cadex::MTKBase_Boss Class Reference

Describes a boss. In CNC Machining a boss is a protrusion or raised area on a workpiece that is created by removing material around it using a milling cutter. The boss feature can be used for various purposes such as providing a location for fasteners, creating a bearing surface, or serving as a mounting point for other components. More...

Detailed Description

Describes a boss. In CNC Machining a boss is a protrusion or raised area on a workpiece that is created by removing material around it using a milling cutter. The boss feature can be used for various purposes such as providing a location for fasteners, creating a bearing surface, or serving as a mounting point for other components.

Shape() method returns ModelData::Shell for this class.

Boss

Boss have the following basic parameters: width in mm, length in mm, height in mm.

Boss parameters

Examples

machining/feature_recognizer/Program.cs, machining/feature_recognizer/main.cxx, molding/feature_recognizer/Program.cs, and molding/feature_recognizer/main.cxx.
