Mcam 2018 Fillet Chains / Chamfers question...

Recommended Posts

Good morning all.

I use these features all the time to apply radii to square rectangular apertures...but once in a while I need to turn them back into square-corner openings or O.D.'s.

Is there an "Un- Fillet" Chains command I can add to my toolbar? I looked through the All Commands but didn't see one called "Un-fillet" or "Remove fillet".

Before finally upgrading to '18 last year, our Mcam version was X6...I don't believe that version had this kind of command either but it was quite a gulf of time between X6 and '18 so I was hoping... ???

Anyway, thank you in advance .

 

Rob.

That is more or less exactly what I do. I copy my pre-Chain-filleted geometry to another level, delete the fillets, and retrim the corners square.

Since one can simply select the Chain tool, click on the geometry, click Fillet Chains, and wind up with properly radiused corners with @ a half-dozen mouse-clicks, one would think there would be a way to reverse the process just as simply.

That's what I was hoping for.
