Input graphic.
Change into the menu draw, and input the 2D paths for the
relief object.
Input cross.
The cross is created by 2 cylinders blended using OR. For this input
a vertical line with the end points [PosnA, X=0,
Y=2.5mm], [PosnE, X=0, Y=42.5mm] and a horizontal line with end
points [PosnA, X= -13.5mm, Y=27.5mm], [PosnE, X=13.5mm, Y=27.5mm].
Mark
both lines, change into ReliefVTR and
generate an empty relief using New relief. You can retain the proposed resolution for a
first test. |
 |
In
ReliefVTR the marked adopted graphic is displayed in the
colour greenish blue.
Here select the function Cylinder. following the request Select first track
select the two line. |
Progression:
 |
Select Progression . Select section . Radius + and specify
the exact radius progression (inputs comp. image, height = 3.5mm).

Save the polyline, e.g. under the name
CrossRadius in the directory PROJECT.
Note:
Although a similar progression can also be generated using section
selection, this, however, does not correspond to an exact radius. |
Ends:
 |
Select Ends cropped. |
Sides:
 |
Select Sides = double-sided. |
Base height:
 |
Leave the Base height at 0. |
Logic:
 |
Select the logic OR (max). |

Input ellipses into the
middle of the cross.
1 |
Select the menu draw |
2 |
Select EllipseMP
Rx,Ry. |
3 |
Input the centre with X=0 and Y=27.5mm. |
4 |
Input the extension with radius X=3.3mm,
radius Y=4.65mm. |
5 |
Mark
the input ellipse, and change into the function operate
. displace contour. |
6 |
Here, using Offset=0.5mm, correction inwards, round-off around
and
preserve original, calculate
a second inwards displaced ellipse. |
7 |
Mark
the first ellipse again and, using
displace contour and offset=1.7mm,
calculate a further ellipse (all other inputs remain unchanged). |
8 |
Mark the 3 ellipses and change into ReliefVTR. |
 |
Select Border + Plan, mark the outer ellipse and specify the parameters
Surface height = 3.5mm, Border progression OFF and
Logic = OR (comp. image). |
 |
Select Border + Plan, mark the outer ellipse and specify the parameters
Progression: Radius = 0.5mm, Surface height = 0, Border
progression ON and
Logic = ADD (comp. image). For the surface relief progression
this time select the standard polyline input:
End height of the polyline = 0.5mm, Start value = 0, Width of the
polyline = 05mm, Start angle = 0, End angle = 90°.
The program automatically generates a
name and saves the polyline in the PROJECT
directory. |
 |
Select Border
+ Plan, mark the inner ellipse and specify the parameters
Surface height = 0.5mm, Border progression OFF and
Logic = Sub (comp. image). |
 |
The relief generated up to this point. |
 |
Select the menu draw.
Draw the curves on the previous relief.
For this you can display the relief as background image. Now
construe the lines (comp. graphic).
Mark
the lines and change into ReliefVTR. |
 |
Here, select the function Cylinder
and select all lines using a rectangle. Input the parameter
using Progression 0.2mm x
0.15mm, ends rounded off, base height = 0, Logic = SUB. |
 |
The relief generated up to this point. |
 |
Raise the cross with surroundings.
A contour around the relief surface can be determined.
For this select Edit
relief . layer border . ABSOLUTE. Here select a Z point
somewhat bigger than 0. After confirmation using <R>
open a window for the positioning of the border search. Displace the
level so far downwards until the cross is just black enough to raise
it from the background. The setting Concentrate is set to the
smallest value. After the start you obtain a border around the
cross.
Select Back in the CAD.
The contour is adopted marked.
Select the function operate .
displace contour. Here, calculate an outwards displaced contour Offset=1.0mm,
correction outwards, rounding off pointed and
delete original .
Select edit . round off corners,
input a corner radius of
6.0mm und click-on the 4 internal corners one after the other
following parameter input. These corners are now rounded off.
Mark
the contour and change to ReliefVTR. |
 |
Select Border
+ Plan, mark the contour and specify the parameters
Surface height = 0.7mm, Border run off and logic = ADD (comp.
image). |
 |
The relief generated up to this point. |
 |
Input AHSoft signature.
Change to back in the CAD.
Import the AHSoft signature.
Edit the signature as shown in the graphic.
Mark
the signature and change to ReliefVTR. |
 |
Select Border
+ Plan, mark the contour and specify the parameters
Surface height = 0.6mm, Border

Relief graphic
with object lines. |
At the end the object should appear as shown in the image. |
The finished relief. |
Calculate milling data.
If
the graphic is in order then calculate the relief again using the desired
milling resolution. For further courses of action please observe the Relief work specification . Calculate milling
data.
Finished!
