Part Cone

Description

A parametric truncated Part Cone primitive is available in the Part workbench from the Part tool bar, Part menu (primitives sub-menu) and the Create Primitives dialogue.

*A Part Cone with the parameter "Angle" set to 270 degrees and all other parameters are set to their default values.*

Usage

  1. Switch to the Part Workbench
  2. There are two ways to invoke the command:
    • Press the Cone button in the toolbar.
    • Select the Part → Primitives → Cone from the menu bar.

Result: The default values create a truncated parametric cone that is positioned at the origin (point 0,0,0) and attached to the global xy-plane. Its height of 10 mm is along the global z-axis. The lower Radius 1 is 2 mm, the upper Radius 2 is 4 mm.

The cone properties can later be edited, either in the Property editor or by double-clicking the cone in the Tree view.

Properties

  • Radius 1: Radius of the arc or circle defining the lower face

  • Radius 2: Radius of the arc or circle defining the upper face

  • Height: Height of the Part Cone

  • Angle: Number of degrees of the arc or circles defining the upper and lower faces of the truncated cone. The default 360° creates circular faces, a lower value will create a portion of a cone as defined by upper and lower faces each with edges defined by an arc of the number of degrees and two radii.
