Fillet Polyline

A>V>C>

Breaks all corners of a polyline and connects the sides with a smooth arc. Able to mate arc segments.

Trial

The Fillet Polyline (FP) command allows you to quickly draw a radius blend (i.e., fillet) at all corners of the polyline. Of course, you know that for this in AutoCAD and BricsCAD there is the _Fillet command, which even has the _Polyline option, i.e., theoretically, it can fillet all corners of a polyline at once, too. But Autodesk programmers have not coped with their task and for the past 20 years have not been able to correct errors. The _Fillet _P command produces amazing images that look more like an explosion at a macaroni factory than a smooth contour. And the guys from Bricsys did not strain at all and did not even try to make a fillet between arcuate segments. However, this feature is required by users. Especially if you are preparing the contours for milling and want to see how the round cutter passes in the corners. For the inlay of the milled parts into each other, for the luminous letters in the walls, it is also necessary to fillet all the corners; otherwise, the parts simply do not fit into each other. Everyone who faced similar problems is intended for this plugin.

Features of the program

  • Fillet corners between arcs and lines

  • Fillet all the corners of the polyline from the side of the cutter passage or from both sides.

  • Fillet a corner between two pre-selected polyline segments. Moreover, the segments do not have to be contiguous, and you can skip the chain of segments.

  • The program will increase the radius of all too-small arcs of the polyline to the given one.

  • The program itself can skip too obtuse angles.

  • The small trash segments of the polyline at the corner will be absorbed.

  • Original contours can be saved if you want.

  • The program will show on the command line how many fillets are made, how many corners are missing, and how many failed to fillet.

  • The program has common settings with all my CNC contour processing commands

  • You can switch between "CNC styles" (sets of settings) directly from the command line while selecting objects.

  • Outside Loop (OSL) and CNC Prepare (NCP) commands can call the FP program themselves.

The FP command is also included in the set A>V>C> Pro.

Regardless of the AutoCAD localization language, you can switch the plugin to English, Italian, German, Russian, Chinese (PRC), Spanish, French, or Turkish localization.

  • There are many cases in which it is impossible, in principle, to construct an arc of fillet. The laws of geometry cannot be fooled.
  • Narrow long "guts" into which a given mill does not pass, of course, will not fillet - this is simply impossible. To cut off this piece of contour, select 2 non-adjacent segments at the entrance to the gut (by pressing CTRL) and call FP. The program will try to make an arc between these segments and erase an impassable section of the contour.
  • The program does not attempt to lengthen segments before fillet. If the specified diameter is insufficient to reach from the end of one segment to the beginning of the second, then the fillet will not be built.
  • The program does not check the contour for bottlenecks. Perhaps there will be areas where the mill just does not fit. Check the resulting circuit using the _Offset command.
  • It is noticed that sometimes the _Offset command cannot process a polyline built by a program. This sometimes happens when the Offset must absorb one of the fillet arcs. Try slightly increasing the radius of the arcs (just pull the middle point to the ends of the arc) - this helps.
