Subtract, via Rotation (3-D)

3-D Standard > Process with sketch > SubtRot

The subtraction is created here by partial or full rotation of a sketch about an axis.

To create a subtraction by rotation, proceed as follows:

  1. Activate Subtract, With rotation as a cross-section movement.
  2. By activating/deactivating the Segment checkbox, define whether you want a partial or full rotation to be performed. In the case of a partial rotation, activate the Dynamic checkbox or specify the start and end angles explicitly.
  3. If you want to use an already existing sketch, click the Select sketch button and identify the sketch.
    To create a new sketch, click the New sketch button. HiCAD displays the Sketch tab. Create the sketch you want.
  4. Click the Select rotation axis button. Identify the axis in the drawing.
  5. Click the Preview button to display the result. With dynamic determination of the rotation segment, use the cursor to define the angle of rotation and then press the left mouse button. You can then still correct the angle.
  6. Click Apply to insert the subtraction as displayed in the preview.
