:
- Modify item from the menu bar - Chamfer line;
- Home tab of the ribbon tools - in the Modify group - the Chamfer button;
- on the Modify toolbar - Chamfer button;
- or to register the name of the team in the Chamfer command line.
The methods of constructing a chamfer
In AutoCAD, there are two ways of constructing a chamfer:
- Distance - a method of constructing a chamfer by two distances (enabled by default). chamfer distances are measured from the intersection of two objects.
- Angle - way to construct the chamfer length and angle.
Consider the methods of construction of the chamfer in more detail.
How to make a chamfer in AutoCAD by setting the two distances
Call the command Chamfer. prompted the command prompt:
Выберите первый отрезок или [оТменить/полИлиния/Длина/Угол/оБрезка/Метод/Несколько]:
(TRIM mode) Current chamfer Dist1 = 0.0000, Dist2 = 0.0000
Select first line or [Undo/Polyline/Distance/Angle/Trim/mEthod/Multiple]:
The top row displays the query bevel default settings that can be changed using the Chamfer command options.
Default Length1, Length2 = 0. If you use the zero values of the lengths of the chamfer, then AutoCAD will not build a chamfer.
Select the Distance option. AutoCAD prompts:
Specify first chamfer distance <0.0000>:
Ask first distance 10 mm chamfer and press Enter. AutoCAD displays the following question:
Specify second chamfer distance <10.0000>:
If the second chamfer distance equal to the first, then press Enter, ie agree with the default value. Press Enter. AutoCAD will repeat the request:
Select first line or [Undo/Polyline/Distance/Angle/Trim/mEthod/Multiple]:
Select the first line click (of the rectangle).
Side rectangle is highlighted in blue (when hardware acceleration). AutoCAD will issue the following query:
Select second line or shift-select to apply corner or [Distance/Angle/Method]:
When you hover over a second adjacent sides of the rectangle AutoCAD will display a preview of the chamfer. As soon as we mention the second side of the rectangle, the chamfer will be built, and Chamfer command closes down.
How to make a chamfer in AutoCAD by setting the distance and angle
Call the command Chamfer, and then select the Angle option. At the command prompt, you are prompted:
Specify chamfer length on the first line <0.0000>:
We define the chamfer length of 2 mm, and press Enter. AutoCAD prompts you:
Specify chamfer angle from the first line <0>:
We define the chamfer angle of the first segment of 45 degrees, and press Enter. AutoCAD will repeat the request:
Select first line or [Undo/Polyline/Distance/Angle/Trim/mEthod/Multiple]:
Select the first line chamfer, which appointed the length and angle (of the rectangle). AutoCAD displays the following query:
Select second line or shift-select to apply corner or [Distance/Angle/Method]:
When you hover over a second adjacent sides of the rectangle AutoCAD display a preview of the chamfer. As soon as we mention the second side of the rectangle, the chamfer will be built, and Chamfer command closes down.
Option Method A chamfer command in AutoCAD
Option Method - allows you to explicitly switch between methods of setting the bevel Angle and Distance.
At first glance, this option may seem unnecessary, but the Method option can speed up the execution of drawings in AutoCAD. In the drawings there Avtokad several facets of different sizes. The most common sizes of 2 × 45º chamfer and 1.5 × 45 °. Use the Distance and Angle options, you can specify the chamfer in AutoCAD in two sizes, then during the construction of the chamfers select the desired size using the Method option.
Construction of the chamfer in AutoCAD clipping and without clipping
Optional Trim Chamfer command - allows you to specify whether or not you want to trim the ends of the segments of the chamfer.
By default chamfer creation in AutoCAD is made with trimming. Call the command Chamfer, and then select the option Trim. At the command prompt, you are prompted:
Enter Trim mode option [Trim/No trim] <Trim>:
Click the right mouse button and from the context menu select the command No trim. AutoCAD will repeat the request:
Select first line or [Undo/Polyline/Distance/Angle/Trim/mEthod/Multiple]:
Select the first line chamfer (of the rectangle), is assigned to the length and the angle 2 × 45 ° (bevel setting method in AutoCAD from a previous build). AutoCAD prompts you:
Select second line or shift-select to apply corner or [Distance/Angle/Method]:
You can change the method of constructing a chamfer in AutoCAD using the Method option, and specify the new size tazhke chamfering using the options: Distance, Angle. Select a serial option Method - Distance, then indicate the second segment (adjacent sides of the rectangle). Once select the second side of the rectangle, AutoCAD build a chamfer 10 × 10 without cutting all sides of the rectangle, and Chamfer command closes down.
Create a chamfer in AutoCAD with automatic bevel all corners of a polyline
Option Polyline Chamfer command - set mode, which allows for a time to make a chamfer on the entire two-dimensional polylines.
Attention
- If the Trim option is not set to No trim, chamfer becomes the new straight segment polylines.
- Polyline segments that are too short for the construction of the chamfer are ignored (chamfer not built).
- A chamfer built only between the straight line segments of the polyline.
We perform bevel corners of the rectangle in AutoCAD. Call the command Chamfer, and then select the Polyline option. AutoCAD prompts you:
Select 2D polyline or [Distance/Angle/Method]:
Select the rectangle (is a closed polyline). When you hover the crosshair cursor on the 2D-polyline (rectangle), AutoCAD will display a preview of the rectangle with cut corners.
Once you select a rectangle, AutoCAD add chamfer all vertices of 2D-polyline (make bevel all corners of a polyline between straight line segments), and Chamfer command closes down.
Cyclic mode Chamfer command works
Chamfer command in AutoCAD can operate in a cyclic mode. Responsible for this mode Multiple command option. This option allows you to continue to create the chamfer in AutoCAD after the first application Chamfer tool.
Chamfer build mode in AutoCAD with pruning.
Objects automatically being completed, the ends are cut at the points of the chamfer.
Chamfer build mode in AutoCAD without pruning.
A chamfer is constructed. The objects are not automatically being completed and ends at the points of the chamfer is not trimmed.
